House of House: A House Rewatch Podcast

There are guest stars aplenty for this episode where a guy takes House hostage in order to force him to make a diagnosis, yet doesn't doesn't sing any Papa Roach at all despite the episode title. House seems weirdly chill and Thirteen learns she doesn't want to die but in the meantime everyone gets injected with stuff. Avon Barksdale from The Wire shows up to tease Cuddy about her rela...

There are a couple sound issues on this one, but we just did that to try to match the quality of this House episode which is... not great. Our guest, comedian and writer Alex Kennedy is great though! So listen for our thoughts on a weird episode with some really weird takes on abuse but don't worry the abuse is fake anyway! We've also got Mountainhead corner and a whole lot of talk about s...

Lenny returns to discuss the fallout of the House/Cuddy kiss and also a House episode with one of the worst takes on mental illness which is really saying something. The patient is agoraphobic but (spoiler alert) they learn to get over it though the magic of deliberate physical and psychological torture. We also discuss the ethics of doing a bit using the RFK Jr voice. Or I guess I do that and Len...

Lenny is out this week, so writer, longtime associate, and fellow loud Jew Mike Blejer joins me to dig into a major episode with wild consequences for the show's characters. Also it's the first House episode Mike has ever seen. Does that matter? He gets the gist, and sometimes only through the eyes of a babe can we truly understand House. We dig into fascinating topics, like what would hap...

Can you even imagine how excited the Fox marketing department was when they found out this one had lesbian make out scenes? This episode of House is much like the audio of this podcast: uneven. There's some good stuff, especially with the return of the House and Wilson goof around games. Your mileage may vary but you'll definitely want to hear House say some of the least informed stuff abo...

Sara Ghaleb joins us once again to herald the retun of Wilson! Him and House go on a fun road trip and there's threats of piss and shenanigans abound. Will House reconcile with the idea of his abusive father now that he has passed? Does Wilson want House on a short leash? What would have happened if they hooked up when they first met? Also some lady has pins in her brain, don't worry about...

Comedian and friend of the cast Dan Wilbur returns to discuss an episode where Breckin Meyer plays a painter with messed up visions and also creepy stuff happens with that PI guy. Plus we discuss XXX parody ideas for the Twilight Zone, Drug names, and the world's worst game show. This is a fun episode with some all-time riffs so listen right now!

Can you replace your best friend with an annoying Private Detective? That is just one question we look to answer with our guest, comedian Rebecca Kaplan, cohost of the Bad Fan Fiction Podcast. We also rediscover noir stories from first principles, try to figure out if a math professor is a major downgrade from an architect, read some fan fiction, and more! Why did all of the patients who received...

Friend of the show Kacie Tergesen ("Girl in Trouble Stories" and "Sound Snackz") joins us again to deal with the fallout of Amber's death. Wilson wants to leave and Thirteen seems confused. She maybe wants a better job... or more responsibility... or a kid. It feels like the kind of story that would be written by a man about a woman who found out she was going to die in a d...

Sara Ghaleb returns for the big season 4 finale!! Who would win, a woman without kidneys or the flu pills that kill you if you don't have kidneys? The answer will not surprise you. It's an emotionally powerful episode with great performances but don't worry! You'll also get our takes on the big Anora vs A Real Pain screenplay page debate and whether we think it would be comfortable...

This is a big, big episode and we're glad you're here with us for it! House is playing the role of concussion detective as he tries to figure out what life threatening symptom he noticed right before taking part in a frankly wild bus crash. Along the way we get a lot of well-realized mind palace detective adventures, the wackiest stripper you've ever seen, and a strip dance from Lisa E...

Sara Ghaleb returns for a beautifully unhinged episode of House that starts with House kidnapping a soap opera star and only gets wilder from there. Did you know the hospital inspector is here for a surprise inspection? And Wilson and Amber are buying a mattress?! AND CAMERON HAS TO DO PAPER WORK? Trust me, it's great. We've also got some Emmy hot takes and some advice for how certain Supreme Cour...

