Matt Bixler! Hello!

I'm currently listening to this episode at my job inventorying a local bar, and by coincidence I walked by a TV currently showing monster jam. Apparently the Monster Energy Drink truck is involved in some sort of race against the Great Clips truck, which is a real thing that seems to exist.

One of the most memorable episodes of The Simpsons. I think I was the perfect demographic for this one as a little boy who loved Bart and knew of monster trucks and wrestling. The scenes with Homer and Bart shine a light on how the writing staff was figuring out how to be a little sentimental without losing the humor. I think that's the element of The Simpsons that really elevated it beyond the early episodes into the golden years, or whatever we want to call them. And the shocking amount of violence in Homer's fall definitely left an impression on my developing mind. I did like the question that arose during the conversation about what was everyone's first encounter with the word "ass" in pop culture. I definitely heard it in moves before seeing it on TV ("We came. We saw. We kicked it's ass!"), but The Simpsons could very well have been the first time I heard the word on television. I'm fairly sure it was the first time I heard it in something I felt was explicitly made for me, which is how I felt about basically every cartoon when I was a kid. I can remember a similar thrill to hearing it on The Simpsons when Buzz says it in Home Alone, which I would have heard not long after seeing this episode for the first time. I can also remember some of my aunts suggesting my mom not let my sister and I see Home Alone because of that specific scene, which is amusing to me because that same aunt had a neighbor who broker her arm imitating Kevin's ride down the stairs on his toboggan, only she used a laundry basket. Kevin was truly the original Jack Ass.

Does anyone else skip the first 20 minutes after the guest is introduced?

This is indeed a "hook" episode of the series, maybe the most so, the one that caught a lot of us as young'uns and kept us hooked. It's a powerful visually directed episode that skewers pathos for that horrific hilarious ending. Seeing this is definitely one of my earliest Simpsons memories, and besides Homer's fall, Otto's commentary at the gorge also stuck with me. I mean, that dead body observation... WTAF, Otto?

Probably verboten but another big gorge scene is in the Family Guy crossover, Peter and Homer fist fight each other as the vehicle they are in rolls down the gorge ramp and jumps(it doesn't make it). And I don't remember exactly but I think that vehicle is Kang's UFO which they crashed in the course of their fight.

Great episode! There’s a teeny tiny moment in this episode that’s always stuck out to me, though. I thought that this schoolyard rumor was bigger than it actually it is, but I guess not. When the episode comes back from break and Bart is saying “pull, pull, you dogs”, there’s a soft beep in the audio track between ‘you’ and ‘dogs’. There was a rumor that someone had ~heard from a friend who’s dad worked on the show~ that the original take featured Bart saying “pull, pull you FUCKING dogs” but it was hastily and sloppily cut out last minute, hence the tiny little beep in the audio track. Gotta love the playground rumor mill!
