You definitely know The Simpsons.

But you may not know Josh Weinstein — one of the show's original writers from the 1990s.

Remember when Homer met Billy Corgan? Or when Milhouse became Thrillhouse? How about the gay steel mill?

Well, Josh Weinstein actually wrote those episodes. He worked with comedic icons like Conan O'Brien to craft some of the most quoteable lines ever delivered by America's favourite cartoon family.

Today on the pod we sit down with Josh to go over everything from conspiracy theories, to working with celebrities like Glenn Close and The Smashing Pumpkins, to predicting the future, to the ubiquitous Halloween gags in Treehouse of Horror.

So pour a Duff (or maybe some Malk), forge your couch groove, and buckle in for some of the juiciest storytelling since Christopher Walken read Goodnight, Moon.
