From Afternoons, 3:08 pm on 11 July 2018

No one could have predicted that a family of yellow, four fingered characters would change TV and pop culture forever when The Simpsons debuted on  December 17th, 1989. and is now the longest running scripted television show in American history.

Mathew Klickstein joins me to talk about his behind the scenes book Springfield Confidential: Jokes, Secrets, and Outright Lies From a Lifetime Writing for The Simpsons.
