It’s clear to us: The latest season of Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butt-head is a welcome addition to the pantheon of the series. In this episode, we take a deep look at the final 12 episodes of the latest season, including Beavis’ ability to make anything dirty, the reappearance of a classic series character, and an episode that might be the crown jewel of the reboot. (Hint: It involves Beavis and Butt-head in a courtroom, which is always fuel for classic chicanery.) Join the conversation! Visit tpforyourearholes.com to contact us.

In looking at the first 12 episodes of Season 3 of the newest Beavis and Butt-head reboot, we explore the peaks (many) and the valleys (few), the funniest moments, the best one-liners and THE episode that might be the best one to show a fan of the show from the ’90s to get them interested in the new stuff. Oh, and we speculate on what Merriam-Webster’s 2026 “Word of the Year” should be, inspired by Beavis.Join the conversation! Visit tpforyourearholes.com to contact us.

The Beavis and Butt-head multiverse came to fruition in “Beavis and Butt-head Do the Universe,” the second of the two movies featuring our favorite pair of teenage metalheads. We look back at our expectations for a movie that did not make its way to theaters. Moreover, we explore whether “Do the Universe” lived up to those expectations, qualified or not – and how long it might be before we watch this movie again. Join the conversation!

Nearly 30 years after its release, we take a look back at “Beavis and Butt-head Do America,” the movie that sent our dumbass duo to the big screen. We look at what the movie meant to us when it was released in 1996, how the movie’s takeaways have changed for us over time, and why repeated watching is good for the circadian rhythms. And we talk about Meeteetse. A lot.Join the conversation! Visit tpforyourearholes.com to contact us. Find us on Instagram, Bluesky, YouTube and Facebook @tpforyourearholes.
Sometimes, NOT seeing something is funnier than seeing something. Those choices in Beavis and Butt-head are what we’re exploring in this episode as we speculate about, and celebrate, the unknown! We are looking out for the things we’ve never seen: Buzzcut’s after-school shenanigans, the boys’ Sunday school experiences, Todd’s eau de toilette and the status of Beavis’ mom’s reproductive organs. Yeah, we went there.Join the conversation! Visit tpforyourearholes.com to contact us. Find us on Instagram, Bluesky, YouTube and Facebook @tpforyourearholes.
The original run of Beavis and Butt-head brought us five different Christmas-themed “episodes,” but make no mistake – these episodes aren’t just for watching in December! Our conversation meanders from our appreciation for “It’s a Wonderful Life” to how we missed the “Max Headroom” craze to the worst-best Christmas joke ever told to… well, you’ll just have to listen to hear the rest.

Some of our favorites got zero attention in our first episode on our favorite side characters, so here we are, back again with some of our favorite people who fill out the Highland social scene. From characters who had whole episodes based around their shenanigans to characters whose names are never even mentioned in the series, our second look at our favorite recurring characters in the series also touches on Winger, juvenile-hall romance and prank calls gone wrong.Join the conversation!

The media landscape is rapidly changing, seemingly day to day. What does that mean for the future of Beavis and Butt-head? Well… Hosts Charlynn and Patrick are fairly pessimistic about the continuation of the show, and it has NOTHING to do with how good the show is and EVERYTHING to do with forces beyond the control of the show’s creators and producers.

The entire “Beavis and Butt-head” catalog is not available anywhere – well, legally at least. And that’s sad. In this episode, we discuss why we need the complete series, or at least as complete as can be made, to be available to buy. And we directly appeal to series creator Mike Judge for his influence to make it happen. Join the conversation! Visit tpforyourearholes.com to contact us.

The Beavis and Butt-head music video reactions were a staple of the show, especially in its early run. However, the Highland duo didn’t have the chance to react to a ton of videos that are close to our hearts, especially videos from the 1998-2010 era. We explore which videos we would have loved to have seen Beavis and Butt-head react to, with a focus mostly on that era but with a couple nods to some missed opportunities, both in the 1990s and now.

