Good Morning Greendale: A Community Podcast

After Pierce's funeral, everybody gathers to remember him, until a strange lawyer shows up with a polygraph team to interrogate the study group. It's another bottle episode, and you're not going to want to miss it. Unless you happen to hate canisters of hyper-verile sperm. Meanwhile, we accidentally show off how much we know about a little American sitcom called Home Improvement and share thoughts...

The Ass Crack Bandit is terrorizing the school, and the study group has to solve who dunnit. The words "butt" and "ass" are said about 30 million times. The Dean traces a call. Meanwhile, we're talking an awful lot about Ben Folds and spoiling two different non-Community shows. Whoops. Ben falls in love with a toaster. Mike dreams about Fred Willard.

I could not get a regular episode this week due to work, so how about a bonus episode? Contains many, many swears.

Jeff has his first week of teaching at Greendale and it goes exactly as well as you'd expect (a riot breaks out). Abed takes a class on Nicolas Cage and loses his mind. And us? Well, we're growing extra fingers, doing some impressions. Ben is Cage-in it to the streets. Mike is Cage in 600 seconds.

We're back with season 5, and so is the study group (sans Pierce). Jeff tries to get everybody to sue the school but in the process ends up becoming a teacher instead. The rest of the group is as codependent as ever, even after their lives have fallen apart. Meanwhile, we contemplate ways to get to adult websites, talk about being intimidating in pajamas, Mythbusters, and a certain movie about a c...

We're done with the infamous season 4 so we're blowing off some steam by talking about video games, Ted Lasso, weddings, and and concerts. Ben spends five hours picking up boxes. Mike is just a tired man.

On the eve of Jeff's graduation, the darkest timeline versions of the study group cross over into the prime timeline in order to get Jeff to be cool again, along with paintball guns that transport the person who gets shot across the timelines. Make sense? Good. It definitely makes sense. Meanwhile, we make 20 minutes of Bean Dad content, for which I regret maybe everything. But the Twitter poll I...

Abed pieces together the heroic origins of the study group and also sort of does a prequel thing. Everybody gets mad at each other as they tend to do. Also, we piece together how Community is a prequel of its own. Ben dual wields Excel spreadsheets. Mike prefers [redacted] to [redacted].

Troy and Abed switch bodies for a day. The Dean gets Jeff inside of him (didn't happen). Britta goes through a breakup. And we're here to talk about it all. Plus, Mike gets absolutely roasted by

The study group has their first grown-up Christmas party (not to be confused with adult Christmas party), and in the process, accidentally hold their history teacher hostage. It is the true meaning of Christmas, if you ask us. And since you asked us, we also talk about lying, finding people attractive, Salma Hayak, finding Salma Hayak attractive, saying the f-word, and all sorts of other groovy th...

The study group goes on an adventure in a hot air balloon, with disastrous and embarrassing consequences. We stay largely on task as we talk about it, except for the part about making a Tinder profile for Mike. Ben thanks Zuck. Mike thanks everybody but Zuck.

Britta throws a dance. Abed gets set up on dates. Jeff is kind of a jerk. If I'm gonna be honest I was up later than I meant to be editing this episode so that's all the notes. Ben gets an offer he can definitely refuse. Mike gets Changnesia.

The Dean goes "whale hunting" which means trying to entice a rich slacker to enroll in the school. Jeff and Pierce bond. Shirley and Troy bond over Physical Education Education. Abed starts a frat. Meanwhile we dig deep into the Neil Archives to figure out what Neil's last name is. Ben looks up body farms. Mike gets sticky fingers.

It's been a long time since we did any podcasting, how do we do this? I forgot. Maybe it's because we have Changnesia. I don't know much about Changnesia, but not knowing about Changnesia IS a symptom of Changnesia so that tracks. Or does it? No. No none of this makes any sense. But here we are talking about it anyway because that's what we do. Also, naturally, we spread the lore of the Bananaman....

We talk about Jeff meeting his dad and Shirley hosting Thanksgiving. MORE IMPORTANTLY WE REVEAL THE SEX QUESTION. IT IS ASKED. IT IS ANSWERED. IT IS EDITED FOR CONTENT AT THE REQUEST OF MIKE'S WIFE. Ben asks for a towel. Mike has an uncomfortable time.

It's said that history is written by the victors, but today it is being written by... two dweebs who do a podcast. And in that podcast we're talking about the study group getting into a fight with the German foosballers who make their return, and the school turns against the study group. Also, there's a plot line about Changnesia I guess. Additional topics of conversation include our favorite mugs...

The study group goes to an Inspector Spacetime convention, where betrayal, jealousy, and fantasy are all afoot. Plus, Shirley and Pierce attend a focus group for an American version of Inspector Spacetime. Joy and mirth is had by all... eventually. Meanwhile, we dig into what an appletini is and check out some abs. Ben checks the ROI on his stocks. Mike looks up a Scrubs supercut.

It's Halloween, and Pierce has somehow managed to lock himself in his panic room. Now the rest of the study group needs to search for the keycode in some sort of Scooby-Doo, Clue (or Cluedo for our UK listeners) sort of thing. Meanwhile, we're talking about sending letters to prisoners, forgetting the lyrics, and hiding doors with BluRay levers. Ben creates America's hottest new game show. Mike dr...

Here we are in season 4, and Jeff tries to earn balls to go to a history of ice cream class. Annie and Shirley pull a prank. Troy and Britta wish in a fountain. Abed goes to his happy place. Meanwhile we're talking about what the first episode of season 4 does right and what it does wrong. And we talk about staying home sick when you're in grade school. Ben watches three hours of Muppet Babies. Mi...

What was intended to be a mostly not-Community related episode turned out to be almost entirely about Community. So let's get into it. Let's talk about season four before we start season four. Ben puts a take on the griddle. Mike becomes a drum master.

We are coming to a close on season 3, as Jeff gets involved in Greendale Court, Troy becomes a messiah of AC repairmen, and Abed has a breakdown. Hashtag six seasons and a movie. Meanwhile we talk about proper toilet paper hanging etiquette, proper BLT construction, and many more things. Ben goes on a rant. Mike rips things out of walls.

IT'S A HEIST EPISODE! Everybody loves a heist. Including us! And the Greendale Seven. Can they get the Dean out before Chang destroys everything? Meanwhile we're talking about... uh, sperm whales and Moby? Ben starts a fight with Dane Cook. Mike eats carrots after Moby got to him.

Strap into your chair because we're going into the most advanced 30 year old video game a 100 year old man could create. Pierce has to win in order to get his inheritance, but things go awry when Gilbert (Giancarlo Esposito) shows up, and when Giancarlo Esposito shows up, you know it is about to go down. We, meanwhile, talk a lot about video games. For some reason. Ben lives in the village. Mike h...

Abed gets caught sneaking into Greendale after getting expelled, and it leads to him going to a therapy session with the group. Then it turns into another fake clip show! There's mostly a lot of fake flashbacks and there's not much to say here. But John Hodgman is in this one so that's cool. We talk a lot about throwing the world's greatest(?) party. And Doritos. And mac and cheese. Okay we talk a...

Picking up right where Basic Lupine Urology left off, Starburns is dead and the study group now has to deal with the heavy emotions of losing a... well, I was going to say "loved one" but I don't think that's right. Let's just call him... a guy they knew somewhat. Things get out of hand when the whole school riots and Subway threatens to pull out of their sandwich contract. Meanwhile we talk about...
