Eat The Pudding: A Simpsons Podcast 

Episode 8: “That’s The Kind Of Thing That Can Haunt Ya” 

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 eighth episode: “That’s The Kind Of Thing That Can Haunt Ya”. 

In our latest episode, Spotlight On Springfield looks at the complex character that is Moe the Bartender, a man with more dodgy back stories than Muddy Mae Suggins. Is there a heart of gold behind the gruff, unsmiling exterior and the grimy layers of prejudice? Our in-depth analysis suggests that there might be. 

We also answer listener questions about the “creative process” behind our opening music and whether the Simpsons writers were actually able to predict the future. And in a brand new semi-regular segment about guest stars in The Simpsons, we look at Liam Neeson’s turn in the Season 16 episode The Father, The Son and the Holy Guest.
