Steve Would Never

Which Junkie sat at the emo kids’ table in high school? Which one ate with the teachers? And which one got to skip class to go to Red Sox games? This episode reveals all. The Junkies give a shout out to the fans who are making us Big in Egypt (hey!), and propose their own musical version of The Breakfast Club. And an OnlyFans swimsuit edition. Nicole (and her dad) are digging Law and Order: Organized Crime and pretty much everyone is a fan of Stabler’s perfect peach. Alex drops the first (and maybe last) of his Haiku Movie Reviews. Sorry, Thunder Force; you’re getting dissed in 5-7-5. Shauna and Hayley take a spoilery look at Falcon and the Winter Soldier and agree that Sam needs to be the next Captain America, Bucky needs to get laid, and that Steve Rogers would never, ever do that.

Alex wonders what’s up with the Clockwork Orange Droogs in the new Space Jam trailer (but Pepe Le Pew is too much?) Then the gang debates what constitutes Dad Rock and proposes branching off to launch the “Now That’s What I Call a Dad Podcast” complete with griping about what really grinds our gears.
