Welcome to another week of the podcast. Listeners beware, we hate pretty hard on the traditional sitcom setup. We also spend a good chunk of time discussing the future of television delivery, and how streaming services are changing how we watch TV. And we answer the age-old question: are there good lies?  If you enjoy listening, please give us a rating on iTunes! Special thanks to Alec Koukol for the intro music.

Teachers Talking TV Season 3 The Good Place Season 1 Episode 7

Programming note: when we recorded this episode, NBC had slated "The Good Place" season two to begin in January and we talk about it in this episode. They've since changed that plan, and it begins Wednesday Sept. 20. Check local listings! 

We have the giggles more than once this episode, but we are beyond the halfway point of this season so a little bit of punchiness is to be expected. We dissect The Good Place Season 1, Episode 8, “Most Improved Player” and the arrival of Demon Trevor.  Toward the end, we get a little theological, but considering this is a show about the afterlife, can you blame us?  Special thanks to Alec Koukol for the intro music.

A bonus podcast for you this week to celebrate the debut of Season 2 of “The Good Place!” In this week’s episode, we revisit “Twin Peaks” at Rowse’s request, if you can believe that. Please excuse this week’s choppy edits—Rowse was under the weather and edited out all the coughs for an improved listening experience. We all enjoy discussing the demons in Episode 9 of “The Good Place.” We hope you enjoy listening to it. If you did, leave us a review on iTunes! Special thanks to Alec Koukol for the intro music.

Teachers Talking TV Season 3 The Good Place Season 1, Episode 10

We are nearing the end of our journey with Season 1 of “The Good Place” and this week, we talk all things Episode 11: “What’s My Motivation?” This week’s warning: we get a little deep about some of the theology of the show and the age-old debate between works and grace. But never fear: there's also a decent helping of shenanigans and tomfoolery. Special thanks to Alec Koukol for the intro music.

Teachers Talking TV Season 3: The Good Place Season 1, Episode 11

We can’t find a single weakness with “The Good Place” Season 1, Episode 12, and it’s evident as this episode of our podcast is longer than the actual television show. Listen to find out what we thought about Mindy St. Clair and her role in the afterlife. Special thanks to Alec Koukol for the intro music.  Enjoy? Rate us on iTunes!
