Wait, wasn't this the week we were supposed to release the SEASON 3 FINALE of Duct Tape & Paperclips? Yes. Yes it was.

But we have LIVES, people! By way of apology, let us offer you this BONUS episode, originally recorded during lockdown (when we had a Patreon and NO lives).

In it, Nathan and Annie break down the 2006 Superbowl ad that brought MacGyver out of retirement. (Check out the ad here: https://youtu.be/V70bLAPevMc - and the "making of" featurette here: https://youtu.be/gYryLFfOa8k?t=30 )

And stay subscribed/alive, no matter what occurs! Season 3, episode 20 is coming, we promise!

OMG, is this the one where Nathan cancels himself?

Annie and Nathan break down this episode of MacGyver with a frank discussion about male entitlement through the ages, Mac’s favorite hobby of pouting in the woods, and what kind of poachers would risk their lives for a fast casual restaurant.

Bachelors taking care of a baby? What a concept! Where have we seen that before in the late 80s? Certainly no place other than MacGyver!

How many times can your best friend ruin a vacation you had planned before he’s not your best friend anymore? And will MacGyver EVER be able to take that relaxing ski trip?

This week, Nathan and Annie discuss this and other issues, such as: the 80s “magical Indian” trope, lending your sled dogs to a man you just met, and shooting the head off a moving snowman.

Hey quick question, can PTSD be triggered by racism?

In MacGyver’s world it can! Nathan and Annie discuss the mental health of a man named “Earthquake,” hot pink toxic sludge, and why MacGyver likes to yell at his best friends.

Ooooh, MacGyver has a GIRLFRIEND!

Spoiler, it ends the way most relationships with him end: with her stalking him around a warehouse at night with a knife.

Nathan and Annie dig into this campy, fun, dumb episode (aren’t they all?), discussing Nikki’s ugly new haircut, how to seduce an aw-shucks environmentalist, and Pete’s first non-annoying appearance yet.

Note: this was recorded during a heat wave, which nearly melted the hard drive the podcast is stored on, as well as the co-hosts who make it.

It's another backyard, face-to-face episode with Nathan and Annie — but this time, the MacGyver ep they're covering actually has things HAPPENING in it!

We talk about ways to make Pete look competent (hint: put him in a room with Jack), how MacGyver always manages to convince bad women to turn good, and whether or not a houseboat appreciates in value. Plus we geek out over Hulu's The Bear for like 10 minutes.

Nathan and Annie are back in person, recording from Nathan’s backyard! After a brief catchup and convo about what happens when a beer festival runs out of beer, Annie blows Nathan’s tiny mind by revealing a key technology that made her viewing of this episode of MacGyver fundamentally different.

Oh, and what an episode it is! (Is the sarcasm reading? This is VERY boring episode of television.)


But hey, if you enjoy low-stakes hockey, a total lack of danger and intrigue, or seeing Richard Dean Anderson yell at kids while wearing a tie, episode 13 is lucky for you!


We promise the podcast ep is better than the TV ep! Listen to Season 3, episode 13 of MacGyver: Thin Ice!
