TV Makes Sense - Episode 06 - The Simpsons - Lisa the Vegetarian

Description

<p>You don&apos;t make friends with salad, but you can if you incessantly quote &quot;The Simpsons&quot;. Well, at least the only kinds of friends worth keeping.<br/><br/>Matt, Gus, and Sam are back and talking another great episode of one of TV&apos;s best shows ever. How does one pick an episode when there&apos;s over 700 to choose from? Well, ignore anything from the last 20 years and pick an early episode: in our case, &quot;Lisa the Vegetarian&quot;.<br/><br/>While it may be an odd choice since it&apos;s rarely considered to be among the series&apos; top episodes, but it certainly was one of the most influential. Considering The Simpsons has to constantly shift its own backstory to keep the characters ages&apos; in line with modern times, Lisa still remains a vegetarian almost thirty years later. But not only that, this episode is packed with quotable lines and sight gags, as well as classic bits like an Itchy and Scratchy and a Troy McClure educational video. <br/><br/>We take the opportunity to discuss our own flings with vegetarianism; with Sam herself being inspired to give up meat for several years after watching this episode. Gus also talks about eating lentil soups when he gave it a try, and if you feel like trying Paul McCartney&apos;s ripping lentil soup, we&apos;ve done the work to reverse the audio from &quot;Maybe I&apos;m Amazed&quot; so you can hear it for yourself. Matt also gets the chance to deep dive into way to much knowledge on the earlier seasons of the Simpsons: the kind of skill only useful when making podcasts. <br/><br/>So settle in: grab a plate of tripe, a bowl of gazpacho, and make sure to remember to BYOBB. Even if we have a brief technical issue with Gus&apos; mic towards the end, it&apos;s still good, it&apos;s still good! <br/><br/>Note: this episode is fun for ages 1 to 7 1/2.<br/><br/>E-mail us!
