137: Going All In On The Family With This Is Us

Published: Dec. 6, 2016, midnight

Allison Lowe Huff is back to talk about This Is Us, the lovably imperfect tearjerker that\'s occupying the Friday Night Lights lane in our hearts. We bid farewell to The Killing Season, wondered how Noel Crane fit into a true-crime classic, and celebrated a Tiny Twitter Triumph involving poo before going around the dial with Gilmore Girls, Below Deck, Search Party, and Westworld. Listener Matthew submitted a rageful Nonac candidate, the HIMYM finale, and we declared satire a winner and sex a loser (for Showtime) before juggling a hilarious Hot Potato Game Time. This is EHG -- an all-new one. Listen now!
