Episode 9: The Fix is In w/John Hodgman
Why hasn’t Frasier returned to the Cheers bar in the revival? Friend of the pod John Hodgman makes a case for bringing Frasier back to his original drinking hole and demands more references to Boston other than Moose’s accent. John and Anita discuss their favorite moments from episode 9 including Frasier’s beautiful monologue about Martin and Andy Daly’s hilarious cameo. They also pitch who John should play in season 2: a rival Harvard professor who went to Yale. Later on, Judge John Hodgman enters the courtroom to settle a dispute between a husband who’s sick of hearing about David Hyde Pierce’s talent for physical comedy and his wife, who will never stop mentioning David Hyde Pierce’s talent for physical comedy.

I’ve been looking for a podcast like this!
I’ve been a fan of Fraiser since I was a kid and am currently revisiting Cheers & Fraiser after watching the new series and I was dying for a podcast to listen to — this one is so great and satisfying to listen to!
So fun
I love the Fraser show, and it’s just fun to have a forum to hear other opinions on the show. Especially from younger hosts
Charming!
Anita is a great host! She has encyclopedic knowledge of the show and asks great questions of guests. She has a great knack for pacing and keeping conversations going on the right direction. A great way to revisit the series and celebrate our mutual love for the show. Hoping for more episodes soon!
