For the latest Triple Love Special , Alex and Andy dive into the arguably GOAT of adult animation, The Simpsons.

They start off with a rundown of the show’s origins, before Alex dives into an explanation of what he considers the three eras of the show. Highlights include discussions of how the first season is just…not that great, some ridiculous nerd-talk about individual writers, and why “The Principal and the Pauper” may not actually be the flashpoint of awfulness the Internet seems to think it is.

Andy offers some rebuttals before launching into some personal stories of the show–how it helped him through more than one difficult transition in his life and became something of a lynchpin. Alex tells his own personal stories, from mooning and mourning, and Sideshow Bob of all characters takes a surprising amount of airtime.

Finally, the discussion devolves into favorite characters, favorite moments and quotes and everything buried into our brains as we reminisce through and ruminate on one of the greatest pieces of television of all time.
