SUGAR RUSH!!! Pump up the techno music, grab your favorite high fructose corn syrup health bar (or several - they are good for you, after all) and tune in this week as Mark and Allen tackle "Sweetums", episode 15 of season 2. Let the soft acoustic guitar, the life vests, and Lance Armstrong carry you away ... I mean, this has to be good for you... right?
This week, Mark and Allen break down the Episode that gives us a greater understanding of one of Pawnee's oldest and best known institutions... Sweetums! Sweetums tries partnering with the Parks Dept to market NutriYum Bars to park visitors. Ideologies clash as Ron (consumer choice) squares off against Leslie (public safety). Convincing City Manager Paul Iaresco to hold a public forum as a CYA move, Leslie has one last shot at defeating the proposal. Meanwhile, the rest of the gang helps Tom move out of Wendy's house, which Tom hasn't prepared for at all, to everyone's chagrin. Additionally, during Tom's move, we see April's loyalties split between Andy and the throuple. Once again we tackle the hard hitting questions, such as... what is "turf and turf"? Is it acceptable for one to pour Wild Turkey on their cornflakes? Can a machine be killed? If so, can it come back to life and haunt people? How many boxes can Donna's "baby" hold? (Don't judge, it has a delicate suspension.) Tune in, podcast viewers, although you might want to sit down... you WILL be crashing soon. P.S. Please ignore the punk ass book jockeys. Many thanks to our often imitated but never duplicated sponsor, the one and only, Sweetums.
