Episode 30 - Tuesday, July 18, 1978

Today's strip is a virtual masterpiece that reminds us why we started this show in the first place. Or something. We talk about the lack of transparency in the Carter administration, Jim Davis' role in 9/11, Garfield as a cynical commentary on 1970s stagflation, and why in the fuck anybody would read economic news to their cat.

We wrap up two big weeks of podcasting with our second-ever Sunday episode! A lot of people thought we'd never make it this long. Some others thought we would. Most expressed no opinion, have never met us, and presumably didn't even know we were recording a podcast. Also, most people who have ever lived are already dead. Looks like they've got egg on their faces!Today's strip

Is "cat vs. nature" the ultimate struggle? Is Garfield the hero with a thousand faces? Did they make flat screen TVs back in the 1970s? Did we discuss any of this stuff? Honestly, I edited this episode over a week ago and I can no longer remember. There's genuinely no way of knowing.Today's strip

Thank Garfield it's Friday! Today's strip is, honestly, not all that great, but nonetheless proves fodder for a spirited discussion of acronyms, feline vs. human anatomy, and (implicitly) recent policy changes at the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee.Today's strip

First Sunday strip! First appearance of Garfield's bed! First usage of the 'blurred face' motion effect. This one's got it all. It'll probably make for a really good episode of Being Jim Davis.
