Bonus! The Simpsons (with Lord Of Adders Black podcast)

There is absolutely no connection between the Goons and the Simpsons so what on earth is this special bonus episode all about?

Well, my very good friends Ian and Michael over at the Lord Of Adders Black podcast - celebrating all things Blackadder - joined me to share our love for The Simpsons and talk through our favourite episodes!

(Their podcast is really good - find it here: https://shows.acast.com/lord-of-adders-black )

Great comedy is great comedy and while it's fair to say that few people could describe most post-2000 Simpsons content as 'great comedy' the stuff that came before remains sublime. I'm not sure what a Venn diagram of Goon Show fans and Simpsons fans would look like but hopefully it's more or less a circle.

So indulge me for this special bonus episode with Michael & Ian where I get a rare chance to gush about comedy from the 1990s!

A podcast where we talk about classic comedy with particular focus on the work of Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers, Harry Secombe & Michael Bentine. You'll also hear us discuss the likes of Monty Python, Hancock, Blackadder, the Carry On films, Peter Cook, Steptoe & Son and countless other comedy figures & fixtures from the postwar era.Please follow on Bluesky @goonpod.bsky.social and Twitter @goonshowpod
