Episode 89 - Dave and Steve put Jon in a Helium Hat

I'm much prouder of this title than I should be.

A bit of behind the scenes this week, I didn't edit out our pre show banter!

Great guest star week.

Oh I wish that I had Jesse's girl.

BUS CHASE!

These people are like the jet setters in that Mad Men episode.

The difference is that the people in that Mad Men episode had some class.  These people just have some crass.  Thank you.

I feel bad for J's parents, and his dog.

By the way, that was some good dog acting.

I get the idea J's parents would be Holocaust survivors. It's subtle, but I think it's there.

PIZZA HOUSE!

We get more David Chase and the mob.

Episode 88 - Dave and Steve in a Paper Palace

We're back! 

Yes we've been away, Jon and I (oh and Jon's mother...) went to Montreal, where I watched this one.

RITA MORENO!!!!!

HOCKEY!

Rita won an Emmy for this episode, and you can see why.

Dunno about the high class call girl trope.

Some truly great guest stars this week.

We also get to see more of Dennis's home life.

Again, the show takes a rather neutral look at sex work.  I don't think it's presented as 'good' but it isn't presented as 'bad' either, which is a hell of a thing.

Some shout outs to Canada this week, including the Ottawa Otters, a team with just as many Stanley Cup banners as the Ottawa senators.