Everything from “Sit your ass down, Lars!” to “Check out the nads on that pig!” has come from one area of Beavis and Butt-head – the music video reactions. We each compiled a list of our 10 favorites (and then kept them secret from each other until the recording of this episode) and try to figure out what makes a reaction timeless, memorable and quotable. Oh, and there’s some stuff about falling in love in this episode, too. Thanks, Pantera… now get out there and mow that lawn!A YouTube playlist with most of the Beavis and Butt-head music video reactions from the original run: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ikUeVnosiI&list=PLa-ZN2F3Pxeoh1RW460KIxD4joFdppD48 Is this football? https://isthisfootball.blogspot.com/ Join the conversation!

Many of us have milestones we hit in our early adulthood: career, stability, residence, love. Did Beavis or Butt-head achieve any of those? Your hosts Char and Patrick explore how the duo might have lived during the only span of time that the show has avoided. We will also spend more time than necessary trying to answer maybe the most important question we can ask: Did Beavis and Butt-head ever score?Join the conversation!

Let’s be honest – most of the time, we’re laughing AT Beavis and Butt-head for the situations in which they find themselves. However, sometimes an episode brings out something in us (Empathy? Pity? Fear?) where we actually end up feeling bad for the boys. From failed love to painful situations to existential crises, Beavis and Butt-head have had their fair share of such experiences. We break down the ones that made us feel the worst – well, as bad as you can feel for two animated dumbasses. Join the conversation! Visit tpforyourearholes.com to contact us.

Beavis isn’t always an idiot, and Butt-head isn’t always a sociopath. Sometimes, we get to catch them doing good things. Usually by accident, but occasionally on purpose, the dumbass duo has given us some memorable moments when they were actually contributing to humanity! We break down our favorite such moments, including Beavis and Butt-head showing care for animals, helping someone through their worst moments, creating moving works of art, and unironically saving the world.Join the conversation!

It’s not opinion, it’s fact: The early episodes of Beavis and Butt-head are awful. We have the data to prove it… and the chance to dive deep and explore why the first three seasons of this show do not stand the test of time. From the expectations of animation (sadly, we bring up “My Pet Monster”) to the challenge of teaching a whole staff of writers and animators your vision (and, well, figuring out what that vision is), we try to explore why it took Beavis and Butt-head 60 episodes to find its footing.Check out Patrick's infographic showing IMDb ratings by season: https://tpforyourearholes.com/2025/10/09/episode-11-beavis-and-butt-heads-early-reviews-tp-for-your-earholes-a-beavis-and-butt-head-podcast/Bonuses: The IMDB episode ratings: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105950/episodes/?topRated=DESC&ref_=ttepGive Blood, one scene of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCOHqq3WZIIMy Pet Monster at the Fair: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIAAHS8uoLcJoin the conversation!

When misfits Beavis and Butt-head were first introduced to the world – first via Frog Baseball as part of the “Extra Sick and Twisted” compilation, later by the show’s premier on “Liquid Television” and then the first bits of the standalone series – critics did NOT know what to make of them. Some got it right; some were way, way off. With 30-plus years of retrospect, we take a look at those early critiques, giving praise to those who could see the good things coming and giving hell to those who couldn’t.Bonus: Mike Grimshaw’s “Quiet Please,” preserved for posterity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWUTN7G3RJ0Join the conversation!

Some people come into our lives forever; others are there for just a few minutes. This episode is a tribute to the latter – people who only appeared once in the world of Beavis and Butt-head. From Rabid Ron to Gus Baker to (several) characters who don’t even get a name, we dive into our favorite folks who brightened Beavis and Butt-head’s world for a moment and then disappeared forever.Big thanks to the Beavis and Butt-head wiki: https://beavisandbutthead.fandom.com/wiki/Beavis_and_Butt-Head_Wiki Join the conversation!

The world of Beavis and Butt-head stretches well beyond the two eponymous main characters. Who else in Highland makes it the special place we know and love? This episode is dedicated to them – some of our favorite side characters in the show. Daria, Buzzcut, Tom Anderson… and more! We’ll start the list of people who round out Highland, and we’ll count on you to help us finish it! (And we’ll expose Char’s biggest unknown bit of Beavis and Butt-Head trivia.)Join the conversation!

Despite his limited screen time, Beavis’ alter ego Cornholio has become a mainstay in not only Beavis and Butt-head but in pop culture in general. In this episode, we explore the origins of Cornholio, walk through why this character rose to such a level of prominence, and try to decipher why Cornholio’s influence continues to this day.Join the conversation!
