I got into it more as it went along, haven't yet finished. My favourite part so far was JFK on LSD talking to himself/God. That's a new thing. Impressive use of the people alive at the time, really good research.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑04 Aug 2022, 2:33pmStarted listening to Oakley this morning.

Started listening to this. Good first episode. Embarrassingly in tune with my interests which, Ghost World like, I see as a negative.

Re: The Simpsons
Finished listening this morning. Enjoyed it more as things developed. No real jokes per se, just running with an absurd premise. The Nixon stuff was best for me—his desperation to get back in the game pushing him to manage a pizza place on the moon, telling the dog to shut up everytime it barks. Ridiculous but it does get at his essential character. I may have missed it, but was there an explanation for why Bobby isn't in the narrative?Silent Majority wrote: ↑05 Aug 2022, 2:34amI got into it more as it went along, haven't yet finished.

Finished the other day. No, I don't think I caught a mention of Bobby either. Unwound very pleasingly on the whole.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑09 Aug 2022, 12:33pmFinished listening this morning.

Re: The Simpsons
He really was perfectly cast for Poochie, it was really the writers' fault that he wasn't welcomed by children.

Bringing Poochie back is the only way I'd watch a new episode.

Ever since reading that description of Homer as a big dog, I've had this run thru my mind:

Re: The Simpsons
Just looked up the episode that's from: "Bart Carny" written by John Swartzwelder. Who is the guy who says Homer is a big dog. So it all totally checks out.
