| 99 + 100 The Journal | 24 Jun 2023 | 00:59:52 | |
Here we go. It’s the final episode of Hey Arnold! as a TV show – not including the movies – and it’s a doozy of a Stoop Kidz! episode, too. Arnold learns more about his parents’ mission to help save the Green-Eyed People of San Lorenzo – the mission that would take them away from him seemingly forever. Join Cody, Emily, and Harry as they dive one last time into an episode of the cartoon that gave them so many beloved childhood memories.

| 90A Arnold Visits Arnie/90B Chocolate Boy (with Hannah Borenstein) | 22 Apr 2023 | 00:55:49 | |
If today’s guest had an Arnie, she might be named Anna: Hannah Borenstein returns for another Stoop Kidz! double-header! We meet more of Arnie’s friends, who look and sound suspiciously like the kids of Hillwood, in “Arnold Visits Arnie”: Lulu, Hilda, and Arnie reflect some of Arnold’s deepest anxieties. Hot tip: Maybe don’t go see a movie called Evil Twin 3 when you have a weird cousin who kinda looks like you. Then, Arnold puts his do-goodery to work helping Chocolate Boy address his well-known vice in “Chocolate Boy”!

| 14A Spelling Bee/14B Pigeon Man | 20 May 2021 | 00:44:47 | |
“Spelling Bee” contrasts Arnold’s support system with Helga’s self-reliance, but without the J-U-D-G-M-E-N-T. Time, patience, and the right berries might be the salve for what ails Arnold’s pet pigeon Chester in “Pigeon Man,” but it takes more than that for us to learn to trust again after trauma.

| 13A Tutoring Torvald/13B Gerald Comes Over | 14 May 2021 | 00:45:48 | |
In “Tutoring Torvald,” Hey Arnold! speaks to the very real issues with American public education and the importance of family support. In “Gerald Comes Over,” Gerald comes over and gets a good look at life inside Sunset Arms. Maybe too good a look. If you love the show, we’d love for you to leave a review!

| 12A Das Subway (feat. Sophie Blumenstock)/12B Wheezin’ Ed (feat. Evelyn Frick) | 07 May 2021 | 01:01:26 | |
Featuring special guests Sophie Blumenstock and Evelyn Frick (Friends Like Us Podcast)! In “Das Subway,” a freak accident brings together metropolitan denizens from every walk of life for one paranoid day. “Wheezin’ Ed” is another urban myth that piques the gang’s curiosity so strongly that they leave the mainland to scope it out.

| 11A Benchwarmer/11B Cool Jerk | 30 Apr 2021 | 00:41:44 | |
Arnold plays Grandma to the coach’s son in “Benchwarmer,” and we talk about the highs and lows of middle school basketball. In discussing “Cool Jerk,” an episode about a cool jerk, we dig up the cool jerks from our youth. If you love the show, we’d love for you to leave a review!

| 10A Door Number 16/10B Arnold as Cupid (feat. Wayne Stainrook) | 23 Apr 2021 | 00:59:29 | |
Featuring special guest Wayne Stainrook (https://twitter.com/stainwaynerook)! “Door Number 16” uses a missing package to introduce the boarders of Sunset Arms to the family member they met too late. In “Arnold as Cupid,” Susie should definitely not be with Mr. Kokoshka... or maybe anyone… but Arnold gets over it long enough to play matchmaker.

| 9A Mugged/9B Roughin' It (feat. Drew Tenenbaum) | 14 Apr 2021 | 01:00:01 | |
With special guest Drew Tenenbaum (https://twitter.com/AshCoolBro), we’re reminded of Grandma’s sage advice in “Mugged”: there’s a difference between standing up for yourself and being the aggressor. Then in “Roughin’ It,” a camping trip takes Arnold and Helga’s families out of their element – and nobody survives it alone. (It’s a lot like A Goofy Movie.)

