Back to the Futurama

What would your superpower be? Shapeshifting? Flight? Something better than our dumb butts can come up with? Would you be a hero who saves gemeralds or would you STEAL the gemerald? Aside from the New Justice Team, we talk about alternate social media platforms, IKEA furniture, tiny robots named Andrew, and the most buck wild natural history museum that ever existed. Ben becomes CEO. Mike commands...

Would you date your primary mode of transportation, even though it violates interstellar shipping statute 437-B? Bender does, and hilarity ensues. We also talk... uh... way too much about Roman Mars. We talk about the best new flavor of Cthulhu. We talk about controversial art. We talk about something called earwig honey. What don't we talk about? Ben is 23% invisible. Mike dreams of ranch dressin...

It's been teased for multiple seasons but we're going to finally find out where Leela comes from! And it's NOT where you'd expect. Unless you've seen this episode before, which you probably have. We also talk about where to buy goats, holiday specials, deals we've made regarding breakfast cereals, album names, Snakes on a Plane, and much more! Ben tries to garner a sponsor. Mike knows it's Jon Arb...

Ah, the birds and the bees, where bees fall in love and their skin turns into a semi-permeable membrane for the exchange of DNA with birds. Wait, that's how it works, right? Aside from yet another gross tale of alien mating habits, we talk a surprising amount about Jean-Ralphio from the TV show Parks & Recreation. We talk a bit about carnival ride names, programming languages, and give mad pro...

Podcon lined up with our traditional season 3 break, so we talk a little bit about Podcon. Most of the episode is then spent sharing a favorite thing outside the realm of Futurama for each of us. Mike talks a bit about his all time favorite musician, Weird Al Yankovic. Ben talks about another of his nerdy hobbies, Dungeons and Dragons.

Bender does something or other about cooking. But honestly, we're in this one for Zoidberg. Zoidberg and his love of a great and mysterious bottle and a ship built within it. Other hugely important topics we talk about A1 Steak Sauce, steaks, portals, failed t-shirt schemes, cilantro, and WoW raiding soundtrack tips. Ben is thinking of Eugene, Oregon. Mike goes on a cilantro tirade.

This week's episode is coated in the dazzling veneer of the 1980s. We're talking a lot about money and business and lot of things Ben specifically doesn't understand. We also come up with an interesting theory about Matt Groening, ask a favor of Lin-Manuel Miranda, the timely humor of ballot jokes from 2000. And of course, The Safety Dance. Ben isn't looking at the big picture. Mike is a shark.

God is somewhere in space, or at least so believe a sect of monks high in the mountains. Also, a robot was there, and that robot was Bender. Yes, we're talking about a strangely religious episode of Futurama today. We also talk about hatch green chilis, SimCity, a crazy conspiracy about the What-If Machine, being sued by Oprah, and where to hang paintings of yourself as Napoleon. Ben kills everybo...

You should be careful if you ever find yourself back in time, lest you cause yourself to not exist. Existing is basically all you do, after all. We talk about time travel, karaoke (AGAIN. WE CAN'T STOP), mattress tag humor, eggs and pie, and we forget who Gomer Pyle is. Most of all, we talk about causality and some gross things. Ben rides into the disintegration zone. Mike uses some All-Purpose Sp...

"What if" is always a dangerous question to ask, which is why we're doing it again in part 2 (electric boogaloo). Be forewarned: when you listen to this, you can't unlisten to this. We also talk about emotions, and how to tell if a person is really a human, and laugh a lot about video game references. We talk about how to reverse things (which involves doing things in reverse), inflatable coconut...

If we change our slogan to "REMEMBER US" will you remember us? What if we became the lords of all creation? Actually, it's probably best that such a thing doesn't happen. In addition, in this episode we talk about Mike's bad sports teams and Ben's Sims. We accidentally start yet another podcast about fonts. We talk about attitudes on butt. We also talk about Futurama, I guess. Ben falls in love. M...

Let's face it: the NNY Mets stink out loud. How do you get butts into those seats? With the first professional female blernsball player who also happens to have one eye and also be really bad. We also talk an awful lot about pizza and flaming magnesium, selling things on eBay, and we accidentally steal a McElroy bit. Please don't sue us, sirs. We also get a SURPRISE GUEST and we guarantee you won'...

