Episode 12
It's a flashback episode! In "The Way We Was," Homer and Marge share with their children the story of how they met and fell in love with each other during high school.
In this episode, we discuss:
- The character Artie Ziff (Jon Lovitz), and how the character is based on a man Silverman went to high school with named Mark Eisenberg.
- Rainier Wolfcastle, Mendoza!, and the real-life McBain film starring Christopher Walken that was a financial and box-office flop
- Was Friend's character Monica Gellar's dad, played by Elliot Gould, considered a sexpot in the 1970s? The girl who rejects Barney Gumble seems to think so.
A deep-dive research podcast with host Perrie Kap examines the most fantastic TV show of our time: The Simpsons.
