While we wait for Futurama to return, we take a break and talk about the 1989 Weird Al film UHF.

Obviously, Mike likes it, but what does Ben think? What is a UHF anyway?

Ben demands plot relevancy in his sandwiches. Mike is in his natural element.

The first order of Hulu episodes is done, and we're here to give our thoughts about it. What did we like? Did we like things? Let's find out. See you in season 10! Or season 13. Whatever it is we hope you're there. Ben turns neutral. Mike turns the camera on society.

This is it. It's over. The Planet Express Ship is dead and so is the show. (Not really. There will be more episodes to come next season!) Fry experiences Deja Vu. Not really. It's somehow all the things that were and could be and also a ghost ship of the Planet Express ship. I feel a little bit like I'm typing nonsense into this episode description, but am I wrong about any of it? No. Meanwhile, we're talking about things I'm pretty sure the PodDecks have given us before, the perils of a rewatch show turning into a recap show, how we can't remember what we even had for breakfast, and more! Ben fails upward. Mike shows some ass respect.…

1:20:10

It's an anthology episode! Hooray(?) We're looking at three different mysteries: Lancy Trew, FryFry, and Wikipedia Brown. It's... certainly an episode of television. Meanwhile, we're talking about infinite tacos vs. infinite sushi, whether or not cream cheese soda would be good, whether the rest of the world thinks we're weird for chili, and many more! Don't forget, we're sending out stickers to anybody who donates $5 or more to any of the organizations listed in this article to help with hurricane relief: BPR News — Ways to donate and help flood victims in Western North Carolina after Hurricane Helene https://www.bpr.org/bpr-news/2024-09-28/list-ways-to-donate-and-help-flood-victims-in-western-north-carolina-after-hurricane-helene Also! Ben was on an episode of The Great and Secret Knowledge, talking about the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz! You can check it out here: https://greatandsecretknowledge.libsyn.com/the-wizard-of-oz-1939-with-ben-mooney Ben likes his cream cheese soda. Mike chooses Big Pink.…

Amy gets heavily into the world of collecting Fuzzy Funbags, a clear Beanie Babies analog, and she does it at the expense of her own children and some orphans. This probably also happened with Beanie Babies in the 90s, just don't think too hard about it! Also, a bunch of different DOOP bases have had a strange number of deaths that is probably not related. Just don't think too hard about it! Meanwhile we're reinventing Pod Decks and trying to start a new Pod Deck Cast. Sorry? Ben throws out some baseball cards. Mike buys some tulips.…

Hermes follows in his dad's footsteps by leaving his family to harvest that dank Jamaican... coffee. And Planet Express becomes Planet Espresso (hey! That's the name of the episode!) Meanwhile, we're talking about the things people are obsessed with that we just don't get, and also talk about Twin Peaks an awful lot considering neither one of us has really watched it. Stay tuned for Twin to the Peakarama coming this winter! (This will not be happening.) Don't forget, we're sending out stickers to anybody who donates $5 or more to any of the organizations listed in this article to help with hurricane relief: BPR News — Ways to donate and help flood victims in Western North Carolina after Hurricane Helene https://www.bpr.org/bpr-news/2024-09-28/list-ways-to-donate-and-help-flood-victims-in-western-north-carolina-after-hurricane-helene Ben considers becoming a Twin Peaks Guy.

Special Announcement: Hurricane Relief Fundraiser 6:24

Hello! As I'm sure you are already aware, there is some terrible flooding and damage in the southeastern United States right now due to hurricane Helene. We also happen to have a lot of Back to the Futurama stickers sitting around. How are those two things related? Well... if you donate $5 or more to any of the charities on this list from bpr.org and send us a screenshot of the receipt, we'll send you one of those stickers and a handwritten note. That's it! Simple as that. Pick your preferred charity off this list and let us know about it and get probably the most expensive sticker of your life — but you can rest easy knowing that the money you spent will go to those in need instead of two dinguses on the internet who talk about a thrice-canceled TV show.

The Professor gives up on his first love (science) to dive headfirst into his first love (fashion). It's sort of like the "Distracted Boyfriend" meme but it's just the Professor looking at fashion. What is the worst that could go wrong here? Meanwhile, we're talking about what it would cost to sell our toe(?) and also who we would main in a Smash Bros. style Futurama game with every single character. Don't forget to check out the Climate Town episode "Fast Fashion is Hot Garbage" at the following link. Tell 'em that Back to the Futurama sent you. They will be very confused by this: https://youtu.be/F6R_WTDdx7I?si=BcVZYP38CBXlz5Bb Ben gets ennui. Mike gets a Slurm Factory F-shirt.…

Leela gets a new friend and joins a book club. The boys start their own book club. Somehow all this leads to somebody drowning in a giant wine bottle. How does that make any sense? Listen to the episode and we'll find out together. Meanwhile, we talk about some superstitions and what beverages we want to drown in and then serve at our own funeral. The clip of "Make New Friends" comes from Miss Nina on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3V8S-gzjaMc Ben protects a mug. Mike hates a book.…

After a brief hiatus, we're back, baby! And we're talking about how Bender falls in love with a beautiful fembot and the sport of bug fighting. Amy takes a stance on animal rights (as long as those animals are not pigs), and Fry drops his cerveza hat. Meanwhile, we're talking about bad pickup lines and our favorite cold winter foods. Ben sleeps under a pile of cats. Mike eats some Beyond Buggalo.…

Mike is going to be out of the country for a few weeks! Luckily, we managed to get this week's episode ahead of time. Sure, it may be on an old VHS tape, but everything seems on the up-and-up. Ben is assigned a mascot. Mike recognizes the Jeopardy! font.

Fry is behaving strange... he likes his job, he is using soap? Is this even the same Fry? It turns out... no, it is not. It's.................................... uh....................... Frank. That's right. Meanwhile, we're talking about the various strategies for progression of time in cartoons that last forever (and trust us, Futurama will last forever because we'll have to do this podcast until we are dead), and the things that we wish we loved. We wish that you love this podcast! Enjoy! Or don't, we're not the boss of you. Ben guesses what the context is about. Mike bathes in cilantro.…

It's Fry's birthday! And instead of the two hours of staring into the void like he wants, he instead gets a surprise birthday party re-enacting all his childhood trauma. We watch basically everybody die as they compete to survive here in the Quids Game. We also talk about which celebrity chef we would like to cook us a meal and we cover the wide world of knockoff Dr Peppers. Ben is not a real doctor, but he is a real worm, he is an actual worm. Mike does his best to avenge Kif.…

It's 2024, so obviously Futurama is talking about the hottest new thing on the internet... NFTs? Yeah, I was as surprised as you were. Anyway. Somehow that leads to Bender going to Mexico in order to reconnect with his familia, the PlanEx crew plans a daring NFT art heist. But you can't steal an NFT because something something I don't know and honestly don't care. Meanwhile we're talking about house guests, Caesar salads, and the Monster with 21 Faces. Plus, a discussion about what are we even doing here with new Futurama thanks to some much belated fan email. Ben nudges the mouse, ever so slightly, to keep the computer awake. Mike learns about a kidnapping.…
