Biscuits With the Boss - First Half Jul 21, 2021

Show notes

This is a bonus miniseries, our regular Office episodes will still come out this week.

Welcome to the 2nd episode of Biscuits with the Boss - a miniseries about Ted Lasso ahead of it's season 2 release on July 23rd.

“Do you believe in ghosts, Ted?”

“I do. But more importantly, I think they need to believe in themselves, you know?"

Our ‘First Half’ episode looks at the first half of Ted Lasso season 1, spanning from ‘Pilot’ to ‘Tan Lines’. We start with Sean's first impressions watching the show for the first time and pick up the discussion from there, talking about how Rebecca stands out as such an interesting character, the silent genius of Coach Beard, whether the show feels more British or American, and the unique persona of Trent Crimm (“Trent Crimm, The Independent”). We have to hustle to beat our 45 minute time limit before we go back to binge watching for the second half.

We talk about how the show moves on after Michael’s departure, how they give more attention to the ensemble, and the early impact of Robert California.

118: Michael's Movies Jul 08, 2021

Show notes

"Yeah, I shot a bunch of footage around the office, edited it together on my Mac. I was thinking of entering it into some festivals. Probably won’t. You know, not what this is about."

What happens when you put Michael Scott's creativity, imagination, and delusion behind a camera? Find this week as we discuss Michael’s movies! We go through all of the films he creates and screens throughout the series, including productions from both Diversity Tomorrow and Great Scott. We talk about how they reveal his character, how they emulate popular films or videos from that time, and how the rest of the staff responds as his captive audience.

Our conference room segment can be described as ‘roasted by memes’, as we talk about an Onion headline and another meme about podcast hosts that give us that ‘boom, roasted’ feeling. And of course we close out the show with another round of trivia.

This week we check the inbox and respond to some listener voicemails! We cover a wide range of questions, including how Office staffers would be on Zoom calls, why Charles Minor didn’t like Jim, why we never saw Michael’s family, what if there were multiple Gabes, and a whole lot more.

“I would like to invite all of you to come away with me on a journey. [nips mylar ribbon with hedge clippers, it won’t cut, he tears it down] Welcome to the Michael Scott Paper Company!"

This week we return to the topic from our very first episode, an arc that shook up The Office and inspired the name of our podcast, the Michael Scott Paper Company. We go through how this run of episodes stands out from the rest of the series, how it challenges major characters like Michael, Pam, Dwight, and Jim, and how the meatball parm is Alfredo’s worst sandwich. And we also cover all of the rundowns, parking lot soccer games, and C-shaped bagels that make up this arc. In the conference room we talk about some listener feedback on our Roy episode and discuss the announcement of a new workplace comedy from Mindy Kaling. And then of course we close with another trivia challenge.

113: The Surplus May 27, 2021

Show notes

"What did we learn this week? Well, one, thanks to me, my team is much, much faster at coming to decisions than I thought they would be. Number two, never buy a fur coat with a credit card until you absolutely have the money to pay for it. And three, you should know that some people think it’s cool to throw buckets of fake blood on you as you are walking out of Burlington Coat Factory."

This week’s episode is dedicated to ’The Surplus’ from Season 5! We talk about Michael’s struggle to please everyone while choosing between a new copier or new chairs, along with Dwight, Angela, and Andy touring Schrute Farms as a wedding venue. Of course we highlight all of the butter sculptures, tuna sandwich kisses, and trips to Burlington Coat Factory that make up this episode.

Then we head to the conference room where we choose sides on the important issues of our time: new copier vs. new chairs, chunky vs. smooth peanut butter, Recyclops vs. Belsnickel, and more!

And if we start coughing during the show, we’re sorry, we’re eating tiramisu.

112: Michael and Dwight May 20, 2021

Show notes

"I have been Michael’s #2 guy for about 5 years. And we make a great team. We’re like one of those classic famous teams. He’s like Mozart, and I’m like Mozart’s friend. No. I’m like Butch Cassidy, and Michael is like Mozart. You try and hurt Mozart; you’re going to get a bullet in your head courtesy of Butch Cassidy."

This week’s episode is dedicated to Michael and Dwight, one of the foundational relationships in The Office. We go through all of the watermelon babies, attempted coups, and fights at the dojo that make up their arc, while also talking about how the relationship changes and evolves over the course of the show.

Then in the conference room we take a question about Karen ‘Phillip’-elli, hear more of Sean’s ’True Crime Podcast’ voice, and hear about some of things people do while they listen to our show. And then we close with an International themed round of trivia.

What can you do? You can get up. And you can hug it out, bitch.
