Goin’ Down To South Park

Listeners, Tom Cruise won't come out of the closet! That's right, this week we take a trip back to a time where everybody was desperate for Ethan Hunt to finally complete his mission of coming out of the closet. Here he gets the help of his pal John Travolta (OH MY GOD!) and R. Kelly (yikes!) Meanwhile, Stan becomes the new leader of Scientology.

A real "you had to be there" episode that doesn't exactly translate well in 2026, but is still arguably one of the most culturally relevant episodes of all time. A real time capsule of 2005.

"Red Power!" That's the message of the week as we tackle 'Ginger Kids', a pretty controversial episode of the series in hindsight. It's also a great showcase for Cartman's ability to manipulate just about anyone for his own gain.

We discuss whether Parker and Stone crossed the line with their "ginger hate", Parker marrying a Japanese woman to avoid the ginger gene, Disney's weird fascination with scaring kids in the 70s/80s and more.

Safe to say, Dando was very disappointed that this wasn't a parody of the 1985 classic Follow That Bird, still, we got an absolutely hilarious episode that answers the age-old question; should gays be allowed to get married? Well, Mrs. Garrison certianly thinks not, but thankfully the town of South Park doesn't agree with her.

We also discuss the life and death of Dando's tamagotchi, Guy's hatred for The Legend Of Zorro and much more.

It's our first mailbag of 2026 and we kick things off by delving into that time Seinfeld was offended by South Park, which characters we think are living their best lives, what would happen if South Park did an "Australia" episode, South Park on Fortnite and much more.

This podcast is for anyone who likes dancing, ponies, and, uh, well... having fun on a Friday night. That's right, this week we're reviewing the episode where Butters fakes his death and dresses as a girl in order to steal a device that can tell the future. Meanwhile, in an attempt to bring his son back from the dead, Butters' father digs up what he thinks is his corpse and puts it in an Indian burial ground. Hilarity ensues!

We discuss the dark nature of the B-plot, Butters discovering himself, the new Masters of the Universe trailer, the term "snootch" vs "snizz", the evolution of Cartman's voice and more.
