It turns out that both David and Don are really lousy at relationships but great with relationship advice. Also, so is Yakov Smirnoff.

What infuriates Himmel? Jewel selection, stereotypes, handjobs at the symphony? Hall just doesn’t seem to get all that angry about anything. What’s the deal (asked in the most 1980’s stand up manner)?

Can David go work on a cruise ship? Why would he want to? What the fuck is all of this shit about cruise ships? And how does one figuratively blow a load in your pants?

Don is making straight A’s in life and—gasp—met a woman whose presence is making him re-think his strategy.

In a preview for BUGHOUSE!, Don tasks David with his repeated use of the ’systemic’ when describing localized events.

D&D decide to watch the televised debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump and provide in-the-moment commentary. Totally different, totally fun.

Don is closing the summer of house management; David is dealing with his miserable life. How do the chmps refuel themselves in the meantime?

In the ever present search for income, both apes have a short list of jobs they’d never take regardless of the compensation package.

It was the week of the DNC in Chicago and the chimps have unique perspectives. So does Himmel’s youngest son. That kid has LOTS of opinions.

Both Apes are looking for work and break it down for themselves.

Don aplogizes for biffing last week’s episode but had his first post-divorce date so the chimps unpack the whole concept of that bizarre activity.

In a cultural landscape where the burning question has been “What is a woman?” for a decade, Don counters with the unspoken question.

Lots of stuff in here—rhetoric creating an intentional backlash, gentle parenting, umbrellas in the park (Don admits he was wrong so mark the episode), and more! Hunker down on the toilet and enjoy…

We start with the ‘hawk tuah’ girl and gradually wind around to the use of photography to fool us, face blindness, ‘kidney’ friends, and the realization that David’s sons are to be called ‘master.’

David has Harry on his mind (shock!) and Don has thoughts. Also, there is a question of personal branding for both monkeys.

The Himmel crew head off to vacation at the Lake of the Ozarks. David recorded some of it for your edification. Hall slept in.

The Literate Apes consider whether they are dyed in the wool Satanists and Hall pulls hard on the thread of perpetual therapy as a solution to any sort of real world problems.

Hall is working with a lot of Chicago police in his job in the park and has a few observations. Himmel is not as anti-cop as he appears.

The chimps are starting to feel the march of time in their lower backs and ankles and sit in Himmel’s kitchen and bitch about it.

Parents often shower their love upon us by buying us lawn mowers and droids. These are the tales of parenting through commerce.
