#2 – Abbott Elementary

This week we’re going back to sitcom school with Quinta Brunson’s excellent new series Abbott Elementary, a family-friendly network comedy that somehow gave us permission to talk about OnlyFans and foot fetishes (thank you, Janelle James). It airs on ABC, we swear!
But first we’ll discuss how to stream the Winter Olympics (Peacock!), our secret desire for an all-Stephen-Root streaming service (Root Premium Plus!), and Amazon’s decision to deliver a price hike for Prime (are there free returns for our feelings?). Oh, there’s also a story about Rudy Giuliani and The Masked Singer in there somewhere, but we’re pretty sure we hallucinated the whole thing (please, please let it be a hallucination).
And at the end of the episode Dianne shares her love of Somebody Somewhere while Chris ponders his place in the ever-expanding Danny McBride-verse as he sings the praises of The Righteous Gemstones. It’s a jam-packed hour of streaming from your favorite 5-star TV podcast! (We’re absolutely going to milk that while it’s technically true.)