| 8A The List (feat. Charlie Mackin)/8B Haunted Train (feat. Kyle Olson) | 08 Apr 2021 | 00:54:41 | |
What’s on your list today? In our first guest episode, we’re joined by Charlie Mackin to discuss how “The List” recontextualizes the ways we used to spend weekends and how we do that as adults in 2021. Then good friend and resident rail guy Kyle Olson hops aboard for some “Haunted Train” chat, adding coal to the fire as we talk about the terrifying titular train.

| 7A Operation Ruthless/7B The Vacant Lot | 01 Apr 2021 | 00:38:32 | |
Hi, Ruth. Hi, Ruth. Hi, Ruth. Hi, Ruth. Hi, Ruth. In “Operation Ruthless,” we see Arnold and Helga at their most vulnerable, while they see both warped and idealized reflections as they pursue the people they want. “Vacant Lot” is a Marxist parable with a Backyard Baseball spin.

| 6A Heat/6B Snow | 23 Mar 2021 | 00:36:56 | |
Who doesn't remember their first snow day? Even before watching, the Kidz fondly recalled "Heat" and "Snow" as two of the first Arnolds we remember loving. On this episode, we unpack what exactly makes this legendary double header so memorable by discussing how both episodes manage to leverage Arnold's inimitable visuals, music, and community world-building to evoke special moments of childhood both so specific and so universal that no one ever really forgets how they feel.

| 5A 6th Grade Girls/5B The Baseball | 16 Mar 2021 | 00:37:26 | |
“6th Grade Girls” sees Gerald and Arnold at their funkiest, freshest, and maybe least mature. We reminisce about how “The Baseball” is all about saying hello and goodbye to your hero at the same time. If you love the show, we’d love for you to leave a review!

| 89A Suspended/89B Ernie in Love (with Charlie Mackin) | 14 Apr 2023 | 00:58:59 | |
Charlie realized that not being a guest on Stoop Kidz! isn’t so cool after all, so she climbed up to our window, built a giant slingshot, put on a pizza delivery disguise, and straight-up BEGGED to be back on! Actually, that’s just what Harold does to get back into school in “Suspended”. Not even the school constitution can help lift Harold’s weeks-long ban from school! Short guy Ernie just wants a tall wife in “Ernie in Love,” but he gets a little overzealous in dating Lola. She’s just not that into him, and they’d look strange together, and you can’t really talk about attraction in a kids’ cartoon – but there might be a positive message to read in Ernie and Lola’s tryst, and we wanted to get to the heart of it!

| 4A Helga's Makeover/4B The Old Building | 09 Mar 2021 | 00:33:51 | |
Gender takes center stage in “Helga’s Makeover,” and we discuss how the episode doesn’t talk down to its audience. Then we dig into the generational gap into which Arnold finds himself thrown in “The Old Building” and how a nine-year-old could mediate conflict better than two grown adults.

| 3A Arnold's Hat/3B Stoop Kid | 02 Mar 2021 | 00:34:46 | |
In “Arnold’s Hat,” we learn how external self-expression can be as important as who you are inside and talk about the clothes that defined us as kids. In “Stoop Kid,” our namesake episode, Stoop Kid's afraid to leave his stoop – so Arnold is determined to make it a little bigger for him. If you love the show, we’d love for you to leave a review!

| 2A The Little Pink Book/2B Field Trip | 22 Feb 2021 | 00:37:29 | |
In discussing “Little Pink Book,” Emily, Cody, and Harry question who’s the real main character of Hey Arnold!, the line between teasing and bullying in childhood romance, and where the show takes Helga over the next few seasons. Then we head to ‘the big house for fish’ with “Field Trip,” meeting anarcho-communist queen Grandma for the first time as Arnold learns a valuable lesson about why eco-terrorism is good, actually.

| 1A Downtown as Fruits/1B Eugene's Bike | 16 Feb 2021 | 00:33:47 | |
“Do vegetables have souls?” This and other shocking questions in the first episode of Stoop Kidz! “Downtown as Fruits” unites our hero, suitor, and other crucial cast members for a school play while establishing the postmodern vibes that would come to define Hey Arnold! Then, in “Eugene’s Bike,” we see Arnold try to take responsibility for his actions with, uh… mixed results. If you love the show, we’d love for you to leave a review!

