Talking Simpsons - Talking Simpsons Will Be at PAX West 2019!

Episode Date: August 24, 2019

If you missed the chance to see one of our many live shows in San Francisco and Portland, the good news is we'll soon be headed to Seattle to do a panel at PAX West 2019 with special guest, the great comedian and professional comedy writer, Mike Drucker! When: Saturday, August 31st at 12:30pm Where: PAX West, The Sasquatch Theatre And here's the panel description, straight from the PAX website: Anyone who grew up in the ‘90s knows about the (mostly terrible) legacy of Simpsons video games, but what about the fictional games within the show itself? On this panel, join Talking Simpsons Podcast hosts Bob Mackey and Henry Gilbert, and comedy writer Mike Drucker (Nintendo, Marvel, Adam Ruins Everything, The Tonight Show, The Onion, and Full Frontal with Samantha Bee), as they give you a guided tour of the various ways The Simpsons has parodied the medium of video games. From Bonestorm to Escape from Grandma’s House to Robert Goulet Destroyer, we’ll walk our captive audience through the many, many games available exclusively in Springfield! That's not all—if you attend, you'll also have a chance to buy one of our amazing show posters drawn by the amazing Nina Matsumoto! BE THERE!

Ahoy, ahoy, everybody! This is Robert Goulet Destroyer Speedrunner Bob Mackie with a special Talking Simpsons announcement for you. Who else is here with me right now today? Larry the Looter High Score Holder Henry Gilberts. Excellent. And in case you didn't hear the news, we are going to be at this year's PAX West Convention doing our first Talking Simpsons panel there. Yes, that's right. In Seattle, Washington, Saturday, August 31st at 12.30 p.m. We'll be at the PAX West Convention. And the panel will be all about all of the fictional video games within the world of The Simpsons as we set up front. Things like Bonestorm, Lee Carvello's Putting Challenge,

Robert Goulet Destroyer, Escape from Death Row, and more. We'll be playing a ton of clips and commenting on them with the great Mike Drucker. Yes, the hilarious Mike Drucker, professional comedian, comedy writer, and our guest on the Simpsons Spinoff Showcase. He is going to be joining us to chat all about the surprisingly dense world of fake video games created for the Simpsons.

If I may play a little preview, here's what our conversation will sound like. Thirsting for a way to name the unnameable to express the inexpressible. Tell me more again that is happening at this year's pax west saturday august 31st at 12 30 p.m in the sasquatch theater get there early i have a feeling it's going to be standing room only we've got a lot of fans in seattle and they're all waiting for us to show up there i'm super excited i haven't been to pax in

like three years and never had a panel there so that that's really cool. And there's tons. I mean, Seattle's such a cool area, too. It's great to come back there up into the Washington area. Plus, I mean, actually, you know, if you're there, the Tacoma Art Museum has a Simpson exhibit right now that you should check out. But not on Saturday, August 31st at 1230 p.m. And certainly not in the Sasquatch Theater at PAX West. So shove that up your stocking!
