Yay Kat Bailey. I love this episode and I absolutely love the final song. As a kid in music class I used to sing it any time we had to sing this land is your land. I still sing it to myself all the time. It became super relevant during the inauguration when I got to introduce someone to both the original version, with woody Guthrie’s OG lyrics (the conversation started because the pedantic leftist and folk music fan in me couldn’t stand them using the song when I knew they wouldn’t sing the socialist verse. For those who don’t know the original version of this land is your land has a verse that’s a pretty unsubtle endorsement of socialism and communism) but I’m as much a Simpsons fan as I am a leftist and woodie Guthrie fan, so I took the opportunity to share both the original version, and my delightful childhood love of “this log is your log”. I would have rather they sang this log is your log at the inauguration if I’m being totally honest, I would respect the hell out of that.

And hard agree with kat on the history channel

One thing that really surprised me about this episode, I thought I remembered the level 5 vegan guy being a sell out and betraying Lisa and his beliefs to make some money. I was pleasantly surprised that no, he was just a little bit self centered and kind of a doofus but he was sincere in his environmentalism.

I also like Banjo Tooie, although less than the first game, but Tooie is still good. I personally always call Tooie "The Proto-DK64." Both games try to push their respective series to be as big a game as they can be, both games have bigger worlds although they use the larger worlds not well (a lot of empty space and bigger just to be bigger), both games put a bigger focus on shooting in series that I feel most fans wouldn't want as much if it in, and both games have a larger focus on mini-games. Still Tooie is WAY better than DK64, probably because they already had it in mind when finish up the first game and still stayed in their comfort zone whereas DK64 tried to do way too much in way not much time and just became a mess.

Did people really think Banjo Kazooie was just a game for little kids? I mean I last played it in jr high when it dropped, but I remember it being just as fun and immersive as mario 64.... oh yeah and go vegan ^_^

Even though it was just a very short scene, the part with the barber being senile reminded me of the King of the Hill episode Hank's Bad Hair Day, which I just looked up and it aired in April of 2000. Even though Hank's barber going crazy is a longer plot line and is actually the impetus for the rest of the plot, it's weird that both shows had an "old barber goes crazy" joke within months of each other. I guess the Gen X writers for these episodes were pulling from their own memories of their childhood barbers, who were likely their grandparents' age, who were slowly drifting into senility, and likely didn't fully notice it until they got that one really bad hair cut, like Hank did.

Console bundles were definitely a thing in the 90s that still persist today. The first I can recall seeing were for the Nintendo 64 and I think it's partly due to that generation of consoles being sold as the bare minimum: console, one controller, AV hookups, AC adapter. And when retailers see these missing things, and huge consumer demand, they see an opportunity for more sales only they rarely have the consumer in mind. It's one thing for Toys R Us to sell a bundle of the N64 with Mario and a controller, but then you have Circuit City forcing anyone who bought a PS2 off of them on launch day to also purchase a copy of Fantavision. I camped out for a PS2 outside of Best Buy with some friends and the line was large. Next door was Circuit City which had four people waiting because no one wanted Fantavision. GameStop is now the king of the console bundle and they seem to always pile on a bunch of crap no one wants to their console launch sales.

Even though it was kind of weird here with Marge ganging up with the family against Lisa, I do appreciate the moments when Marge can uncharacteristically laugh at something. My favorite moment is coming up in Dead Putting Society when she leaves the room to laugh at Ned's letter. Also, I am nominating the exchange with Bart and the barber as a candidate for next viral Simpsons meme.

The Bobby Shmurda good looks

I hate that I'm about to become a guy who corrects something said on a podcast, but the urge is too strong, I know something and I have to share it! The matrix music wasn't an Alf Clausen parody, it was the song played in the lobby shootout, Spybreak from Propellerheads. I figure that might be why they used it again, it couldn't have been cheap.

ShyRanger

Also forgot to say, hearing that Super Nintendo controversy from you guys, I do at least find it interesting that a console not being backwards compatible was a big deal even back then. Sure Bob's whole "they're foreign so we judge them" is probably true,, although I would argue that it was still not that long after the Video Game Crash, which one of the big issues was a surplus a systems to choose, so I bet that fueled the fire too. But still, yeah back then complaining about not being backwards compatible was still a little crazy, I think only Atari and some computers could do it and obviously their games aren't as advanced. Nowadays a system not being backwards compatible, that's definitely a call for "is this ripping us off" in some way.

Gayest Episode Ever

So there was a small controversy with this episode and season 11 of RuPaul's Drag Race, where contestant Brooke Lynn Hytes stole this joke about being a level-5 vegan and not eating anything that casts a shadow, and she did it in an improv challenge. She stole the joke, and she actually didn't even get the level number right — she said "level 4" and not "level 5," and that's not enough to say you made it your own thing, like Scott Pilgrim sorta did. Anyway, no one on the show clocked it and not that many viewers noticed, and that was when I realized I was part of a relatively small overlap of Simpsons fans who also watch Drag Race.

Kat Bailey is my favourite guest

Hey Bob, I believe I remember the closed captioned lyrics. From what I remember reading the captions: This log it use to be a tree Now it plagues society Crushing nice folks like you and me This was only for the last part of the song the other song remains untouched.

Sara

liberal cream puff Bob Mackie! lol you guys are hilarious! I love when Kat is the guest.

Genius at work moment here. Early in the episode it was established that the tree was a sequoia tree, but after Lisa is revealed to be still alive Jesse calls it a redwood. Are we to believe that it is some sort of magic tree or something?

DrKarate

Let's not forget the other thing billy corgan likes doing now, going on infowars and yelling about sjws! Yes, sorry for everyone who didn't know, but the years fame and drug use have smoothed his brain to being an Alex Jones loving psychopath

I'm assuming that 256 is a reference to the maximum number of values that could be represented in 8-bits. So that's kind of a joke, I guess.

A few random thoughts: -Lombard St would make an appearance five months later in the Futurama episode "Bendin' in the Wind". I guess Lombard must've been on the writers' minds for both shows. -"Kicked the bucket" is an extra funny line considering a bucket attracted the lightning that killed the tree. It was mean to shit on Lisa's politics, but the irony is hilarious IMO. -I noticed that Homer's "I was lost in your eyes" line is not in the "Every LGBT joke in the Simpsons" video. Fired, blunder, etc.

Watching this episode right now as a digital artist is kinda depressing with all the NFT crap happening right now :(

Woof! What an ugly episode! The contrast between Season 2 and 12 couldn't be more stark - it's not like the writers were incredibly woke in 90/91 but they were engaging with somewhat adult topics from a mature standpoint. This, not so much. Really been enjoying the rewatch paired with the episodes a decade later for this reason tho. Also - yay to Kat Bailey coming back, always a really fun guest to have on.