Can someone be... too nice?! Well we aren't... to this episode! Yes, there's a great B plot with Amber and House fighting over Wilson, but as Lenny says the main plot feels like a parody of a House episode and then you've got two competing C plots. But hey, you get to hear Wilson talk about using lube, so it's not all bad!

Oy Vey is this ever a Jewish episode! Lenny is out this episode but comedian, writer, and friend Jay Welch is in! Laura Silverman plays a woman who becomes Chasidic, gets married, and then gets sick. Whether you like hearing about major disputes in the Talmud, tasteless reality show ideas, or whether it's smart to eat a whole bunch of Challah before major surgery, you'll find something to...

This episode of House is going down under... no, further down under than that! Yes, Mira Sorvino guest stars as a psychiatrist at the South Pole, though I think I said it was Mena Suvari. Whoops! House of House favorite Sara Ghaleb rejoins the show to discuss this episode that originally aired after the Super Bowl. It's got everything you could want, from pee drinking to a mysterious woman for Wil...

It's a Christmas Miracle for a Christmas episode! Yes, for once we actually have the Christmas episode coming out right on time. That being said, it's also a miracle that you're getting to hear this episode at all since the audio didn't process properly at first. It's still a little janky, but tis a season for forgiveness and good cheer so we hope you'll understand. Anyway, House says slurs and is...

The games are finally over... or are they just beginning?! Jeremy Renner, a man who is probably the most currently famous person to have ever been on the show, plays crusty punk rocker Jimmy Quidd who is the wildest PG rated punk you've ever seen. It's a little anticlimactic for the end of the tournament arc but there's still some fun stuff in this episode and we have fun covering it!

Well, we broke our record for longest episode again. You're WELCOME! Ellie Warren returns to discuss the curious case of a magician and a panty raid. We also get pretty blue!! If you have a problem with multiple long tangents about c*m and the 2010s comedies that revolve around it, this episode may not be for you. But you should listen anyway, because I bet you'll like it. Hey, we had fun recordin...

It's a meta episode, folks! Some documentarians are making the equivalent of a TLC show about a kid with a deformity but they lucked out, because they get to film an episode with House instead! It's also a Taub centric episode, which is quite the treat! Listen for our takes, plus the possibilities of a House revival and the reveal of the ultimate birthday boy.

Trevor Drinkwater joins us for a wild House episode where House finally gets to consult for the CIA, like we've all been waiting for! There's also polio discourse! Plus we dig deep into which actors can play Jews, talk job applications, and come up with some better names for Steven Spielberg movies and so much more! You gotta listen to this one. Right now! Do it!

Fan favorite guest and House expert Sara Ghaleb returns for a fun and goofy House episode. What will the team do when they have to treat an X-Man capable of reading people's dreams and emotions? If you guessed they'll have individual revelations, you're right! We also touch on politics, Glee, Elon Musk's stupid robots and so much more! Listen now!

It's a spooky Halloween episode for spooky season! There's talk of Beetlejuice and grave robbing. It's also a real barn burner! Lenny and me disagree on the episode's quality. You're going to want to listen to this ferocious throwdown and pick your sides. Who do you stan? Listen now!

OK, so before we get too deep into it, yes the dog dies. It's a real bummer but it's true, especially when it's such a cute dog as this one. Gabriel Laks returns for a very uneven episode. It has the highs of House sticking a knife in an electrical socket to try to see heaven and the lows of House berating a paralyzed guy because he wants his suffering to end. Also that dog dies, as we...

The tournament arc begins for real! We've got an exciting episode as we see what happens when you put a lot of people, most of whom are doctors, in a room and make them compete for House's affection. It injects a whole to of fun into the series and may be its best arc of all time?! You'll have to listen to find out for sure! We also discuss the super secret DNC guest and fame, conceptu...

It's time for a new season and you know what that means: we talk about JD Vance and Girls (2012-2017) for half an hour! But the rest of the time it's all House, baby! Chris Kopcow joins us for a great season premier with goofy Wilson antics and a twist even Shyamalan couldn't predict! You'll have to listen if you want to know more!
