| (S6Ep13) Ann and Chris! | 31 Dec 2025 | 01:01:52 | |
Tbh, this episode should be called Ann and Leslie, but we get it :( What a beautiful send off for our Ann and Chris - the parties, the groundbreaking, the headlocks, all of it! Thank you writers, Aisha Muharrar and Mike Schur and director, Dean Holland, for making this such a magical moment for the fans to say farewell and see you soon. <3 <3 Plus, the green park bench, Tom Petty and a drone shot?! Come on. Perfect. PS, yes we talk about why they left. lol Thank you to Christopher Wolfe for sending in amazing voice memos about BTS from Farmer's Market! So fun and detailed! Don't forget to rate and review please and HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Thank you for a great 2025 year of Parks! Also a quote I found later that I didn't mention: "Rashida has a producing gig at Warner Bros. and she just sold a TV show yesterday -- I hope I'm not breaking that news -- and she's really focusing more on writing. And as I writer, I fully support that," he added. When the writers talked about what they have planned for Ann and Chris with Jones, "she was totally on board. The real headline is that everyone is happy. There's no controversy," Schur pointed out. Sources: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3460878/?ref_=ttep_ep_13 Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! | |||

| (S6Ep3) The Pawnee-Eagleton Tip Off Classic | 17 Jul 2025 | 02:04:17 | |
Classic episode alert! Leslie struggles with Ben being on her side, Tom and Donna try to get Ron off the grid, and April and Ann learn about making tough decisions by trusting your gut. :) Things we learned: - Not everyone was super pleased with this episode when it came out, what?! - Aubrey Plaza is a huge fan of Chris Bosh and told a hilarious story on Conan about meeting Bosh. (link below) - "How you like them apples?" was made famous by Good Will Hunting. (Madi knew, I did not lol) Check it out: Norm Hiscock, our fav producer in all the land, has a new show coming out - it's the King of the Hill reboot!!! Comes out on Hulu in August! Yay! https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26585105/ Mel Cowan's last episode is today! "I hate the one-at-a-time system!" Check out his interview here: Sources: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3186496/?ref_=ttep_ep_3 https://www.eonline.com/news/438317/kristen-bell-to-guest-star-on-parks-and-recreation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bonKJTqoBP8&t=20s Rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! | |||
| Ron and Tammy Part 1! (W/ Special Guest Sean Trainor!) | 10 Jun 2021 | 01:37:49 | |
IT'S RON AND BLEEPING TAMMY TIME!!!!!! This week we have the wonderful Park Pals theme song creator, Sean Trainor!!!!!! You'll feel like you're just laughing and hanging with friends because Sean, Holly, and Madi all went to Berklee in Boston together! It was so incredibly fun to reunite about Parks and Rec and go on super fun tangents (which is why we needed two parts) AND we talk about how Sean wrote the theme song for Park Pals! One day Madi will be in the same room as Sean and Holly and life will be grand.

| Our Conversation with Linda Montana! (aka Denise Yermley) | 03 Jun 2021 | 01:07:54 | |
Today we talk to the amazing LINDA MONTANA! We love her so much! She is the famous "most bookable" talent in Pawnee known for her incredible and long National Anthem (SHE SINGS IT AT THE BEGINNING FOR US, OMG THANK YOU!) but she also sings in the beauty pageant and in the city council debate with Bobby Newport! She is an amazing multi-talented, hardworking Queen, and we loved learning all about her career, she's been in the business starting with trick riding with her famous cowboy family, she's a trained opera singer and she also is an amazing voice over actor! Today we learn all about the things she had to learn for her time on the show, how she answered the phone when Amy Poehler called and her fun time on the Hawaii 5-0 set! She's such an inspiration to never give up and work really hard at what you do. Follow us on Instagram to see all the photos she was showing us throughout the episode!

| Greg Pikitis! | 27 May 2021 | 01:40:57 | |
IT'S PIKITIS TIME!!!!!!!! There are spoilers so sorry not sorry just a heads up. This week it's Halloween on Parks and Rec and some spooky, crime type stuff is going down. Join us as we tail the MANIACAL and strangely smart and turdish Greg Pikitis! Plus we learn that Halloween is Ann's favorite holiday, the do's and don'ts of TP'ing someone's house (but don't) and how to behave appropriately when you’re a guest at a party. This is an episode of firsts as well, since Ron's first pirate costume is here AND it's our first ever Halloween party! And then stick around for therapy where it gets deep because it's been a rough couple of months (that's why the episode is quite long so skip it if you need to) and we learn it's ALWAYS okay to rest and time and hard work do heal us all (but it's HARD and that's real). You're doing a lot so give yourself a reward every now and again! Also what's your fav candy? Happy THURSDAY!
