This week, we talk about the sad news of Leonard Nimoy's passing, the crazy news of Mentalist's series finale, and the leopard print banana milkshake news of the greatest new show on television, Empire. We'll also check in with Waldorph on the recent Theory of Fanfiction kerfuffle, and go through some reader questions and a correction from last week's episode, so stick around!

Wow, guys, it’s another first time, because this week Pru and MK are joined by not only The Hoyden, but also by MK’s friend Paul, the first dude we’ve ever had on the podcast. We open with a quick discussion of Sailor Moon Crystal, Mythbusters, Fresh Off the Boat, and the Legend of Zelda Netflix show (confirmed after recording). For our longer discussion this week, we dip into one of the worst fandoms that all of us share: Naruto. Tune in to learn about why Naruto is the worst, how Kishimoto gave us all blue balls, and then listen to us struggle to figure out why Kakashi is so great. (Because he is. He is SO great.) It’s a dark day for fandom, so you might as well join us as we fail at everything.

Note: there is some construction noise in the background of this episode because fucking Toronto, of course there is. Sorry about that.

What are you waiting for, the Chuunin exam? Grab the episode here and then you should follow us on Twitter.

Start inflating that pig’s bladder, folks, because it’s time for our long-threatened Little House on the Prairie episode. This week, Mistress Curvy (N) joins Pru in a covered wagon traveling from the big woods of Wisconsin all the way to South Dakota to talk about the beloved childhood book series, the way it’s left an indelible (and occasionally worrying) mark on their lives, and our collective obsession with the series’s description of food. So if listening to two grown-ass women losing their ever-loving minds about pioneer gals and hoopskirts was on your bucket list, you can cross that off with conviction.

Experience our shame by grabbing the episode here, and don't forget to follow us on Twitter for even more inanity during the week.
