Back to the Futurama

How does folk music get made? Is it 3D printed? You can 3D print anything these days, right? Anyways, Bender tries to 3D print some folk. I think that's the point of this episode. Ben makes a Wikipedia edit. Mike makes a Hamilton edit.

This one is a weird one as we see what it would be like if the PlanEx crew were all... uh... salmon and turtles and seals. You read that right. Ben has seen pornos that start this way. Mike changes his punctuation to 14 point.

Everybody put on your heisting caps, because we're going on a heist! The crew needs to steal 8 million dollars and a mysterious box from the robot mafia's casino. We promise this will be an exciting heist and not one of those BORING heists. Obviously, Ben and Mike are busy heisting, too, and they're going to heist the coolest thing to steal ever: ooze. Come with us ont his journey in Ooze Heist: H...

The crew's new uniforms are ruined! But Bender doesn't care; he just takes up an exciting new hobby of hunting and brutally murdering foxes. THIS WILL BE FINE. The crew attempts to thwart his new hobby, anyway. Meanwhile, we talk about, uh... strip clubs? And also we talk about how to design amazing uniforms for when you're not stripping. Ben makes a last minute alteration. Mike watches a movie.

The professor's parents come back. As you might expect, they are extremely old. Also, the professor hates them for some reason, so we'll all have to dig into that. We also say some jazz about podcast awards and Greg the Bunny. Do you remember that show? Seth Green, please tweet @backtofuturama and let's start a Greg the Bunny podcast. Billy Crystal may or may not be involved. We maybe drag J.K. Ro...

Robots are just a jumbled pile of programming that do whatever the heck their programming tells them to. That include Bender, the lovable rascal! But what if Bender wanted to get free will? That's what we explore in this episode that is definitely not talking about Good Will Hunting. That's a different thing. Ben starts an improv school. Mike goes into debt.

It's July! And that means it's time for our nations favorite holiday, waiting for three months and then going to Germany for a respectful Oktoberfest! Bender gets involved in a sausage competition! Fry gets involved in Neanderthal society! Ben gets involved in saying "penis" an awful lot. We were talking about sausages, it was bound to happen. Ben gives a German lesson. Mike is a dedicated member...

Let's face it, we would all love to get some cool robotic upgrades, whether it be a chest harpoon or an extendo-arm or even a Cylon-dong. But if you actually had the back-alley surgeon to do it, would you? Hermes does and he has to deal with the consequences. We, meanwhile, go on quite a thing about how everybody is trying to be Game of Thrones, including Futurama. And that of course goes into a w...

If a murderfly flaps its wings on the Moon, does a hurricane hit the Earth? No, it really just pummels Amy and Leela a lot. This sentence I just typed makes perfect sense. Also there are drugs involved. Don't do drugs. Or do. We're not your parents. Ben also gloats a lot about being Ben. Did you know he's Ben and he has done a lot of stuff in his life? He will tell you about it. He also has a not...

What happens when your mom starts dating your ex? Also, it wasn't your ex, it was just some dude you had sex with a few times? And also, they end up getting engaged? Well, if you can't imagine what you'd do, let's take a look at what Leela does. Meanwhile, Fry and Bender surf in the sewers with Leela's dad. Cowabunga, dude! We also talk about what the best sewers to surf in would be, and Detective...

Bender gets a new job getting pictures of Spider-Man... I mean, celebrities. And it brings him on an ultimate quest to get the un-photographable photograph and kills a few friends in the process. Meanwhile at Back to the Futurama studios, we're talking about the World Acting Competition. We get sued by Meat Loaf... maybe again? It's possible we've done that bit once before. Ben makes a vampire cal...

Election season already? But the problem is all the candidates are the same collection of sound bites. But what if... what if there was a great candidate who was definitely probably born on Earth and also maybe from the future? Would you vote for him or would you vote for Nixon? Meanwhile, we talk about space vampires and sexy ghosts. And if that doesn't get you to listen then I don't know how to...

The discovery of a Mayan... er... Martian calendar that predicts the end of the world in 3012 prompts panic and mass evacuations. How will the PlanEx crew ever cope? Meanwhile, Ben has some feelings about the whole "the world will end in 2012 thing" and we also try to figure out if Grey Poupon has an internet presence in 2019. Ben's birthday party gets canceled. Mike gets a new soundbite.