We've all had a phase where we wanted to date a robot; why hide that fact in shame? Today we're talking about dating robots and it probably works out for everybody. We talk a lot about The Scary Door, blowing up planets, timely references to music sharing services, some of Ben's patented dating advice™, and really bad movies. Ben puts Spencer on blast. Mike buys the Milky Way.

By the time this episode ends, it will be August, so we hope it is time well spent. We're gonna talk about the Globetrotters and mutants and also Kelsey Grammer may make an appearance. We also talk about awkward banners to hang in your apartment, naked conga lines, and the best kind of fine china. Ben does even more bad impressions. Mike does some showboating algebra.

Everybody secretly wants to quit their job and become a musician-poet who transcends genres even as they reinvent them. What happens when you finally achieve that dream? We also accidentally plug some home brewers' beers and invent a really terrible sitcom. We maybe talk about state names a lot. Honestly, this one is kind of all over the place. Ben is confused in the laundromat. Mike becomes a Cyl...

A series of unfortunate events meant that we couldn't record this week! So we hope you enjoy a small selection of our many outtakes.

When your 12 year old sons take over your company and turn it into a rude, crude delivery company, you have only one option: listen to our podcast! We hope you like our podcast even if that's not your specific scenario. Also there's a great side plot about making beer and we're really into that. We also talk about chemistry nerds, dogs with thrusters, the video game Paperboy, and proper names for...

WE PODCASTING ROBOTS HAVE PRODUCED A PODCAST FOR YE. We discuss an episode all about insane robots and also a robot who is maybe a fidget spinner. We get into other great topics like Cypress Hill, teeth, retirement plans, beeping, and great accomplishments in making Futurama references. Ben doesn't understand money. Mike is tuning his banjo.

Get ready for a rough and tumble cattle drive where we tell nobody our feelings (but we still have them). We talk about some cool things like how (un)cool we are, how (un)cool Kif is, Powerpoint presentations, pretending to be rich when you're not, and how printers cause blue screens of death. We also talk about some uncool things like stereotypes. But it's mostly the cool things. Probably like 95...

We know you've always wondered what would happen when a criminal robot adopts 12 children, and today we're talking about that answer. We also talk about being perfectly normal and having two eyes. And we talk about creating perfectly normal greeting cards for perfectly normal people. We also detail quite a lot of movies we haven't seen (spoiler: it's a lot). Ben waits for a job offer from Hallmark...

Today Ben and Mike talk Hollywood. The comedy. The drama. Webster's Dictionary defines comedy. We also talk about the Great Gatsby again (sorry), Dr Pepper knockoffs, bending molecules to heat them, ink, Tarsharknado, and as always, other things we can't even remember anymore. Also, a cameo from the Channel Surfing Podcast! Check them out at http://thechannelsurfingpodcast.libsyn.com/, on Twitter...

Brains make people dumb! Like this podcast! Dumb dumb podcast. You listen to podcast now? I made good sentence. Please give ham. Also we discuss ham-related pickup lines, and hypnotoads and pet shows and classical literature that may or may not feature giant brains. We tried to get Colin Firth for this episode but his agent concluded we were dullards and we didn't have a good comeback for that. We...

Everybody has pent-up bend lust, some people and robots just tend to do something about it. Robot love is a weird thing (as we all learned in high school) so let's do an episode all about robot love! And bending. And the robot mafia. And really dumb plans about ways to win back the fembot that is the ex wife of your best robot pal. Everything gets complicated. We also find out about the mysterious...

Let's fly penguins to Pluto and dump oil on them! Wait. That sounds like a bad idea. But that's what we did in this episode. Bender spends some time as a penguin and I think we're pretty okay with that. Penguins are cool. We also talk about Ben's girlfriend twirling, nature's long-johns, eating penguin eggs, and why you probably shouldn't hug on the job. Ben insults people. Mike goes on a highly c...

Some people are born lucky, and some people need the magic of a seven leaf clover. And some people are so unlucky that they've run over black cats luckier than themselves. We delve into some melancholy tones in this one so strap in. But we also talk about a lot of dumb things as you have come to expect. In addition to finding out more about Fry's past, we also talk about naming race horses, get so...
