"Grease Me Up, Woman!"

About this episode

Eat The Pudding: A Simpsons Podcast 


Episode 7: “Grease Me Up, Woman!” 


Welcome to the Eat The Pudding fan podcast, where Michael and Ian explore the Simpsons universe in all its colourful and cromulent forms. This is the seventh episode: “Grease Me Up, Woman”. 


Lots of listener questions and spin-off discussions in this episode, which is just the way we like it! For instance, should The Simpsons have called it a day around Season 15? Are there any other shows that kept the bar high for over a decade? And why is it next to impossible to buy a copy of Season 18 on DVD without taking out a second mortgage? 


This time around, our Spotlight On Springfield shines a sympathetic light on the perennially underappreciated Groundskeeper Willie, who is part of the fabric of Springfield yet rarely gets his due. How do Scottish people feel about him? Why is he such a perfect fit for so many Treehouse Of Horror segments? And why does this episode description consist almost entirely of rhetorical questions?
