Bring forth the tissues, the tubs of ice cream, and the plasma rifles. Okay, maybe not that last one. But prepare thyselves for a very sad episode all about....sad episodes. For years, the cartoon show Futurama has refused to die and has delighted, amused, and devastated us all with its hilarious and soul-touching content. And four of those episodes that address the latter sentiment are here to be discussed, and they all happen to be about show protagonist, general slacker, and man-out-of-time Philip J. Fry - and more specifically, his family. From a sentimental father-son moment to an adorable hairy stray, these were the episodes that tugged the heartstrings. Tissues! Ice cream! Ray guns! You never know what you'll need. Better bring them all.

WARNING: this episode was recorded before the terrible events of July 4th, 2025, wherein a devastating flashflood swept across Central Texas and has left many, including children at a summer camp, missing or dead. Our deepest sympathies to all those affected by this tragedy, and our simple plea to not be offended as we make light of camping and rainy camping trips - as stated before, we recorded this before the 4th.

This episode you're about to hear is the result of Your Friend Frosty and your bartender Mike Whiskey's adventures in camping, nature, and a particular creepy pasta from a loyal listener. Given Your Friend Frosty's feelings on nature in particular, you can see where this is going. However, it's a full and fun episode: risque Boy Scout performers! Missing animals! Killer bees! And that's just the first hour. Which isn't saying much, as this episode is less than an hour, but still - pile on the bug spray and carry a flashlight. It's the woods, and things get weird out here...

So, yeah, Happy 4th of July and all that. While it's the USA's birthday, your podcast hosts are celebrating a unique anniversary, one thirty years in the making. And just like on the 4th of July when dogs all run and hide under blankets from fireworks, so does Your Friend Frosty from the terror that is 1995's film blockbuster Jumanji. Which, according to Frosty, is actually a horror movie. What's that? A challenger has entered the arena? Your bartender, Mike Whiskey, begs to differ and offer up the claim that Jumanji is not a horror movie. Giant spiders, man-eating plants, and rampaging animals, plus a homicidal weirdo with a gun - how is this not a horror movie? Join in the debate, and head for New Hampshire, we're having a fun run. That'll make more sense when the episode is over.
