The Shinning with Allie Goertz
Episode 171, Mar 29, 2023, 08:00 AM
Musician, podcaster, and former MAD Magazine editor Allie Goertz joins Vespe and Wampler to talk about The Simpsons' Shining parody as well as her upcoming album of NIN covers. Wampler in particular has a lot to say on this subject.
Goertz began her musical career under the now unfortunate name of "Cossbysweater" and has since done work with Mad Magazine, Mystery Science Theater 3000 and even ran her own Simpsons podcast with Julia Prescott called Everything's Coming Up Simpsons, so naturally she's a perfect fit for this particular episode.
The day has finally come for The Kingcast to take a look at the infamous Simpsons parody of The Shining from 1994's Treehouse of Horror episode. The Shinning packs so many jokes and spot on references into around 7 minutes that we were able to fill nearly 2 hours talking about it!