| Welcome to Stoop Kidz! A Hey Arnold! Podcast | 10 Feb 2021 | 00:20:33 | |
Welcome to Stoop Kidz!, a Hey Arnold! Podcast where Cody Narveson, Emily Csuy, and Harry Mackin tackle one of their favorite childhood cartoons episode by episode to rediscover Hillywood and the fourth-graders who inhabit it through adult eyes. In this introductory episode, we explain what Hey Arnold! means to us, examine how we’ve changed with it, and what it's like to learn more about each other through shared formative media.

| 88A Ghost Bride/88B Gerald vs. Jamie O (with Niky Horowitz) | 06 Apr 2023 | 01:09:42 | |
It all started a hundred years ago, in 1923… actually, it started in March 2023 when we recorded this episode with Niky Horowitz! Hillwood’s urban legends take a turn for the tragically romantic when Arnold and friends learn of the Ghost Bride (and her philandering sister!) in “Ghost Bride”. Nike’s back for their second Jamie O.-centric episode with “Gerald vs. Jamie O.,” which pits brother against brother in Gerald’s bid for the attention of pretty teenager Chloe.

| 87A Beaned/87B Old Iron Man (with Ryan Csuy) | 01 Apr 2023 | 01:08:18 | |
Welcome yet another Csuy to the podcast – Ryan Csuy makes his debut on the stoop! In “Beaned,” Helga develops traumatic amnesia (watch out for that baseball!), igniting Arnold’s caretaker instincts. It’s so nice that even after she recovers, Helga pretends she’s still out of it just to get more attention from Arnold without having to say she wants it. An old rivalry is given new life in “Old Iron Man” when former coworker and friend-turned-boss man Jimmy Kafka resurfaces in Grandpa’s life. Can they put aside their differences or will they succumb to old man anger?

| 86A Helga's Locket/86B Sid and Germs (with Dan Nagan) | 23 Mar 2023 | 01:09:05 | |
YOU FORGOT YOUR MOUSTACHE!!! Dan Nagan (https://twitter.com/adapperdanman) is back! “Helga’s Locket” is a lot like “Helga Blabs It All,” except instead of a voicemail, she’s trying to prevent Arnold from reading the confessional inscription on a love locket she made! Grandpa gets ahold of it but can’t open it, leading to a convoluted series of events that keeps it JUST out of Helga’s reach. Depending on how you look at it, it’s either too plain or it reaches Simpsons levels of goofy cartoonishness! In “Sid and Germs”, the Beatle-booted boy develops a sudden germophobia on the cusp of Hillwood’s prestigious frog-catching contest. It’s an episode that puts Sid BACK in full paranoia mode, which isn’t his worst mode, tbh.

| 85A Stuck in a Tree/85B Rhonda Goes Broke | 18 Mar 2023 | 00:58:01 | |
Arnold, Harold, and Eugene get stuck in a tree in “Stuck in a Tree” and Chocolate Boy may be their only hope. Heaven help them! Rhonda gets a taste of working class living conditions (Sunset Arms) when Daddy Lloyd’s stocks go bunko in “Rhonda Goes Broke”! It all wraps up pretty conveniently, before Rhonda has time to learn a whole lot, which is kind of how it works for rich people in real life, too.

| 84A New Bully on the Block/84B Phoebe Breaks a Leg | 10 Mar 2023 | 00:50:54 | |
DUDE! Wolfgang meets his match when the new kid, Ludwig, attempts to take over his turf – the hallowed vacant lot – in “New Bully on the Block”. Phoebe’s finally had it with Helga’s bossing around in “Phoebe Breaks a Leg,” leading the people-pleasing mathlete to take drastic measures just to get out from under Helga’s thumb – faking a broken leg! Her secret can’t last forever, of course. In this episode, we discuss where Helga and Phoebe’s relationship is before and after the incident!

