Episode 266 - Sunday, March 11, 1979

In today's episode we are unable to come up with a funny beverage-themed pun for Will Smith, the Fresh Prince. Writing this episode description, I still can't think of one. And yet, somehow I sense that there's a great one out there, somewhere, taunting us.Today's strip

Today we bid a fond farewell to Special Guest-Host Blake Smith. If you're not following him on Instagram and Twitter by this point you're likely some kind of Lovecraftian monster. Do also listen to him on Magmar Sucks as well.In this episode we discuss tractor pulls, hockey, narrative chronology, culinary etiquette, moral relativism, and a little bit of Garfield. But mostly we bullshit about movies.Today's stripStep by Stapp podcastJon's actual written review of The Hateful Eight

Today we glimpse yet another panel in the rich patchwork quilt that is Garfield's family history. Scientists estimate that if Garfield continues accruing relatives at this rate, then surely by the year 2017 or so there will be more atoms in the universe that DO belong to relatives of Garfield than atoms that don't.Today's strip

Today we make up a bunch of stuff and then lie about having done so, then accuse you the listener of having lied about us making up a bunch of stuff. It's all part of the vast conspiracy against our program by the mainstream Being Jim Davis fanbase on a daily basis. Really, no podcast in American history has ever been treated worse, or more unfairly.Today's strip

Early in the 21st Century, THE JIM DAVIS CORPORATION advanced tabby evolution into the GARFIELD phase - a being virtually identical to a human - known as a Replicant. The GARFIELD 6 Replicants were superior in strength and agility, and at least equal in intelligence, to the genetic engineers who created them. Replicants were used Off-World as slave labor, in the hazardous exploration and colonization of other planets. After a bloody mutiny by a GARFIELD 6 combat team in an Off-World colony, Replicants were declared illegal on earth - under penalty of death. Special police squads - ARBUCKLE UNITS - had orders to shoot to kill, upon detection, any trespassing Replicant This was not called execution. It was called retirement. Blake Smith! Co-host! He's on Instagram! And this other podcast!Today's strip
