Binged this podcast to get me through a rough week and here’s hoping for more 40% ❤

[@miragk]

every monday desperately hoping you post a new episode i miss them so much

[@valerieregina444]

jinkx laughing so hard she has to get up and run around the room is something i relate to all too well

[@bigtasty23]

MAN

[@raydragerns3657]

Jinkx Jinkx Jinkx...there's just something about ya.

[@mallbratgirl_3005]

Jinkx I can't wait to see you on Doctor Who! It's kind of ridiculous how many of my favourite niches you pop up in, Chicago is my favourite film/musical of all time and I love Doctor Who and Futurama. Just saw you and Dela at the London Palladium the other week and it was probably the funniest thing I've ever seen. Me and my girlfriend have been saying 'Little mug' randomly to each other since and it's now become my new nickname for her lol

[@abbierhoad]

Same! I'm looking so forward to meeting her character

[@JB-nj7nq]

Awh thanks for not making us wait a week ❤😂

[@katrose5953]

[@onlyinsomniac]

I'M SORRY. JINKX MONSOON AND NICK HAVE A FUTURAMA RECAP PODCAST AND I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT? Genuinely the perfect crossover.

[@sad_kana6547]

Omg, Jinkx such a Venus, seriously

Nibler is totally a Clark Kent. Huckleberry Finn will always be the book we read in 8th grade (when I was also the only melanated individual in class). Our teacher had us read it aloud around the room, and several students took that opportunity to use the hard 'N' in my direction. Good times! (This was in the mid 90's)

[@valerieregina444]

ugh i remember reading huckleberry finn in my 10th grade english class and our (white) teacher had a whole lecture about the n word basically trying to convince us that it was okay to say it in context of the class. nobody was happy with her about that.

[@mjNharv]

I miss watching you two bicker we need more eps! Pretty please ❤

[@queentopia9225]

Time doesn't exist to me between shows, like a doll placed in a cupboard. Love Futurama, love y'all! ❤ #dramaticcomment

[@JB-nj7nq]

Is it really that dramatic? 😂

[@seevanhawkins4591]

Fry, you had that brain thing!
I already did!

[@therealhaydend]

Jinkx Monsoon is one of the most entertaining people I know of, but this was hard to listen to. Remember the time those queens underestimated Jinkx's choice of Little Edie for the Snatch Game? They didn't know who she was, and they were doing their whole "mean girls" thing and making fun of Jinkx - but I knew it was going to be amazingly funny. That's how I felt listening to this podcast make fun of books and writers I have found to be incredibly inspirational and moving. It's sad when people don't find reading to be a worthwhile endeavor - but it's even sadder when they laugh about things they don't understand.

[@MadamRoastBeefYT]

We all missed a major layered joke here:
"The Bonfire of the Vanities is a 1987 novel by Tom Wolfe. The story is a drama about ambition, racism, social class, politics, and greed in 1980s New York City, and centers on three main characters: WASP bond trader Sherman McCoy, Jewish assistant district attorney Larry Kramer, and British expatriate journalist Peter Fallow. The novel was originally conceived as a serial in the style of Charles Dickens' writings: it ran in 27 installments in Rolling Stone starting in 1984. Wolfe heavily revised it before it was published in book form. The novel was a bestseller and a phenomenal success, even in comparison with Wolfe's other books. It has often been called the quintessential novel of the 1980s, and in 1990 was adapted into a critically maligned film of the same name by Brian De Palma." - Wikipedia 🙈

[@JillFriedman]

Don Martin was an illustrator for MAD Magazine! No idea what that would have to do with the episode, but it's not a surprise the Futurama writers would name something after him. He died on January 6th, 2000, so they probably were writing this episode around the same time.

[@lindsaysorensen]

The title Bonfire of the Vanities is a reference to 15th century when the church burned items like mirrors, books, art, etc things that they thought would induce people into sin. The book itself was about 1980s greed.

[@jinkxfoehn]

[@vcheekv]

They're remaking Mean Girls, that's probably why there's a weird commercial.

[@WhoseyWho]
