Well folks, we did it. We finished season 2.

SIBLINGS UNITE. This is the finale of Season 2 and buddy we got the big one for it: our older sister Olivia. She also grew up with a love for MitM, but perhaps didn't have the same drive to create an entire podcast about it... strange...We cover this fantastic episode in incredible detail, stopping along the way to tell some good 'ol anecdotes, and the whole thing is really just a delight. This episode hits hard with Hal and Lois at their wits end once again, fearing another pregnancy that

Well folks, season 2 winds down with this penultimate episode EVACUATION which finds Hal and Dewey threaten the lifeblood of their town and all its inhabitants. Also, Francis goes on a date with a 12 year old girl. Fun! Willa and I talk about all sorts of stuff, you'll love it.

2025/11/10

Oh buddy do we have another guest for you who is a total stranger! This week, Ryan's roommate Tavi joins the sibs to talk Carnival. You may remember Tavi from the infamous "Piglet gets washed by Roo without her knowing it's not her son" anecdote (s2 e6 'Convention').This episode is full of Stevie sass, Hal/Lois lust, and the ever cool headed Gorak. Oh, and the cuteness meter is back... and this time it's controversial.Thanks so much for listening! Love you Linwood

2025/10/27

Folks, our favorite sadist Francis Wilkerson has pitted his beloved brothers against each other. Ryan and Willa chop it up about this CLASSIC episode of M in the M -- it's got everything: Dewey putting cat medicine in his ears, Lois burning down a house, Reese and Malcolm debasing themselves for approval, etc.Worry not: we do discuss in detail the blooper reel that plays at the end of this episode, which left Ryan shaken to his core (I'm trembling now as I type this!).Enjoy!!

We compare Hal and Lois's parenting styles, dissect Dewey's mind-games, and call Francis a prick in this edition of Yes, No, Maybe. Enjoy!!

Meanwhile, Francis is battling Lois and living in absolute hell (what else is new!) and Dewey befriends a fly. Beers were drank, weather was discussed, the energy is absolutely electric, and we love you all.
