049 - We Always Wanted to Write for The Simpsons

Chris and Mackenzie are heading back to Springfield! They deconstruct two episodes of The Simpsons in which America’s favorite family gets into some nasty trouble on their travels. What makes a good “The Simpsons are going to…” episode? How many plots are in a successful episode? How much trouble does Lisa cause? What is the punishment for killing an alligator in Florida? What do zombies and alligators have in common? How can John August help us make an episode of The Simpsons better?
