AMERICAN DAD THE BITCHING RACE and YOU SEASON 1 EPISODE 1: Reviewed! 

Welcome to another edition of the show you love to listen to! We get into all the things today! Manic cold opens during which hyper pre-show-production-meeting energy seamlessly works itself into the introduction to the show. Games that last thirty seconds and revolve around doing the You monologue to explain the conceit of the show. 

Then we review the things we’re here to review, you see. Ah newbie, you’re being very taken care of in these here shownotes today. So Christopher reviews American Dad. And then Jeff guesses what his scores will be. And then we see how close Jeffrey was. And then Jeffrey reviews You. Christopher guesses what his scores will be. And then we see how close Christopher was. Who is the winner, who was CLOSEST? All these answers (and more!) will be revealed!

What is this more we speak of? Simply LISTEN TO THE SHOW loves. We’ve got it all. 

Debates around trash! What is it? What does it mean? Is it a pejorative or is it actually a term of endearment? Can one man’s “hey this is trash, yuck” be another man’s … also trash but “I like this trash, this is MY trash!”? 

The top 3 cartoons to fall asleep to are also discussed, from American Dad and Solar Opposites to Rick and Morty and The Cleveland Show. 

SCORES SO FAR THIS SEASON ARE: 

Jeffrey: 7

Christopher: 6

Special FAVE MOMENT FROM THE POD RECORD note for VIP read-the-whole-show-notes-members only: When Christopher changed everything and unprecedentedly … requested a second go at the 30 second game. It was great don’t get me wrong but … pandora’s box, you heard of it? D’you know what I mean? You can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube! Other cliches!
