This week's episode delves deep into what defines Homer's rage, so we are joined by a luminary of Simpsons history, TheRealJims from the awesome YouTube channel of the same name! After Homer breaks his jaw following an angry day at the movies, he learns to listen and love his family. Somehow that leads him to a parody of The View followed by Marge trying to replace Homer's insanity. We're talkin' downtown on this week's podcast!

I've been waiting for the day that TheRealJims got onto one of these

I was shocked to discover this later episode I’ve never seen before was actually really funny

Oh ho ho, YES! I'm so glad TheRealJims finally guest-starred on one of these, I've long been wanting him on it. It's refreshing to have someone that isn't just immediately snarky and dismissive towards modern Simpsons episodes. A much later Family Guy episode basically did this entire opening cinema scene, right down to Tom Hanks being part of a trivia question. Peter and Homer are both impatient about something before the film, except with Peter he can't tell when the logos stop and the film begin. Soccer Mummy being both an adult grossout comedy and a kid's film didn't seem that weird to me, because (as someone who grew up watching them) there was this weird streak in the early 2000s of just having very mature "parental bonus" jokes in family films. You guys already talked about Shrek on another podcast, but another great example is the 2002 Scooby-Doo movie, the one James Gunn wrote: It was gonna be either PG-13 or R, but WB got cold feet and re-edited it to be more "family friendly". Despite that, it's still filled to the brim with sex and drug references, and they even had to digitally remove cleavage from some of the female characters. The general trend I've seen in recent trailers is when they cover an old song, but in a dramatic minor key with a female vocalist. According to TV Tropes that seems to have started with The Social Network's trailer having a choir version of Creep by Radiohead, and it's just kept going: Recently there was a trailer for a Resident Evil movie that did a version of "What's Up" by 4 Non Blondes, and many people (including me!) couldn't take it seriously because all they could think of was the "HEYAYAYAYA/Fabulous Secret Powers" He-Man meme. And as for parodies of this trend, the YouTube channel Auralnauts has a hilarious cover of You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) they made for a "Every Blockbuster Movie Trailer" parody video that's worth listening to.

One of the better/memorable episodes of S13

I have one comment, you guys claim that Bart doing the Jackass stunt himself is objectionable since he would definitely make Milhouse do it for him. Being a bit younger than you guys and therefore living through the "kids imitating Jackass" phase, there is no way Bart would make someone else do the stunt. The whole thing was to do the stunts yourself, making someone else do them would be considered wussing out.

This one isn't a particularly fun episode for me to revisit as not long after it aired a good friend of mine was a victim of a random act of violence outside a record store that left his jaw broken. He had to get wired-up like Homer and carried around a notepad for writing communications. It was just sad all around and made more so because he was a vocalist in a band and obviously couldn't sing with his jaw wired shut. The punks who jumped him too even broke the CD he had just purchased to add further insult to injury. He's fine now, or I think he is since he moved to the complete opposite side of the country so I rarely hear from him, but yeah, I always think of that incident when I watch this episode.

I’m not gonna lie, I laughed like an 8 year old when I heard that boner line 😹

This was a strangely memorable episode for me back in the days when I recorded new episodes of this era on audio cassette tape, so it was like listening to radio. As a 14 year old when it first aired, I was struck a nerve and counted that I laughed a whopping 75 times during the episode. I was laughing so much it was like I was the medical description of “high as a kite”. Some highlight crazy laughs I had were at the Soccer Mummy boner joke, hearing who I thought was Selma during the pride parade, the Popeye ending with Marge as Olive Oil, and the oddly inappropriate greeting to Duffman of “Newsweek said you died of liver failure!”, which I read as a callback to his first appearance in season 9 (Hey it’s Duffman! The guy in a costume that creates awareness of Duff). I still have the tape, I just need to know how to transfer it to digital.

The podcast that gets me through the workday meets the YouTube channel that I watch to wind-down AFTER said workday? What a dream collaboration! As for the episode itself, while the braces experiences does seem quite different from having your jaws wired shut (something I have not experienced and hope to never experience), when this episode aired originally, I was a young teen whose baby teeth were not falling out, which my orthodontist diagnosed as "face too small" (but in orthodontist speak). He told me that I had "the same jaw condition as Jay Leno," which spooked young me in a similar way that the computer aging thing spooked Lisa in "Last Exit to Springfield." He might as well have told me a tooth was going to bust through my skull. I was then given a choice between jaw surgery and a second round of braces with an expander, and I went with the latter because I didn't want to miss a dance rehearsal due to surgery (priorities!) And let me tell you—that expander coupled with a fuck-ton of rubber bands not only made for the most cringey school photos ever, but they really really hurt and made it hard to talk and impossible to eat solid foods. I totally survived on nothing but fast-food milkshakes for months, because they were the only way I could get enough calories without having to chew. So basically, when Homer was ready to die by suicide after learning what awaited him, I just thought he was being a huge baby, but I also felt just a little bit "seen" when one of my favorite characters couldn't chew either. Also, I always assumed the brunch = gay connection was related to drag brunches. But maybe that wasn't as much a thing in 2002?

TheRealJims is a perfect guest for this podcast

Sean Riley

great episode dudes, with regards to modern movie trailer parody discussion, id think that 'spoooooky version of old rock song' would be done in an updated 2022 joke. they even did it for the recent season of stranger things with 'seperate ways' by journey

You know, I'm not entirely proud of how funny my younger self thought “I'm talkin' DOWNTOWN!” was. On the other hand, I still enjoy inserting “Shenanigoats” into sentences whenever possible.

Andrew Mowbray

It was really awesome you guys got TheRealJims on the show! I fell in love with both of y'all's content at the same time, so this was a real meeting of The Simposons minds for me!

mavrick

great guest!

As someone who's been to many pride parades, "Get Ready For This" is such an odd choice for Springfield's parade. Most people associate that song with halftime at sporting events, not LGBT people. In real life a disco song would be playing, most likely something from Donna Summer, Cher, or Gloria Gaynor.

As a longtime Jims subscriber, so glad to hear him on the show. Hope he returns in due time
