We are nearing the end of John Swartzwelder's time writing for the show, and he's turned in a quality script as the show gets political again in 2003. Krusty is a celebrity running for public office (can you believe it) and has the support of The Simpsons and Republicans. But is it possible to make a difference without Walter Mondale's help? We explain that, references to Joe Millionaire, Ronald Reagan, and more in this week's podcast!

I feel like I saw the commercial for <i>Bringing Down the House</i> a hundred times and the "What's a rack? / IT'S A COUNTRY" moment is forever implanted in my brain. Never saw the actual movie.

I can’t help but bring up “where’s Springfield?” discourse but I like how Krusty’s election is for “Springfield’s 24th district”. I know it’s the writers just short-handing but I like the idea of Springfield’s state simply being named Springfield. It neatly explains away stuff like Springfield State Prison, character’s driver’s licenses and license plates away too. I always thought David Silverman’s coinage of “North Takoma” was fun too, but I digress. Also, even if 24 was all the congresspeople their state had, they’d be the 5th largest state by population at the time.

Speaking of how old politicians have become, it blew mind mind to realise that Bill Frist is younger than all of his successors as Senate Majority Leader, a position he last held in 2007

Catching up on episodes this month after long audiobooks and I’m sure that the final crawl joke was “right wing of chicken healthier”
