    Special Crossover Episode 3: "The Dance"

    Special Crossover Episode 3: "The Dance"

    How many dogs? How much for cats? And what in the name of God and Wisconsin is a Munchie? We answer these questions and more as we take another giant leap into Step By Step Season 1, Episode 2. (Yes, that's not the show we normally talk about on this podcast. Yes, it does feature an important character from Family Matters. Yes, we were allegedly enjoying some nontraditional podcast fuel as we watched and recorded.)

    Alex Diamond, David Kenny, and John McDaniel heard that the long-running network sitcom Family Matters ends with side character Steve Urkel going to space. And the best way to figure out how that happened - obviously - is to watch the last episode first and make our way backwards through nearly ten years of television.

Cop Office, the Prequel

This podcast has revolutionized my lawn mowing experience.

Holy Macanoly!

Somebody call mission control because this show is off the rails. Come for the absurdity of trying to making sense of Family Matters in reverse, stay for the tangents about This Is Us, Die Hard, and The Brave Little Toaster. I laugh so hard while I’m listening to this podcast that I temporarily forget it’s 2020 and everything is terrible.

ka61 ,

Fine, you got me.

I’m un-reluctantly in.
