No Money Down Podcast

On this week's episode, Rob and Andy talk about new fatherhood, neighbourly disputes, and after a while talk a little about the SImpsons. But seriously, this is another example of a very solid Season 10 episode, which honestly just keeps suprising us! A great emotional story between Bart and Marge with some great humour thrown in too. What's not to love!!

Homer becomes obsessed with Thomas Edison and tries to become an inventor. Predictably his inventions are awful and no one in their right mind would buy them... or accept them as gifts. [Synopsis at 9:47]

We're back to regular scheduled programming this week and it's time to kick-start Season 10! What an episode this is. A fantastic A and B plot with plenty of iconic moments and character development. Remember to save that retirement grease, and strap in for some Season 10 fun. Enjoy!!

Stay up late, pur yourself an eggcup of whiskey and join Rob and Andy for trivia on THOH9. 1. Hell Toupe - Homer gets possessed by Snake's transplanted hair 2. Terror of Tiny Toon - Bart and Lisa get sucked into an Itchy and Scratchy cartoon. 3. Starship Poopers - It is revealed that Kang is Maggie's father and the family turns to Jerry SPringer to solve their problems. [Synopsis at 9:15]

On this week's episode, Rob talks about his dreams and a good alternative to pasta, and Andy outsources his podcast responsibilities to ChatGPT. But essentially, Marge and Homer's love life is lacking in spice, so they turn to sexy new alternatives to bring the spark back. The episode gets a B from us, and is a nice one to wrap up Season 9 with. Enjoy guys!

Come for the trivia on the heartwarming story of Homer breaking Lisa into a museum just to see the ISIS exhibit (I guess she just thinks they're neat). Stay for the initial banter about Andy's flesh eating virus and Chat GPT (the AI program that will soon be our master). [Synopsis at 13:35]

We come to you this week from....THE POOL!! Rob and Andy record for S09E23 - King of the Hill from Rob's pool in one of our more brilliant ideas! Anyway, this week's episode sees Homer overcome the shame of his deteriorating health by getting fit, on the (power) sauce, and climbing the "Murderhorn". A wonderful example of a Season 9 episode, and we loved recording for this one. Enjoy guys!

Merry Xmas and welcome to a special pub trivia edition where the questions are general knowledge questions (but Simpsons knowledge will give you a good hint). But first the guys air their Festivus grievances incl Mariah Carey, Die Hard and don't-make-me-tap-the-sign bureaucrats. [Trivia at 19:20]

We're back to regular scheduled programming this fortnight with season 9 episode 22- Trash of the Titans! Rob and Andy were a bit divided on their scoring for this episode, but we agreed that there were some brilliantly quotable lines, and a fantastic guest appearance from Steve Martin as Ray Patterson. Tune in next WEEK for our annual general simpsons pub trivia and Merry Christmas to all!!

In this special Rob and Andy break the mold to bring you a season 33 double header masterpiece! Not a normal Simpsons episode. Flanders stumbles into a Cohen brothers type story of found money, open marriages and murders. Lots of murders. [Synopsis at 19:15]

In this week's episode, Lisa is asked to anchor the new "Kidz Newz" program but is quickly outshined by Bart. In the B-plot, Homer gets himself a helper monkey named Mojo, with hilarious consequences. Tune in next week for a non-sequential episode, Season 33 Episode 6 - A Serious Flanders (Parts I & II). Enjoy!!

Homer gets busted for tax fraud and is used by the FBI to try and get evidence of Mr Burns' theft of a 1 Trillion Dollar bill. He eventually helps Burns escape with the money to Cuba, hilarity ensues. The guys talk tax scams and air their grievances. [Synopsis at 10:00]

In a stunning return to form, this fortnight we have Simpson Tide! Homer joins the naval reserve in an effort to give back to a country he has taken so much from, but as we can all imagine, ends up doing much more harm than good. A wonderful episode that both Rob and Andy gave a B+, but is far more divisive through the writer-inerers. Anyway, enjoy!!

The episode that Andy rates as the WORST episode we've covered! Bart is set up on a playdate with Ralph and discovers that he can use Ralph to get the police master key. Mild laughs ensue. The guys talk NZ accents, correct vegemite doses and of course butter. [Synopsis at 11:35]

In this week's episode, Lisa confronts her inevitable cognitive decline on account of the Simpson-gene, and in the B-plot, Jasper freezes himself in the Kwik-E-Mart freezer to see a world into the future. A wonderful season 9 episode which was helped immensely with a really solid B-plot. Enjoy!!

"Stealing, stealing, stealing a car for Moe. Na na na na na na na na INSURANCE FRAUD TODAY!" Moe's attempt to hold down a girlfriend involve roping homer into committing an elaborate insurance fraud and him going to jail. Rob tells a story involving insurance fraud and condoms. [Synopsis at 10:50]

On this week's episode, we see Krusty's decline from hilarity into obscurity, and his eventual triumphant return into a Bill Hicks type character. This is also the Canyonero episode, which is arguably the best Simpsons song of all time (in Andy's very isolated opinion). Anyway, enjoy!!

A bus ride to the model UN club leads to the kids being marooned on an island - lord of the flies ensues. Meanwhile Homer starts up an internet business and is "bought out" by Bill Gates. [Synopsis at 3:05]

On this week's episode, Homer joins the Movementarians religious cult and unwillingly drags the rest of the family into it as well. Marge (with the assistance of Lovejoy, Flanders, and to a lesser extend, Willie) help rescue the family and bring the citizens of Springfield back to Christianity. Such a great episode, but very polarising amongst the listeners. Nevertheless, we had a great time putting this one together, and hope you enjoy!!

Carnies built this country... the carnival part at least. Bart and Homer become carnies and are swindled out of their house only to win it back by a grift of their own. [Synopsis at 5:45]
