Happy New Year Buttheads! This week comedian Eugene Mirman joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…why are even our best intentions twisted and used against us by our sadistic children? When Kurt asks his kids how their day at school was, they clamp up like a couple of Cold War era Soviet Spies under a hot interrogation light. Kurt’s getting NOTHING out of these kids, so he decides to come up with a little ploy to make Olive talk: A fake talk show on the car ride home from school! Fun, right? But fresh off giving himself a pat on the back, Kurt realizes that he created a Groundhog Day nightmare where he’s forced to put on a talk show in the car EVERY DAY with no signs of cancellation in sight. Eugene laments that when it comes to correcting his son’s behavior, his punishment threats are akin to a toy gun that spits out a “POW!” flag. It's a new year with the same old problems and our solutions, like they did in all the years past, will just make things worse.
