Back to the Futurama

Wicked Human

Wake Up, Babe, New Lore Dropped

The rapture is here! Everybody is getting raptured... almost. The few stragglers try to figure out why this is happening from a scientific perspective. I guess. Mostly it's just yelling about how good science is? It's fine, we'll get into it.

Meanwhile we're talking about elevator music and Shakespeare plays somehow.

Ben dies as he lives. Mike enters his Benoit Blanc era.

Murderoni

It's All About the Danjamins

Something something scandal at a local pizzeria I simply cannot be bothered by that. But also, we go on a fun adventure to the Central Bureaucracy and fight something that does 2d12 damage. Look nerds, I accidentally say 1d12 damage when Dwight clearly said 2d12. Also I said a bastard sword does 1d12 damage when really it does 1d10, and I meant greatsword which I'm also wrong about because that does 2d6. What I was thinking of was a greataxe. Let's not call a lot of attention to it. Fry also loses his pants. So that was a plot.

Meanwhile we're talking about awkward things that happen to us, pineapple on pizza: yay or nay?, arcade cabinets, and radioactive teeth. We truly contain multitudes.

Ben finds a table of radioactive half-lives. Mike is perceived.

Crab Splatter

You Live by the Blenal Gland, You Die by the Blenal Gland

Zoidberg loses his hip bachelor pad. Leela loses patience with her parents. Fry somehow DOESN'T lose his pants in this one despite all the other times it has happened this season. Also there's something about a blenal gland and crabasaurs also existed. It's all explained in the episode.

Meanwhile we're talking about millennial memes, mayonnaise, and spiders. I'm not sure if that is supposed to get you interested in this episode or make you run away. But it's probably fine because I don't think anybody actually reads these.

Ben gets some shoes. Mike gets some shoes.

The Trouble with Truffles

I Sure Hope Somebody Got Fired for That Blunder

Bender goes truffle hunting! There's a pig! The robot mafia is there! We basically summed up the episode in three sentences. Good job everyone, we did it. Yet somehow we produced a 90 minute long episode? That's right, that must mean Back to the Futurama is back.

We're also talking about the urge to throw your phone into the river and move into the forest, and a late nod to... mayonnaise? Fine, whatever who even knows what this podcast is anymore.

Ben trips balls with a raccoon friend. Mike evolves his balls.

The White Hole

That Guy Turned into a Sekelton. It's Fine.

The crew is selected to go witness the birth of a new universe! But the problem is that they will age terribly, tens of millions of years! So they hatch a plan to sleep in a carbonara stasis and then shenanigans ensue. Of course.

Meanwhile... well we're actually kind of on task for once? We don't go on too many digressions other than a few video games. But we do try to figure out what the worst burrito fillings are.

That's a wrap on the season. See you next year!

Ben makes a vegetarian lasagna. Mike tries out for a role as Dr. Doom.
