Eat The Pudding: A Simpsons Podcast
Episode 6: “The Gentle Caress Of A Summer Breeze”
Welcome to the Eat The Pudding fan podcast, where Michael and Ian explore the Simpsons universe in all its colourful and cromulent forms. This is the sixth episode: “The Gentle Caress Of A Summer Breeze”.
Back again after a brief, unscheduled absence, we dive into the new episode by exploring the complex character that is Martin Prince – a high-IQ nerd with a latent desire for mayhem and a dark, dark secret.
Michael’s monorail monomania comes very much to the fore later on in the show, in which the evergreen Marge Vs The Monorail episode is featured in both his season 4 pick and the Songs Of Springfield segment. We revisit our favourite moments, zone in on the many pop cultural references and uncover a hidden gem or two.
