Freaks and Geeks season 1, episode 7, "Carded and Discarded":
-Why do boys have to be gross about girls?
-The boys are fighting over The Vampire Diaries' Vicki Donovan, so that's pretty cool.
-Is Maureen the coolest new kid ever? Probably.
-Is Jack the only one who genuinely thought that Harris and Bill are related?
-Our love for Mr. Rosso knows no bounds. You rock that guitar, Mr. Rosso.
-We're not the fake ID types and we're totally okay with that.
-The ladies give Jack the low-down on SATs, ACTs, and why you can't just slack off during your senior year of high school.
-Lindsey's skewed view of herself/identity crisis really comes into focus in this episode.
-This is not Parks and Rec ReWatchable. (Or is it?)
-PIT (or Pit?) is real and Kristen explains it all.
-John Francis Daley has a great reaction face.
-The hosts all agree on their feelings about Nick in this episode.

Freaks and Geeks season 1, episode 8, "Girlfriends and Boyfriends":
-Interesting points on Lindsey collecting opinions about herself.
-Were Lindsey's parents helpful or did they give conflicting opinions/vibes on Lindsey dating Nick?
-Caitlin has an "icky feeling" about Nick when he's around Lindsey.
-Is Nick taking boyfriend/girlfriend cues from the people around him? Is that why things are so awkward with him?
-Jack doesn't like Cindy? You don't say!
-The rest of the hosts don't have that strong of an opinion on Cindy.
-Kristen's theory is that Cindy is purposefully "friend-zoning" Sam. Innnnnnnnnteresting.
-We're definite fans of Gordon.

Listener feedback
-We get (rightfully) called out about our inconsistency in what we refer to the characters as. Sorry, we just don't know the character names all that well yet!
-Like Freaks and Geeks? We have a few other suggestions for shows and movies that you should try.
-We got a "5 stars... duh" review and it makes us super happy.
