Erin and Leer take on the pilot of How I Met Your Mother in the first episode of The Re-Return podcast. In this episode, learn why the beginning gives away HIMYM's controversial ending — which we love, btw — why Friends matters, what's up with Barney, and get to the root of how all the pieces fit together. 

Ep. 1 — How I Met Your Mother's pilot tells you the ending

Erin and Leer tackle our first glimpse of stalker Ted, law school Marshall, Lily trying to get some, and Robin's unrealistic career goals. Mix in a Brooklyn Nine-Nine reference and Barney hooking up on the roof and you've got Purple Giraffe!

Ep 2. - Ted's the most casual stalker ever!

Ted and Barney have a legendary night with Homeland Security while Marshall drives in circles and Lily and Robin check out the meat market at McLarens. Erin and Leer recount their best last minute trips and hatred of Ohio in this week's ReReturn!

Ep 3. — A lifetime supply of condoms awaits you at baggage claim

Ted finds an old shirt in his closet and decides to ruin a life while Robin continues to be a questionable reporter with Barney's encouragement. No amount of comparisons with Friends can make Ted look any less awful than he does in this episode. Even Ross never did this to someone.

Ep 4. - Not a great shirt, not a great reporter, and Ted's worst crime.

We're Erin and Leer, two How I Met Your Mother superfans who have a podcast about their favorite show. We're running the series — all nine seasons — and chatting about each episode. Get your dueling swords off the wall, because here be spoilers. Lots of them. And Erin and Leer will fight you if you complain about it.