| 83A Bag of Money/83B Principal Simmons (with Drew Tenenbaum) | 03 Mar 2023 | 01:21:09 | |
Drew’s back and he’s carrying exactly $3,937 cash in a bag! (Or is it just a bunch of birdseed?) When Arnold, Gerald, and Sid find a bag filled with thousands of dollars in “Bag of Money”, it kicks off a nightmarish plot of distrust and cynicism among the friends. It’s one of the most infamous episodes of Hey Arnold!, up there with “Arnold Betrays Iggy” as an episode nobody really likes! Why’s that? Tune in! Mr. Wartz is OUT and Mr. Simmons is IN – as principal! – in “Principal Simmons”! When the crochety principal finally caves to criticism, the genteel educator steps into his shoes, but he doesn’t really like what he finds. Yelling at kids all day long ain’t exactly easy, y’know.

| 82A Gerald's Game/82B Fishing Trip | 25 Feb 2023 | 00:55:19 | |
Gerald gets a little bit too into The King Rules, a card game, in “Gerald’s Game”. It becomes a bit of a point of shame, prompting Arnold to (you guessed it) intervene to get his friend back. How necessary was that? Why couldn’t two best friends just learn to play a game together? Listen in to find out! It’s a boys’ weekend in “Fishing Trip” when Arnold, Gerald, Sid, Harold, and Eugene get together with their fathers and Grandpa for some lakeside bonding.

| 98 April Fool's Day (with Dylan Guerber) | 17 Jun 2023 | 00:48:50 | |
King of the Fools Dylan Guerber returns to the stoop for one final time! Arnold and Helga’s April 1 prank one-upmanship mirrors the secrets they keep from each other in “April Fool’s Day,” where Helga’s not-so-innocent practical jokes escalate tension between the two. In our discussion of this half-hour special, we discuss its place in the story of Arnold and Helga, its development, and the pranks we pulled in our own youth!

| 80 Summer Love | 14 Jan 2023 | 00:46:34 | |
Arnold and Helga end up at the same beach resort for what’s supposed to be a relaxing summertime getaway. But before Helga can put Operation Be Nice to Arnold into action, Summer (the girl) comes calling for Arnold, threatening to ruin Helga’s whole summer (the season). Helga warns a smitten Arnold that the bombshell isn’t all that she seems, but given their contentious relationship, Arnold isn’t quite ready to believe Helga. Some episodes of Hey Arnold! feel cursed – like despite top-tier writing talent and a great premise, they still miss the mark and leave a terrible taste behind. “Summer Love” is one of those rare strange episodes that just doesn’t sit right. In this episode, the Kidz mull over the implications of this fateful summer vacation, the strange side-plots that litter the beach, and why this one feels worse than sand in your swim shorts.

| 79 Dino Checks Out | 07 Jan 2023 | 00:43:20 | |
“Here lies Dino Spumoni,” lies a lying tombstone for the low-rent Sinatra himself! Hoping to see a postmortem popularity bump, Dino Spumoni fakes his death and moves back to Sunset Arms, where he grew up. The spoof works arguably too well, and in typical Hey Arnold! fashion, Dino gets exactly what he wants in the exact way he doesn’t want it: Impersonators fill the Dino-shaped hole, leaving Dino second-guessing his simulated suicide.

| 78 Helga on the Couch (with Charlie Mackin) | 31 Dec 2022 | 01:06:13 | |
Charlie Mackin stops by to discuss one of the most important episodes of Hey Arnold! and a classic in its own right! “Helga on the Couch” is remembered as an episode that changed everything for Helga. An outburst like any other turns into school-mandated therapy sessions with Dr. Bliss, a child psychologist assigned to PS 118. On the couch (and in the chair and behind the dart board and pacing the room), Helga comes to terms (almost accidentally) with the love she feels for Arnold, tying it directly to the love Big Bob and Miriam gave to Olga instead of her. It’s a climactic episode that provides serious catharsis for Helga and the audience alike, while managing to keep the tension of Helga’s secret taut as ever. Also, Baby Arnold forever.

