Boy Meets Curl (S21E12)

About this episode

The episode features Marge and Homer competing in curling during the Winter Olympics while Lisa becomes obsessed with collecting Olympic pins.

It's The Simpsons vs The Winter Olympics as Marge and Homer set out to become gold medallists in curling. Meanwhile, Lisa gets addicted to collecting Olympic pins. An overall fun episode that seems to fall off a cliff at the end, but at least Homer is continuing his trend of not being a jerk. Speaking of jerks, boy was Agnes Skinner insufferable here. We also discuss Arnie's early-90s run of comedies with Ivan Reitman, the tragic story of the boy who used to play the trumpet at Geelong footy games, how much is "too much" to give to a busker and more.
