This week's ep is all about America's favorite jam band, so we welcome back comedian/writer/Phish fan Mike Hanford from the band/podcast The Sloppy Boys! As Homer gets prescription pot after a crow attack, he becomes a very era-appropriate stoner, which leads to him meeting Phish and puppeting Mr. Burns' corpse. So feel free to grab your own Texas THC (where legal) as we giggle nervously with this week's podcast!

When I watched this on the first run I didn't know who Phish was. When Hans Moleman said he "Had to hear it from fish" I thought he meant talking fish because he was high. Now that I know he meant the band I'm not sure how I made that connection in the first place.

This episode is one of the first times in a long time I legit just played Bob in Henry’s recording without watching the episode immediately because I’ve seen it so many times I can quote it by heart and buy scene! As a man who helped build a dispensary in Michigan, it’s such a delight ❤️ However, I would like to recommend to Henry for his anxiety If he ever wants to try A gummy or other type of edible, that’s 1:1 Or even pure CBD I found many of my friends, find it a great care of for anxiety and insomnia 👍 Also, I took a bit of typing into Google, but I found a issue Of a 1969 marvel comic called “Homer the Happy Ghost” Perhaps a reference to what Burns refers to Homer as

I work at a pot shop in Washington state. We're the furthest shop east of Seattle before you cross the mountains. This means most people heading to the biggest concert venue in central WA (The Gorge), stop at our store on the way. One week there is the annual Dave Matthews concert. This has me explaining the difference between THC and CBD to middle aged gen xers who work for Microsoft. The next week is the Phish concert. We always stock up on febreze for that one. There also a lot of cross over in the venn diagram for those two. And yes, The Dave Matthews Band doesn't rock.

Neglige reminds me of Nick Lachey, which reminds me that that balloon headed freak also ties into Ohio and pot voting! A bill was voted on in Ohio to legalize pot, but unfortunately that bill was sponsored by rich ass holes who wanted to monopolize it like 98 Degrees own Nick Lachey! So even pot smokers voted against it. Still waiting on a new, better bill. It might pass next time.

Im busting out my own wizard and skull for this one!

So I am a person that crows hate. No I haven’t harmed a crow or done anything to one (well I do sometimes tell them to shut up) but there is one crow who nests by my building and it hates me. Every nesting season I have to avoid that block it lives on because it will swoop and physically strike me. Other crows will swoop me, but that is the only one that actually hits me.

My experiences with cannabis are similar to Henry's, I basically turn into an immobile anxiety-wracked lump. Essentially, I Have Dry Mouth and I Must Scream. Which is a shame since everyone else seems to be having a grand ol' time!

The red stuff joke was funnier coming from a doctor imo

I have been waiting for this one forever! Such a later (well not anymore) season classic. The line "They call them fingers, but I've never seen them fing... oh! There they go." has been in my regular rotation for 15 years haha. I might jump back in with a comment or two after I listen. Thanks guys.

The story about the vape shop selling weed reminds me of how this month here in Portland someone decided to open up a store called the Shroom House and start selling psychedelic mushrooms. A couple of years ago Oregon voters approved a ballot measure allowing for the use of psilocybin in a therapeutic but not retail setting and so the store did end up getting raided by the police.

In my limited, high school, experience, there wasn't much a Phish fan would have had in common with a Juggalo. I was not apart of either fandom, but I was friends with some self-professed Juggaloes and all of them were straight edge. They turned their noses up at weed and booze and just wanted to be left to their Faygo and clown rhymes. I will add that every one of them would abandon that lifestyle post high school and would take up both drinking and weed and possibly other vices not associated with the straight edge lifestyle. I have no idea if this approach was common among the fandom or not at the time time (early 2000s), but that was my limited experience. The few Phish fans I knew though definitely fit the stereotype along with the Dead Heads. Weed consumption in the northeast US is a bit weird. I live in the very liberal, but somewhat buttoned-down, Massachusetts and our republican governor had to be dragged kicking and screaming to finally allow legal weed after votes approved it. Just north of us in "Live Free or Die" New Hampshire, weed still isn't legal. For decades, Mass shoppers have been going to NH to make purchases not subject to sales tax and now the NH folks are coming to MA to buy legal weed. The border of both states is just dotted with malls, strips, and now dispensaries. It's the same deal with legalized gambling too as that's been available in NH for awhile, but MA is taking its sweet ass time to implement it here. The states are like two vampires sucking the blood out of each other.

I'm not a Phish-head by any means but I remember seeing them on the cover of Entertainment Weekly in 2000. Seems like that's when they peaked, but I never followed the band, just knew some stoners who were fans

Magic mushrooms are actually still illegal here, but for some reason there are people openly selling them. That Shroom House in Portland that got raided recently (mentioned earlier in the comments here) has another location here in Vancouver that's still operating. The police have admitted they're aware of this and that they're more concerned about cracking down on opioids, so these shroom vendors are going untouched.

This is the first time I've watched this episode since I've actually BEEN HIGH (yay for Canada having legal weed for 4 years now), and despite the fact that it does fall into that trope of weed discussion/use being used as an excuse to talk about any kind of drug use and its visual representation looking like Homer was on LSD, I still think it's a really good episode! The plot is very all over the place, but some of the lines are just so good I don't even care, and as Bob was quick to say, the third act makes it worthwhile. -- Also, I cannot think of anywhere else, media or otherwise, where I've encountered Phish. I'm sure it's possible, but this episode is really the only that comes to mind on the rare occasion they come up - though usually, I only ever think about them when I watch this episode or it's referenced somewhere.

Living in the UK, I remember the first time I saw this episode was on Channel 4 at around 10.30 at night. Before it started, I was puzzled because the usual broadcast time is at 6pm but when the story got going, I figured it was moved because of the subject matter. Channel 4 usually censor The Simpsons pretty heavily, so it's a small wonder we got it at all. Nowadays? It's sitting right there on Disney Plus. What a crazy world. 😁 Thanks again for all the great podcasts.

very pleased about Bob's strident crow defense!! crows are beautiful lovely creatures and if you feed them and are kind to them you'll get little bird friends that follow you around the neighborhood

I will not tolerate any more Shemp slander! The '40s Shemp shorts are a vast improvement over most of the '40s Curly, where it's so obvious the man is tired and in physical pain from various ailments. (Nothing beats the early '30s Curly of course.) It's similar to the war years of Famous Studios Popeye being superior to the last few years of Fleischer Popeye... Different energy and pretty great, but went downhill fast that everyone forgets...
