No Loan Again, Naturally (S20E12)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/05/01

Not only is this episode's story a showcase for just how despicable The Simpsons have become, but it also features arguably the darkest and bleakest moment in the history of the show. Basically, Homer blows the family's savings and they lose their house, Flanders buys it and rents it back to them, but soon evicts them after they abuse his generousity.Meanwhile, since it's Easter, we also discuss Guy's latest hot-cross-buns escapades, the Simpsons writers losing our trust and Dando's new

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/04/16

The Four Finger Discount family recently lost our beloved pooch Jet, so to pay tribute we've gone back and revisited one of the more heartfelt episodes from the earlier seasons, Bart's Dog Gets An F.We discuss how revisiting the episode helped Dando grieve the loss of Jet, the history of Tracey Ullman's turbulent relationship with the series, the simplistic but effective use of Marge's quilt to drive the story and more.If you enjoy this review, please consider supporting us on Patreon for as little

2025/04/11

For the first time in his life, Homer is financially liable for his actions. Can he last 3 hours without hurting himself? Meanwhile, Springfield Elementary are preparing to take the Vice President's Assessment Test, which means all of the trouble-makers are sent on a joyride to Capitol City with Skinner.

Mr Plow (with Aaron Gocs)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/03/28

Call Mr. Gocs, that's his name, that name again is Mr. Gocs! That's right, the hilarious Aaron Gocs joined us this week to review the classic "Mr. Plow".There were many flurries of passion as we dove deep into what makes this episode so fantastic. Whether it's the spot-on guest cameos, the absurdity of Springfield's weather or deciding who was the villain in this scenario, there was so much to dissect.If you enjoy this review, please consider supporting us on Patreon for as little as $1 per month

Take My Life, Please (S20E10)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/03/21

Homer learns that he should have won class president back in high school, which leads to a bizarre "Tales Of Interest" type story where Luigi's crazy chef shows Homer the future he could have had. Safe to stay, we'd all rather live in the sauce.We also discuss having sex on a beach, the new HD era, best movie twists and more.If you enjoy this review, please consider supporting us on Patreon for as little as $1 per month at patreon.com/fourfingerdiscountListen on Spotify - spoti.fi/4fDcSY0Listen on

Lisa The Drama Queen (S20E09)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/03/12

If you think Juliette was insane with her visions of Equalia, perhaps you should take a look at the writers for even conjuring this episode together in the first place. An absolute stinker that never seemed to know what it was, or even what it wanted to be, which is unfortunate because there were several interesting directions that could've been taken.We also discuss another Simpsons "heel" theory, Dando wetting the bed, the best way to eat a peach and more.If you enjoy this review, please consider

The Burns And The Bees (S20E08)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/03/06

CAUTION! This week's episode is filled with stingers AND zingers as we tackle 'The Burns and the Bees', an episode that kinda just feels, "there". Apparently the fate of the world's bees falls on Lisa's shoulders (well, her face) and nobody seems to care besides her. Meanwhile Mr. Burns looks to Marc Cuban on how a billionaire can have fun AND be rich. Meh.We also discuss Dando's son getting hit in the face with a cricket bat, our latest battle with Facebook, the importance of seeking help when

2025/02/27

No need for the blown gasket, listeners! Although we can understand why you'd be excited for our review of "Lady Bouvier's Lover", featuring what Dando considers to be one of the biggest heel turns in Simpsons history.We also discuss the legendary Simpsons' rumpus room, Guy's love of hot-cross bun variants, watching late-night infomercials in the 90s and more.As a parent, this is without a doubt one of the most relatable episodes of all time.

MyPods And Boomsticks (S20E07)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/02/13

A pretty controversial theme for a Simpsons episode, even if it does feel like it came 5 years too late. Essentially, Bart befriends a muslim boy and Homer quickly assumes he and his family are terrorists. Meanwhile, Lisa becomes obsessed with Mapple products.We also discuss becoming hackers, pointless calendars, buying new Simpsons PJs and more.Support the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access to every show we produce, as well as 100 hours of exclusive content!

Homer And Lisa Exchange Cross Words (S20E06)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2025/02/06

It's another "Lisa angry at Homer" story where Lisa changes her last name to Bouvier, after he (successfully) bets against her in a crossword tournament when she admits she's likely to fail. Did he do anything wrong? Yes and no.Meanwhile, there was a real wasted opportunity to focus on Gil being the smimy heel of the tournament. More evil Gil!We also discuss the lacklustre break-up of Skinner and Mrs. K, why we tend to self sabotage, as well as which beloved character should be killed off

Miracle On Evergreen Terrace

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2024/12/24

It's the holiday season here at FFD studios, so we've gone back and revisited this classic that sees Bart accidentally burn down the family Christmas tree and presents. There's lots to love (Brockman's news reports, Homer's parking hack, etc) however it also features Dando's LEAST favourite Simpsons moment of the golden era.It's not the best Christmas "episode", that's saved for with "Marge Be Not Proud" or the pilot, however it's arguably the best Simpsons Christmas "special".

Dangerous Curves (S20E05)

Four Finger Discount (Simpsons Podcast) ·

2024/12/19

Worst. Episode. Ever. Well, worst episode so far at least. Just an absolute head-scratcher that leaves you disliking pretty much every character that appears.Basically, Homer and Marge find out that they both came close to cheating on each other five years. Yep. Apparently "marriage in crisis" is the only story that the writers know what to do with flashbacks these days.If it's rants you're after, you've come to the right place.Support the Four Finger Discount Network for EARLY & AD-FREE access
