This week, we're covering the rare Halloween episode of Futurama—just in time for five days after Halloween! (In the year, 2000 anyway) Yes, it's the premiere of broadcast season three, which spins a wild tale of were-car horror almost as terrifying as how Fox would treat Futurama over the next few years. Listen in and learn how to properly bury your robots, the distinct noise of the golden marmoset, and the shocking origins of David Duchovny. Now sit back and get ready for some mumbo, and perhaps some jumbo!

On a binge of the Futurama podcasts...I often tell people ...I've had too much caffine or too little caffine, I forget how it works with me... I had forgotten where I got it from. I was sure it was Futurama, but wasn't sure what episode though. I always found that line funny on this episode.

I remember going to the Ripley’s Believe it or Not “Odditorium” at Surfer’s Paradise in Australia, and they have (had?) a Zoltar machine. It wasn’t the exact design from the movie, as that one was never mass-produced (though homemade replicas exist) but it still gave the same basic “fortune teller” idea. I bring it up because, even as a preteen, I was so scared it could actually grant magical wishes as it did in the film, so I avoided it as much as possible. Bit of explanation for Mac OS names: Starting with 10.9 “Mavericks” they’re named after California locations since it’s their home state. So you have “Sierra, “El Capitan”, and, yes, “Catalina”.

The TRS-80 was itself in reality often referred to as the "Trash-80" due to its notorious lack of quality, which was perhaps heavily implied by Bob's comments, but not technically or explicitly pointed out, and that just will not stand in a Keeler episode, so here ya go.

Another fun fact about Pedestrian, the "violet game about running over people," it actually managed to avoid litigation in a pretty interesting way, changing its title. It was retitled to be Death Race 2000 and claimed to be a movie tie-in, and suddenly all the controversy about it was gone. Because as you guys have talked about before, doing something questionable is bad, but doing something questionable that a famous movie already did is fine.

Surprised you didn't mention the "Commodore LXIV" joke on the painting with the motion-tracking eyes.

The really deep nerd joke of the binary number being "correct" when read backwards is that there's two orders for reading bytes in memory or data: big-endian, and little-endian. A way to think of this is like left-to-right (Big endian) or right-to-left (little endian). If reading left-to-right was gibberish, and Bender read it correctly when reversed in the mirror (right-to-left), then Bender's CPU is little endian. This is entirely consistent with the X-Ray of Bender's head showing a 6502 CPU, which is little-endian.

I'm personally offended* when my favorite quote in an episode isn't a clip. First it was "Tell them I hate them" and this time it was the Knight Rider joke. *I'm exaggerating of course

Another fun episode but what is the Macbeth podcast curse they refer to?

I remember Titus being a lot better than Henry & Bob are giving it credit for but its ads and promotion were terrible. Probably even odds that its just nostalgia and not having taste as a child anyways. Then again so much of late 90s - pre 9/11 TV is unwatchable now I also remember the last aired episode (which was supposed to be earlier, since it doesn't make sense after the actual last episode where he has a mental breakdown after his mom commits suicide because he is worried he is going down that mental illness path ) was a very special episode with a molestation last-act twist. So that probably hasn't aged well...
