I heartily endorse this event or product. Ahoi, hoi everybody, welcome to Talking Simpsons, the podcast that's first in

gentlemanly club life. I'm your host Hideout Book author Bob Mackie and this is our chronological exploration of the Simpsons who was here with me today

I'm Henry Gilbert and I love sucking down the cider

And who is who is on the line? I'm there. Hey and I got too many grandmas

Who doesn't and this episode today is Burns baby Burns

It doesn't take a nuclear scientist to pronounce foliage.

Today's episode aired on November 17th, 1996,

and as always, Henry will tell us what happened

on this mythical day in real world history.

Oh my God! Oh boy, Bobby, a 2.5 million year old fossil of a human ancestor is found in Ethiopia.

Everybody got up to slam down at Space Jam debuting number one in the theaters and

Laura Croft goes on her first adventure as Tomb Raider hits the PlayStation and Saturn in

North America.

The first annual Space Jam.

What a blessed day.

We finally got to see Tunes Dunkin.

That commercial finally turned into a full motion.

This was the week of Tunes and Tunes.

Yes, Tunes.

But yeah, Tomb Raider is still huge.

It's gone through some lows, but now it's sort of at a high point since the 2013 reboot I mean nobody cared about that recent movie

And no one should have cared about it, but I think the games are still pretty good. Yeah, you know that movie should have starred Daisy Ridley and I feel like since they couldn't get here they should have just not done it.
