I loved this conversation so much!!!!! Full disclosure, we kept thinking of things to talk about, so enjoy our many "endings" that turned into other stories LOL Brian Stack played Ted in Article Two, and the jeweler when Ann and Chris go to the jewelery store, BUT he was a writer on Conan for 18 years, he currently writes for Stephen Colbert and I talked his ear off about it all! We discuss his beginnings in Second City in Chicago, how he knew Amy Poehler, and advice for young sketch pe...
We feel better off, and that is IMPORTANT OKAY!? And while I would like to burn the Recall Knope float to the ground, we are going to review this episode anyway 😂😂 And in the words of Ben, the more you accomplish, the more heat you get. Leslie faces counterpoints even though she has made the town healthier, Tom faces an obstacle with Rent-A-Swag and someone is pregnant?!?!?! What a way to end a season!!!! We love that all the guest stars are returning, and how cool to have a myste...
It's putt putt time! And why don't you melt the cheese!? Leslie and Ron fight to get what they think is best for the community, Andy re-discovers Mouse Rat music is his passion and Ann and Tom have a Mona Lisa meltdown!

Omg it's Ted Party day!!!!!!! aka Star Wars/Patton Oswalt Day! Today, we get some behind-scenes on removing some Pawnee charter rules, Chris and Ron debate which motivation tactic is better, and Ann and Ben join forces to figure out Leslie's incessant anniversary gifts. Kudos to Leslie for moving Pawnee forward and bringing our town into the future while finding a compromise that suits its citizens best. :) Today, we also get a voice memo from my past improv teacher at iO West, Jaime Moyer! S...
Starting this episode with our Partridge park ranger, Clark Freeman! Thank you so much for talking about your original audition (not a park ranger!), getting the call the NIGHT BEFORE and how sweet Adam Scott is! Plus, keep an eye out for his project!

We're headed to Partridge, people! Ben on painkillers is the absolute best, Jamm gets Jammed, and Chris and Ann are... not doing great compatibility-wise. We have a lot to discuss and Madi is back! We get to hear an awesome deleted scene from Ben's doctor and discuss at length the forced feeling of Chris and Ann, which is a bummer.

HAPPY GALENTINES! Let's celebrate by reviewing a classic Parks episode! New guests coming in hot! (Jenny Slate/Mona Lisa omg!!!) Parks and business mix with a quintessential Ron and Leslie moment!

PS - we love Mara Marini's episode (Aka THE Brandi Maxxxx), check it out here! She is a queen among queens! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/our-co...
Oh, the awkwardness. April asks Chris to be a sperm donor and I go on a tangent about how it didn't have to be this way. Leslie gets her jokes stolen and Donna saves the day with her magical prowess by finding the thief! (it wasn't Jerry) Plus, there's a super funny gag reel and an amazing voice memo from Morgan Parker Brown who plays Charles (the server/Sweetums assistant) with INCREDIBLE details! Oh and also Nick Offerman directs for the first time!!!!! Thank you Morgan and please be sure t...

The episode that started it all! (Or at least the name of our show... "I guess we're Park Pals" *wink*) But honestly, I think our name comes from the true amazing park pals we get to come on this show and share their stories. Words can't really describe how much it means to me that actors and crew take time out of their day to contribute to our podcast and give us such incredible stories. This Pawnee community is so wonderful and something that I love to shed light on. <3 On that note, tod...
