  • 17.11 An Oscar For Just One Of You (Evans v Travers), or: Raising Dad (2001) 21&22 of 22
    May 26 2025

    Ever the consumate professionals, Emily and Andrew finish RAISING DAD even though Andy Kindler is nowhere to be found. And Grandpa's kind of a dip again. And there's a whole "let's get it on" juxtaposing with Saget and Kat Dennings (not together, this was WB not HBO). But it's a weird, confused finish.


    ALSO! We're on hiatus for a couple weeks but Emily's got us post-modern (ish) next season!

  • 17.10 A Range of Acting Ability (Where's Evan?), or: Raising Dad (2001) 19&20 of 22
    May 19 2025

    Somewhat unknowingly, Emily and Andrew reach the penultimate episode of this season of ONESIES (which does mean two whole more RAISING DADs to watch but still). This episode they discuss how good all the regular cast is compared to certain guest stars, plus more about teen dating hijinks, some questionable returns to running "subplots," and much more!

  • 17.9 High School Musical (So Many Compliments), or: Raising Dad (2001) 17&18 of 22
    May 13 2025

    Despite Emily and Andrew being able to make apt HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL references and--as one must--acknowledge the harmful socialization of young women through popular American media, they're rather upbeat this episode. Kindler's got a showcase, they've at least stopped weirdly sexualizing the teenagers--they've got lockers. It's something else. Plus, the second episode is... actually, sort of, a little, kind of, actually good. So our intrepid hosts like talking about the good things they enjoy. Who'd have thought.

  • 17.8: Disappointing Men (Honkytonk Women), or: Raising Dad (2001) 15&16 of 22
    May 6 2025

    Emily and Andrew contend with the unexpected... what happens when Grandpa (Jerry Adler) disappoints? Nothing good. Luckily, the second episode they discuss has... well, more disappointing men but at least it's the usual disappointing man on the program. Plus, wild tangents unless Emily cut them?

  • 17.7 Polynomial Needs (Hunks), or: Raising Dad (2001) 13&14 of 22
    Apr 28 2025

    It's another strangely just fine couple of episodes (with, you know, big asterisks) and Emily and Andrew find themselves... amused? Engaged? Something. Maybe they're just getting worn down by the show's charm. Ha!

  • 17.6 The Needs of the Many (Call Me Snapper), or: Raising Dad (2001) 11&12 of 22
    Apr 21 2025

    What's this... (relatively) strong episodes? In a row? Listen as Emily and Andrew discuss misread signals, sexual harrassment, emotional abuse, and bad Bob Saget acting. Also, some great Kindler! Finally--passing Bechdel with bras! And much more!!

  • 17.5 Handshakes Aside (Professionalism), or: Raising Dad (2001) 9 & 10 of 22
    Apr 14 2025

    Almost halfway through the season, Andrew finally finds a couple episodes he likes, though he and Emily do have some pressing editing decisions to address. Listen as they discuss teacher evaluations, drinking orange juice, being super-judgey, and many other interesting and insightful topics.

  • 17.4 Bad Dad Mad (Platitudes), or: Raising Dad (2001) 7 & 8 of 22
    Apr 7 2025

    Andrew has lots of feelings about this episode, specifically Robert Saget as that guy in your MFA personified (but, like, earlier eighties Reagan MFA bro, yuck), and Emily is nice enough to amuse some rants. They also get to talk about what continues to be good, and what continues to confuse. Andrew also broaches a cursed subject with Emily.
