24 OCT 2025 · It's Marge vs MMA as she enters the Septagon to help rid Springfield of cage fighting. A fun Marge story that gives her the chance to kick some arse but still be a loving mother, even though we've already had stories with episodes like Itchy & Scratchy vs Marge and The Homer, The Fall.
Still, if you're an MMA, this is the episode for you!

8 OCT 2025 · Bart accidentally gets Mrs. K fired due an alcohol-related stunt, after she takes away the students' phones. Let's be honest, we're all love pro-Krabappel at this network and firmly believe that no child needs a phone, so safe to say that we were happy to see the back of her replacement Zachary Vaughn.
We also discuss parent-teacher interviews, losing our memories, the cut-throat nature of paying to send text messages, our love of Rodney Dangerfield and more. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/four-finger-discount-simpsons-podcast--5828977/support.

1 OCT 2025 · Comedian, writer, producer, actor and hot-bed-loving Nina Oyama joins us this week to review 'Scenes From The Class Struggle In Springfield', the first episode credited to a female writer/director combo and THE Marge episode of the "golden era".
We cover the struggles of not only Marge, but also the Simpsons family and members of the Springfield Country Club, as well as what makes Marge's transition into insanity so believable (and relatable), Homer discovering his newfound golfing skills, the lack of Bart and why it worked and more.
We also discuss Nina's earliest Simpsons memories, the struggles of sketch comedy in Australia, terrible first impressions, her favourite take-out, the benefits of online shopping and more.

30 SEP 2025 · Can you believe it? Despite what Bart told us back in 2017, The Simpsons DID in fact wait 20 years to release another movie, but who's complaining? Despite not knowing much at this stage, we break down the announcement and discuss what we think could be potential plot ideas, how it should differ from the original and more.
