Today, we're thrilled to welcome Pat Finn back to Orson, Indiana! You know him as Bill Norwood, but Neil Flynn knows him as his buddy from Chicago. Pat helps us break down episode 211, "Taking Back the House," and he's a filled with great stories - from meeting Neil on a baseball diamond, to crossing paths at his audition, to his favorite episode (which, of course, features Neil). Plus we listen to a voicemail from someone whose life spookily mirrors every aspect of Sue Heck's!

It's the last Wednesday of the month, which means we're jumping ahead! Today's episode is all about competition: spelling bees, hands on a hard body, and beer pong to win back a desk. Of course we're talking about episode 522, "Heck on a Hard Body." We're joined by Josh Brener (Silicon Valley, The Last of Us) as he helps us recap the episode and acts out an entire deleted story line (3 scenes!) that got cut from the episode involving Dr. Goodwin (Jack McBrayer) and Dr. Fulton (Dave Foley).