We're back for the final season of Futurama! We start off by answering the question we've always had, if we're going to be honest: where do robot babies come from? We were just too embarrassed to ask. Bender probably was too, because he didn't know and now he's got a kid. WARNING: This episode is very heavy on Bens. But why are we warning you? Bens are great. Meanwhile we try to get in on some of...

We're doing a Q&A as our final season break episode! You had questions, and we answered them! As promised, you can find Machinimasound at machinimasound.com for all your musical needs. They did the intro. We payed them for it so we don't have to thank them for it, but tonight we're gonna thank them for it. Ben is Frank Nastyman. Mike peers into the future to watch Guardians of the Galaxy 3 .

Futurama is a product of the early 2000s in America, but what if it were actually a 40s cartoon? Or a video game? Or from Japan? We find out in this rather bizarre setup in which those things happen. Meanwhile, we talk a lot about video games. It was bound to happen considering how much video game stuff was in here. Also, Ben is in chill-mode so we talk about like... daiquiris or somesuch. Ben cra...

We would all love to be smarter and faster, but what if we could do that thing I just said because we were all robots? That's exactly what Bender does in this tech tale. Fry and Leela have some serious talks about their relationship that involves space busses. Meanwhile, we also talk about computers a lot. It turns out we're HUGE NERDS. Who knew? Plus, you get the best story about an End User Lice...

We regret to inform you that our noses are gunked up with blork... is what we'd be saying if we had the common cold. In our day, it's so common that it's... well, called "the common cold," but in the year 3012? Not so much! Meanwhile, we make more King of the Hill references (mostly Ben does this) and we get a little bit real about some father-son bonding. Ben wants to tell you what. Mike remember...

When you go back in time to beat up your ancestor, you have to do it carefully unless you want to end up using the metric system! [spooky music plays]. That's just what Professor Farnsworth does in order to save his family name. Other talking points are... shark jumping and also a lot of time travel philosophy. You might also accidentally learn something about history in this episode! It's edutain...

Fry sits on an egg and falls in love with it. A natural reaction. Then it turns out that it is a vicious monster with an attack of type J! Then hilarity ensues...? Meanwhile we discuss what our Scooby-Doo schemes would be if we were to do some Scooby-Doo schemes. Ben tells a tale of sauce packets. Mike falls in love with a chair. Music at the end of the episode is "Super Sunday" and used with perm...

We're talking about yet another TV show inside the TV show on this podcast where we talk about TV shows! Leela decides to get in on the great racket of selling drivel to kids, and gets results! Bender also becomes a tugboat and we can't stress that enough. Meanwhile, we talk about Doug and Legends of the Hidden Temple and possible causes for March Madness AND March Sadness. Ben gets an archaeology...

Guess what? We have nothing nice to say about this one. Hashtag spoilers. We hope you enjoy anyway. And we want you to know that we love you no matter who you are. Ben gives you icebreaking tips. Mike jumps 70 feet into the air.

Bad news, everybody! Bender is dead. And on top of that, he's haunting Fry with intent to kill. We also ask important questions about the future like "what's with the pineapple vending machine?" and "what was Leela's wrist thingy called again?" Speaking of death, we contemplate the death of Flash. Some say it's about time, and that includes both of us. Ben drives a delivery hearse. Mike wants pine...

An ancient pact sealed long ago, in the ancient era of... 2927, means that Zoidberg must do the unthinkable. But will he be able to do it? Meanwhile, the Planet Express crew builds a giant murder machine. Other talking points are the worst role play ever and also pizza. An awful lot of pizza. Ben starts a newspaper. Mike reveals secrets about the forever pizza.

My God! It's full of Benders! We're inundated with Benders on today's episode. In fact, the Planet Express crew is also inundated with Benders. The whole wolrd is inundated with Benders! Bender seems fine with it. Other suggested talking points are meat cakes and... uh... butt marbles? Look, this episode goes some unexpected places, so we want to give you a warning ahead of time. Ben checks Zoidbe...