| 77A Helga's Masquerade/77B Mr. Green Runs (with Hannah Borenstein) | 24 Dec 2022 | 01:10:03 | |
Hannah Borenstein is back to tackle two more classic eps with the Kidz! Helga’s ruse goes awry in “Helga’s Masquerade” when she mimics Lila to earn Arnold’s affection, only to earn it for the wrong reasons. Local politics have kept necessary road repairs at bay for too long, so Mr. Green seeks a seat on the Hillwood City Council in “Mr. Green Runs.” It’s an episode that highlights the types of people who become powerful at a local level, being a self-styled voice of the people, and what it means to become part of the civic machine.

| 76A Grandpa's Sister/76B Synchronized Swimming | 17 Dec 2022 | 00:54:33 | |
Grandpa Phil and his twin sister, Mitzi, don’t get along. Like, at all. With beef that goes back decades, can Arnold insert himself as mediator before the fraternal feud boils over into disaster in “Grandpa’s Sister”? In “Synchronized Swimming,” Coach Wittenberg wants to show Arnold, Gerald, Harold, Stinky, and Stinky that synchronized swimming isn’t just for girls. (And save his job.) In the process, he gives them a place to express themselves and their emotions through water-based dance.

| 75A Monkeyman!/75B Buses, Bikes, and Subways (with Seth Zarate) | 10 Dec 2022 | 01:09:15 | |
Our own superhero Seth Zarate (https://twitter.com/snzarate) is back to assist the weak and downtrodden with another guest appearance! It wouldn’t be another day in Hillwood without another vigilante realizing he doesn’t fit in with “normal” society! In “Monkeyman!,” Monkeyman gets a taste of everyday life with Arnold’s help – but the simian superhero finds it hard to let go of his apelike adventurousness. In “Buses, Bikes, and Subways,” Helga and Harold have to find a way back to town after the bus strands them on a field trip. It’s called “intermodal transportation,” kids, and Helga will leverage any means she can to get back in time for WrestleMania. Also, Cody’s never had a banana split??????????????

| 74A Helga Sleepwalks/74B Fighting Families | 03 Dec 2022 | 00:38:08 | |
In “Helga Sleepwalks,” a poor choice (eating only pork rinds for days on end) has bad consequences for Helga – namely, her somnambulant confessions of love for Arnold! It’s one of the first episodes where she really starts to recognize how holding in her feelings is affecting her. In “Fighting Families,” Arnold, Grandpa, Grandma, and a couple of the boarders make a game show appearance and they don’t compare favorably to the prim and proper nuclear family on the other team. This being Hey Arnold!, though, you know it’s gonna end well for Arnold and his weird found family. If you like Stoop Kidz!, tell a friend about our show and leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

| 73A Weird Cousin/73B Baby Oskar with Dan Nagan | 18 Nov 2022 | 01:14:05 | |
Welcome Dan Nagan of Everything We Learned (https://twitter.com/adapperdanman) back to the stoop! Arnie, Arnold’s country bumpkin cousin, is a bit of a chad. Such is Arnold’s plight in “Weird Cousin,” which has big ENEMY (2013) vibes. In “Baby Oskar,” there’s a baby named Oskar and Oskar Kokoshka, who is not a baby but often acts like one, has to take care of the baby named Oskar. Hope that’s clear enough for ya. Can Adult Man Oskar overcome his immaturity and dependence long enough to care for an immature, dependent baby?

| 97A Timberly Loves Arnold/97B Eugene, Eugene! | 10 Jun 2023 | 00:59:40 | |
Arnold has to face his on-again off-again crush on Lila once and for all when he starts getting attention from an unexpected source: Gerald’s little sister! “Timberly Loves Arnold” is a bit all over the place (didn’t we close the book on #LilArnold? Why’s Gerald so absent? Why’s Sid gotta be so creepy?), but it does get the Kidz a bit nostalgic for the social awkwardness of childhood crushes and sibling tag-alongs. Timberly’s good people. “Eugene, Eugene!” dramatizes the relationships among the kids of P.S. 118 when theater director (and Mr. Simmons’s archrival) Mr. Leichliter brings a production of the titular stage play to the school. Spurned by a former love, Leichliter changes the ending of the play so the bad guy (Arnold) gets the girl (Lila) – and long-suffering Eugene won’t stand for it. In our discussion, we talk about the framing of narratives as school play, how inconsequential Helga is, and how cool Tim Curry is.

| 72A Back to School/72B Egg Story (with Dylan Guerber) | 11 Nov 2022 | 01:01:57 | |
New kid Dylan Guerber shows up on time for his first episode of Stoop Kidz! Grandpa never finished grade school, so the ever-helpful Arnold brings him to PS 118 for some remedial education in “Back to School”. In “Egg Story,” Arnold goes on the defensive before Helga can lay into him during a class project, unaware she was going to give the whole ‘being nice’ thing a try.

