Wassupp?!?! For this week's ep that promised a visit to Toronto in its ads, we welcome back Will Sloan, the Torontonian cohost of podcasts The Important Cinema Club and Michael And Us! As we get a guided tour of how Canadians in 2002 reacted to this episode, we watch Bart land a girlfriend he didn't expect, take a look at Rainier Wolfcastle's home life, and hear some dated celebrity jokes. So grab your curling broom for this week's podcast!

I did not expect to see this episode within weeks of an actual trip to Toronto but that’s what happened

Boyd Adkins IV

You both are correct about the Sea Captain/Captain Macalister. He has not had his own episode yet, however in season 31 he does get an extended sequence at the beginning of episode 12 where he and his wife go on a treasure adventure. At the moment that's as close as we get.

The pacing in season 14 in general disappoints me for the most part each act feels like it could be an entire episode on its on. The Canada stuff feels so half-baked and Bart having multiple love interest would make sense if he was teen.

Interesting to hear the gatekeeping used to identify "foreigners" exists elsewhere. Growing up in the Bay Area and around San Francisco, many "natives" here get bent out of shape when they hear "San Fran" or "Frisco". To which I, as a native, say: who the hell cares? And as a lifetime fan of the Warriors, I remember a time (80s, 90s, 00s) when we used to be a joke to the entire NBA; when reaching the playoffs was an unfathomable accomplishment. Suffice it to say, this past decade has been a miracle. Thank goodness for Steph Curry. And Canadian basketball is very strong. Case in point, Andrew Wiggins, key contributer to the Warriors championship this year, hails from Toronto.

There was a later version of the "Wassup" commercial made in 2008, from the same director/star (Charles Stone III), where all the same characters are dealing with the problems of that era (unemployment, no money for healthcare, the housing market's collapse and subsequent financial crisis, deployment in Iraq, etc.) and then it turns into a pro-Obama piece, where change is "what's up". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-B8_BjVGBQ

The best advertisement I’ve ever seen for Crystal Skull vodka is that episode of Red Letter Media where Mike Stoklasa gets absolutely ripped by combining that with exto cooler.

A few years ago I was in Toronto on a work trip, and it also happened to be during Pride. If you've never been, Toronto Pride is very, very fun, and a bunch of my friends were on the trip too. One morning at like 6 am after a very fun night of Pride partying, we were walking from our hotel over to the venue where we were filming, and in all my ADHD-infused fury, I was going on about how much fun Toronto was, how much I loved Toronto: Toronto this, Toronto that, and definitely pronouncing it Tor-on-tow the whole time. All of a sudden, the guy walking in front of us turned around and yelled at me: "Tor-on-tow? Tor-on-tow? It's Tor-ON-OH, not Tor-on-TOW!" And then followed that with "Do you want to die? Do you want to die in Tor-ON-OH, bitch?" I probably should have been kind of afraid, but it was just so funny, and also, this being Canada, I was pretty sure this person didn't have a gun or anything (though I guess they could have stabbed me or something). I do at least try to omit the "T" now, and "Do you want to die in Tor-on-oh, bitch?" has become a regular greeting between those friends and me.

Just say Ter-Ran-Ah and you're good. Also Edge and Christian are from Orangeville, Ontario. In WWE, a US wrestler can be from the tiniest town(battle creek MI, West Newberry MA), but a non US wrestler had to be billed from the closest city an ignorant American might have heard of. Fire fighters make bank here too: https://www.therecord.com/news/waterloo-region/2018/07/03/new-wage-settlement-pushes-most-kitchener-firefighter-salaries-over-100k.html Oh and making your truck blow more exhaust then necessary is rolling coal.

My wife and I watching this episode a week ago were taken back by the thumbwrestling scene. Bart's right hand is holding Greta's left hand from the outside to thumbwrestle. It has amused us days.. I sure hope someone was fired for that blunder..

Frank Grimes

bart not getting the hint could also mean he's a 10 year old boy.

Considering he ended up pivoting to selling AI generated NFTs, I can't say I feel bad for the Garfield Eats guy.

I can't believe I am about to be this much of a pedant, but at the same time I feel a duty to be a huge geek about this: it's inaccurate to say that the CN Tower is useless as a building. While it is a dorky tourist attraction, the structure itself has a very practical use: its antenna, which is a very important part of Toronto broadcasting and communications history. More than 30 TV and radio stations are transmitted through that antenna. Because of its height and its proximity at the southernmost/lowest point in the city, it ensures that people across the city get clear access to a lot of radio and TV. During my 10+ years in Greektown, I could watch our major conventional stations – CBC, CTV, City and Global – with just my antenna and no cable package, clear as a bell. I was always appreciative of it but didn't realize just how great it was until I moved to another county in Southern Ontario near Lake Erie and can't get a single conventional station, even the CBC, through my antenna.

The helicopter crash with the Olympic torch at the start of the episode makes me think of the helicopter crash on Olympic Bridge in Seoul in 2001 (the CH-47 Chinook was bringing the torch sculpture to the top of the bridge and it crashed) I hope that isn't the inspiration for this joke, but the crash happened in May of 2001, so maybe?

In the season 33 episode The Wayz We Were, Milhouse wears a soccer jersey that says The House on the back

In case it hasn't already been said, I don't know if the sea captain has a dedicated episode but he has a level based around him in the video game, and the end of the level ends with a cutscene with him saying Sea captain: I almost never have this much important in the series Bart and lisa: huh? Sea captain: The series of events that make up our lives

Deadlockoriginalfilms

The scene where Lisa takes the ball away from Maggie to prove that someone only wants something that they can't have , feels very similar to the one where Lisa and bart are fighting over the glue in Bart versus thanksgiving. I do at least appreciate that there's a Twist on the joke though

It's wonderful to hear Will on the show again with his wry, understated humor and broad knowledge. (He's one of the only reasons I miss Twitter.) This is such a lame episode in every respect. I'll add that even as a middle schooler who had a decent familiarity with Toronto (not a Canadian, lifelong resident of the American Niagara Falls, so we lived 90 minutes away from there) that this generic and bland interpretation only expedited no longer needing to see new episodes every week.

Count me as another Canadian who was disappointed by this episode when it was new. From what I remember, the next episode that visits Canada isn't much better. It's interesting to hear Will talk about the decline of Toronto as a filming location, because there's been a major uptick in movies filmed in my part of the country during the same time frame, mostly horror stuff like those direct-to-DVD Child's Play sequels, and many Hallmark Channel original movies.

Jay in Madison

Ok so I haven't been to T'ranna since 2004, but do (cringey) people still say T Dot or T.O.? While this absolute vacantness of a Simpsons episode well deserves all the scorn and then some, I *still* quote "LAUGHING TIME IS OVER" regularly.

While we haven't seen as many movies shooting here in Toronto recently, a lot of great Television gets filmed here! What We Do in the Shadows, The Boys, both of the current live-action Star Trek shows, Lock and Key, the list goes on!
