Brian is joined by friend of the show and comic book professional Matt Milla to discuss ALF's inexplicably long Marvel Comics run. The origins of Marvel's kiddie imprint Star Comics is discussed, as well as unsung Marvel legend Marie Severin; also, the artwork of Heathcliff is appreciated.
SEASON ONE FINALE! Brian welcomes Matt Provencal from The Great White North to talk the final ALF episode of season one! Trevor suffers from PTSD and has flashbacks to the Korean War while flying the Tanner family (and ALF) to their vacation as part of a questionable timeshare scam.
Brian is once again joined by David from The Swearwolves podcast to talk about the scariest ALF episode yet. ALF has unleashed a giant cockroach on the Tanners, Brian becomes alarmed when he discovers he is the same age as Trevor Ochmonek, and the TV classic Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan's Island is discussed.
Brian is joined by his cousin Mike to talk about Brian Tanner's "11th planet truther" science project, Libyan TVs, and the late Marcia Wallace.
Brian returns from a Covid-induced hiatus to talk with Matt about the interesting people you meet at the horse track, garage sales, and the hit film Jupiter Guys. Also: Is Al Campanis a racist? The answer might surprise you.
Brian and good brother Marcelo talk one of ALF's most Brian-heavy episodes, some rubbish about an asparagus musical. In this episode: an honest appraisal of Wrestlemania 3, ALF's mating call, and Mr. Trump's BIG, MASSIVE DUMPS
ALF loves a mystery. Who among us doesn't? A murderer's row of NBC sitcom talent (?) join ALF to preview the network's 1987 Saturday morning lineup. Join Brian and returning guest Matt in a rousing discussion about cartoons, Jackee, and KFC Chicken Littles.
Brian and his large adult son Jack discuss the "Rear Window" homage in which ALF believes he has witnessed a brutal murder while peeping on his neighbors. Also discussed: stogies, OJ's presence on Twitter, and Sunday comic strips about spousal battery.
Talking ALF makes its triumphant return! Kinda. Brian talks about where he's been, social media bans, and a bold new direction for the internet's most popular ALF-related podcast. The only, and therefore, the best.
Brian is joined by Alan from the Swearwolves podcast to talk about the unhealthy relationship between ALF and the Tanners. Willie seeks the help of a therapist to work on his relationship with ALF, which ends up being a passive aggressive delight.
1Brian is joined by Bret, the host of horror comedy podcast The Swearwolves, to discuss ALF's monstrous transformation. Every 75 years, ALF turns into a cat-eating obnoxious a-hole. Which is...yeah.
ALF wants to build a wall around his garden until he meets plucky young immigrant named Luis, who, we assume, is good people. Melmac is not sending their best, folks. Brian and his co-worker talk about Luis' suspect accent, ALF's place in Latin American culture, and El Principe Del Rap, con Will Smith.
Brian and Matt face man's greatest endurance test: watching an hour of ALF uninterrupted. The second half of ALF's season one clip show is peppered with flashbacks about Willie going to jail, ALF being horny for teenage Lynn, and the Hogan family.
So it's come to this. An ALF clip show. Brian and Matt relive fond memories of the previous 15 episodes as the laziest writers in television phone in a flash back episode halfway through season one.
In a very special and disgusting Valentine's Day episode, Grandma Dorothy gets a new love interest, played by character actor Paul Dooley. Brian and his cousin Mike talk about ALF's fake ability to speak to the dead, the Christmas specials and sexual conquests of Bob Hope, and the cultural impact of "Rappin' Ron and the DC Crew".
Kate's mom is sticking around, and ALF is turning the Tanners' misery into cash by writing scripts for one of television's worst soap operas. My son Jack returns to correct all of the blatant television production errors.
Kate's mom drops by and she's A.) played by comedy legend Anne Meara, and B.) even more annoying than ALF. Mr. Matt makes an unprecedented third appearance on the podcast to discuss bipolar moms, passive-aggressive family dynamics, and the fact that ALF has now most assuredly watched Kate and Willie have intercourse.
Brian sits down with his friend David from the new horror podcast The Swearwolves to talk ALF's very first Christmas episode! Trevor Ochmonek shows himself to be a grade-A pervert and The Mr. T/Emmanuel Lewis Christmas special, "A Christmas Dream" is unearthed. A huge thanks to Tubi TV (www.tubitv.com), ALF's new streaming home on the internet!
Brian's friend and co-worker Marcelo joins a rousing discussion of the Tanner family vacation episode! Willie finally snaps, ALF is nearly butchered by hillbillies, and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe is examined for its homoerotic subtext.
Mr. Matt returns to Talking ALF and talks to Brian about the time ALF bought Lynn a Ferrari to make Wille feel like a failure. ALSO: a requiem for Mrs. G and the new ALF reboot!
