Last week, it seemed like things couldn't get any more heightened. But now Sorkin has added in some kidnapping, ransom, and some much needed flashbacks to the weeks following 9/11. It is truly a recipe for comedy. Joining Dan and Tim for the intro to the K&R trilogy is ClickHole contributor and all around good guy Gabriel Laks. Watch as Danny and Jordan get engaged! The sexual harassment lawyer reveals her black ops connections! And, finally, Luke Scott gets to pitch his 100% Islamophobia sketch show!

018 - Breaking News (feat. Megan Meadows)

With the end in sight, Aaron Sorkin decides to pull out all the stops and literally cram every plot line from every TV show ever into this very cramped Sunset Strip Studio. This week, comedy writer, fellow podcaster, and Tim's co-worker Megan Meadows joins us to discuss "Breaking News," the set up for the penultimate four-parter that will finally end this charade. The ratings are down! Matt gets confronted about his drugs but he's already quit sort of! And, look out Lil' Nate, something is afoot in Afghanistan!

020 - K&R, Part 2 (feat. Matt Sampson)

In a cynical attempt to boost their own ratings, Tim and Dan kidnap Tim's younger brother Matt and force him against his will to watch a late-season episode of Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip. Luckily (or unluckily) he managed to get stuck with an episode where not much happens. Sorkin is really treading water on this one until NBC pulls the proverbial plug. Flashback Matt can't help himself with the political humor! Jordan's medical problems prevent her from appearing in this episode! And Simon finally reveals himself to be this show's true villain!
