The Summer of Sheldon is nearly over, but the fun continues for at least one more episode! We're joined by the hilarious and charming comedian Ivan Decker to discuss the most hopelessly disjointed Young Sheldon to date. Nothing carries over in this show. Literally nothing matters. It's not even self-contained, it's just... there. Ray Liotta appears with an utterly baffling cameo, and we continue to find more interesting storylines in throwaway lines than the plot they actually used for this episode.

Future guests on Real Good Sheldon include... YOU??? The guest for our sixth episode will be drawn from the list of Patreon donors on August 29th, so you could win your way on to an episode just by supporting the show. Thank you, and good luck.

The Summer of Sheldon continues with another RGS/YKS cross-over event! That's right, those good ol' boys from Your Kickstarter Sucks, Jesse Farrar and Michael Hale, are here to watch easily the worst episode of the Young Sheldon we've subjected ourselves to to date. Just a punishingly terrible episode of television. But that's okay, because an episode of Young Farrars breaks out instead, as Jesse's children crash the podcast.

This week on the show that is just, uhhhh, ok, the Real Good Boys are still stuck for what to talk about, so they take a deep-dive on the topics you're dying to know about, like the world of McDonaldland and how much money they'd accept to make their internet search histories public. PLUS: Brief Canucks talk! Movies that get adapted into video games! And the boys finally reveal what they would do with all the hats if they scored an NHL hat trick.

Oh baby, it's that Summer of Sheldon time again! This week we're joined by delightful comedian and fan-favourite guest JENNY TOEWS to discuss an episode of Young Sheldon that's... *gasp* actually good? It starts strong anyway, but eventually regresses to the mean. That's fine too, because we actually barely talk about it! Annie Potts joins the cast for this episode, so it's largely spent discussing THAT SCENE in Ghostbusters (you know the one) -- a movie with John has somehow never seen. Dan Aykroyd is a sick freak.

This week on the show whose friends call it Big Al, the boys are stuck in the dog days of summer and get out of it by doing an extended mailbag, answering some extremely existential questions, like what our first novel would be about and what living person would be the most difficult to hunt. PLUS: Ultimate frisbee! Disc golf! Classic jerseys! And Stefan finally names the yacht he's always dreamed of owning.

It's that Summer of Sheldon time again...! Comedian BRIAN GAAR (Rooster Teeth, ATX Uncensored) joins the Boys this time out to give a genuine Texan perspective on the second episode of Young Sheldon -- an episode that has actual jokes in it! But also an episode with little to no plot. It's a give-and-take situation. We do our best to expand upon the nothingness of this episode and discuss the frequency with which Sheldon would get beaten up in reality, inappropriate teacher-student socializing, and what really goes down in the teachers' lounge. PLUS: Brian hears the word "Bazinga" for the very first time, and drops the hammer on whether Sheldon has beaten Battletoads.

This week on the show that still kisses its kids on the mouth, the Real Good Boys realize it's been a long time since they've come up with a new segment, so they spend an awful lot of time doing just that, cooking some up in the Segment Kitchen. PLUS: Justin goes Incognito! Ray Lewis gets inducted into the Hall of Fame! Don Cherry (not that one, the other one)! And Justin finally becomes a man and gets his first-ever SCENE Card.

The Summer of Sheldon is officially here! We kick off our August mini-series of Young Sheldon reviews by taking in the pilot with classic RGS guest Chris James, and seem to go out of our way to not discuss the episode. Because, what is this show, some kinda drama or something? We'd rather discuss Chris's admittedly strange history with the Big Bang Theory, and those giant gumball machines they used to have at Blockbuster.

(checks notes) Troy Stecher and salad. PLUS: Trevor Linden leaves the Canucks! We debate the ceiling of Elias Pettersson! Jim Harbaugh thinks eating chicken gives you brain diseases! New holiday mascots! And Justin comes out swinging against The Office.

This week on the show that learned to become a Wizard, John is away which means comedian RYAN WILLIAMS returns as special guest co-host!

In this clip, Chris has questions about weight-cutting in UFC, but the Coffee Boss is the wrong man to ask.