Grandpa has until Sunday to train for a game of golf against Big Bob, and the loser’s on the hook for damages after their contentious fender bender. With a big bill on the line, can Arnold whip Grandpa into golfing shape before tee time in “Grudge Match”? Big Patty and Rhonda get some facetime in “Polishing Rhonda,” where the young socialite risks getting kicked out of finishing school for her self-centeredness. And who should she run into at that same finishing school than humble brute – and frequent target of Rhonda’s derision – Big Patty?

| 69A It Girl/69B Deconstructing Arnold | 22 Oct 2022 | 00:52:01 | |
Fashion designer Johnny Stitches discovers Helga’s hidden talent for the runway and makes her the new “It Girl”. The more she leans into her prickly persona, the more the crowd loves it. But she’s not a fan of having her ‘natural’ meanness, nastiness, and insensitivity co-opted by everyone in town, so she starts looking for an out. Arnold is separated from his own essential self (a nosy, do-gooder fount of advice) in “Deconstructing Arnold,” when his friends implore him to stop being such a kibitzer (that’s Yiddish for ‘big, fat buttinski’). It’s not long before several moments of crisis have them yearning for his avuncular advice, but Helga steps in to fill the gap – and her suggestions turn P.S. 118 a bit of an amoral bedlam.

Helga seeks to ruin Arnold and Lila’s time at the Cheese Festival in “Love and Cheese,” a sort of slant-sequel to “Operation Ruthless.” Then Harold’s size is suddenly the talk of the town in “Weighing Harold,” in which he gains weight on a trip where he was trying to lose it.

It’s a weird pair of episodes on this edition of Stoop Kidz! Helga’s pet parrot might squawk her deepest secrets in “Helga’s Parrot,” leading her on a wild bird chase across Hillwood that ends in the most natural, traumatizing way possible. As ‘future Chocolate Lads,’ Arnold and Gerald make money hand over fist to raise money for a go-kart in “Chocolate Turtles,” only to find themselves on the losing end of their own capitalist charade.

Dan Nagan (https://twitter.com/adapperdanman) is lurking in the background, ready to getcha when you least expect it! The kids of Hillwood start to wonder if a local myth is real as the coincidences pile up in “Headless Cabbie”. If you haven’t seen it, imagine the Hash-Slinging Slasher from SpongeBob.

| 63A Full Moon/63B Student Teacher | 09 Sep 2022 | 01:00:46 | |
When Sid, Harold, and Stinky are accused (correctly) of mooning Principal Wartz in “Full Moon,” Arnold could get a permanent mark on his record for keeping his trap shut. “Student Teacher” sees the return – and weird, unceremonious departure – of Helga’s least favorite sister-turned-sub.

| 96 Married (with Seth Zarate) | 03 Jun 2023 | 00:46:48 | |
Seth’s back on the stoop and he’s got COOTIES in this very special episode of Stoop Kidz! Rhonda’s origami game predicts each kid’s perfect matrimonial pair in “Married”. That’s right – she knows exactly who’s gonna tie the knot with whom, somewhere down the line: Peapod Kid and Nadine; Sheena and Eugene; Arnold and Helga… wait, WHAT??? The rest of the episode plays out in opposing dream sequences: Helga’s vision of her perfect married life and Arnold’s depressingly dour subconscious. But even more interesting than the things we get to see (the kids of PS 118 “all growed up”) is what their dreams say about the feelings football-headed boy and his pining potential paramour: The kinds of things they can admit to themselves, how they confront their deeply held insecurities, and “Married” as a microcosm for the show’s central conflict.
