“What am I?” The podcast trudges on through oblivion. Gone are the days of Jeff and Spencer’s asinine jokery, That Happens chronicles the slow deconstruction of the man Patton Oswalt once hailed as having “incredible comedic timing.” Ranting uninterrupted about daily political minutia or tiktok trends, Spencer occasionally breaks down and questions his life, podcast, and reality itself, as Kevin smiles, pained, trying to pull the show back onto the rails with a listener question or quick-fire rhetorical premise. What was is gone, and what’s left is bitter, battery acid-flavored reality. That Happens.

Spencer and Kevin dip back into the twisted finale of Neon Genesis Evangelion in this week's episode. After sampling some questionably flavored Mountain Dew (featuring notes of children's cough syrup and gummy worms), they unpack the deeply uncomfortable masterpiece that is The End of Evangelion.
In a fitting farewell to this franchise, Kevin experiences the full mental assault of Anno's uncompromising vision. Meanwhile, Spencer attempts to explain why a movie where the protagonist makes some questionable choices in the opening scene and does basically nothing else somehow became a cornerstone of anime history. They wrestle with the film's relentless commitment to making viewers uneasy, from Shinji's catatonic breakdown to that infamous final scene that nobody can quite agree on the meaning of.
Also, The Spleen may have sold some medbeds to the White House.
