We took in our fifth and final Broadway show of the trip: Beetlejuice! We entered the online lottery and got seventh row seats for $50 each, I suggest anyone else give that a try when visiting

Last night in New York City and back to touristy fun. We started off with the Museum of the Moving Image, with a stirring Jim Henson collaboration of incredible history:

In "Bart of Darkness," Bart becomes a sinister-looking kid and witnesses a possible uxoricide committed by Ned Flanders! Our guest: Cody Ziglar @yayforzig.bsky.social. talkingsimpsons.libsyn.com/talking-simp...

Our history for The Simpsons’ sixth season starts now on @talksimpsonspod.bsky.social, as we welcome back @yayforzig.bsky.social for "Bart of Darkness!" We reflect on our own weird summers (with or without broken bones), so listen here: talkingsimpsons.libsyn.com/talking-simp...

Our monthly community discussion catches up on travel, surgery, and Simpsons in Fortnite in a packed episode! Join the @talksimpsonspod.bsky.social Patreon to hear us early: www.patreon.com/posts/144393...

Everyone should check out the recent US localization of Tokyo Godfathers—a great dub cast, including Shakina as Hana. As well, the new English subs on that same GKids Blu-ray are great (currently the Tubi version is still a fantastic film but some queer translation choices are unfortunately dated)

December schedule: What a Cartoon! - Tom Goes to the Mayor Talking Futurama - "Ghost in the Machines" TalKing of the Hill - "Rodeo Days" BELATED EPISODE: WAC Movie - Christmas at Pee-Wee's Playhouse WAC Movie - My Neighbor Totoro Full details & Simpsons schedule: www.patreon.com/posts/143870...

the first Danganronpa is basically free

Had a rare offer to watch the Macy’s Parade in-person and from the stands yesterday, so we woke up at 6am to do it. It was plenty chilly and I don’t think I’ll ever do it again, but it was pretty exciting to finally see the Spider-Man balloon float by just like when I first watched it on TV as a kid

Our second Weds show was Messy White Gays, a very funny new play written by Drew Droege—who’s also part of the five man cast. Also stars Aaron Jackson from Dicks: The Musical! It’s a brutal satire of white millennial homosexuals full of great oneliners that sting with familiarity. Big thumbs ups

Pregamed Thanksgiving yesterday with double Broadway shows: First we saw Waiting for Godot starring Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter. Might sound like a gimmick on the surface, but it’s a great showcase for both actors (as well as Brandon J. Dirden and Michael Patrick Thornton). Worth it

this handsome volume is just begging to be purchased... will you answer the call?

More NYC pics: Finally went to The Stonewall Inn. So much history there, and we even got to chat with an 86 year old Stonewall veteran who told us all about the displays on the walls

Got to grab lunch today with the super nice/funny @mikedrucker.bsky.social. It had been too long, last time I saw him in person was PAX 2019!

Catching up on my NYC travels, been too busy to post. A very nice friend gifted me (and a couple local pals) tickets to see a taping of the Tonight Show. Outside of the waiting area, we weren’t allowed to have our phones on, so you’ll have to look for me in the audience of tomorrow night’s airing

Due to travel, multiple, near-fatal cases of vacation poisoning, and various broken bones (or maybe just the one), we regretfully have to push November's WAC Movie—about Christmas at Pee-Wee's Playhouse—into mid-December (Patreon: Dec 12, Free preview: Dec 19) Thank you for understanding!

More from Manhattan Day 2: Went to Museum of Broadway and had lots of fun. Certainly full of gimmicks for social media, but also a lot of cool history and displays for the many decades of shows. My biggest fanboy moment was seeing a Jean Valjean costume and his candlesticks from Les Mis

Broadway show one is done, big thumbs up for Death Becomes Her. Even with Michelle Williams out for our show, it ruled. Megan Hilty and Jennifer Simard were great in the leads

Was doing podcasts to ostensibly promote games journalism, until eventually everyone who owned video game media stopped wanting to pay people to write reviews or record podcast. Fortunately I was able to turn to the audience who simply enjoyed podcasts

Staying in Manhattan means a stop at my favorite curry chain restaurant from Japan

In "Old Glory," Peggy ghostwrites a school essay for Bobby and feels betrayed by the lack of credit. Meanwhile, Bill saves an American flag from getting disposed. Hear the discussion on our Patreon-exclusive TalKing of the Hill miniseries! www.patreon.com/posts/talkin...

"Treehouse of Horror XV" features "The Ned Zone," "Four Beheadings and a Funeral," and "In the Belly of the Boss"! @merrittk.com joins us to discuss. talkingsimpsons.libsyn.com/talking-simp...

A sad occasion to share this, but we wanted to give everyone a chance to hear our 2018 interview with the late Dan McGrath where we chatted about his many achievements in comedy writing

every year someone does a study that’s like “we gave 100 homeless ppl money and their lives improved” and every year the government kills that guy

A packed holiday vacation started today. I feel caught between the moon and some kind of city. Doing the touristy pizza things first ahead of lots of Broadway and some family gatherings. And the sign makes sure to let you know it’s the pizza place from the start of Spider-Man 2

Billionaire Awards

new Ace Attorney merch I designed: The Almost Christmas sweater (new version!), Almost Christmas ornament, and Ema shirt

This show is key to so much comedy history, including The Simpsons. We explored the dense history of this cult show on @talksimpsonspod.bsky.social a few years ago—check it out to learn all about it: sites.libsyn.com/73326/check-...

new Hades stuff by me! Including a black and purple version of the Nyx tee www.fangamer.com/collections/...

Nearly full house for the screening I went to tonight. Over 100 people to share in the technical achievement/confusion together!

This is a very good podcast with a great guest

We’re celebrating Halloween in November with @merrittk.com returning to @talksimpsonspod.bsky.social! Out for all listeners, we begin season 16 with “Treehouse of Horror XV”: talkingsimpsons.libsyn.com/talking-simp...

time to be obsessed with "no talk me angy" Godzilla

It’s double weird in the new Simpsons ep last night they killed off Mrs. Glick. Around since season 2 (same debut ep as Comic Book Guy), Glick *already* was killed off in the 2011 episode “Replaceable You.” ADDITIONALLY, they made her the church organist, confusing her with a different character

This was a great time discussing a totally forgotten/ridiculously macho manga that didn't last five months in Shonen Jump. Thanks for the invitation!

this one really has Peggy at her best/worst

Glad this show is continuing, I really enjoyed season two. Hopefully Peacock’s marketing team ups the promotional budget next time cuz they clearly didn’t give Geoff Keighley whatever payola is necessary to get a “Best Adaptation” nomination at the joke awards. Better luck next time!
