After a 2-year hiatus, we're back! Melton is joined by guest cohost Michial Farmer of the Before They Were Live podcast to discuss coming of age, rites of passage, and the correct color of a box of Mike & Ike's. Ethics also take center stage as the KOTH gang wrestles with authenticity and appropriate respect for the animal kingdom, but how do those ideas play into the development of Hank and Bobby's central relationship? And why does everything look so Christmas-y?

Cotton and Black Friday descend upon Rainey Street, and everyone is forced to react, as the stuffing isn't the only thing that's spoiled in this classic holiday episode of King of the Hill. But are we voting for Hank's mom or the mower?

Also, is Melton offering listeners $50 to participate in a Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music focus group?

Peggy's self-confidence puts herself, and Hank, in a tough spot, and it's going to take more than premium-grade duct tape to fix this mess. But when Peggy shifts her focus to subversion, who exactly is the establishment and who is the revolutionary?

Oh, and he won't be covering the Spice Girls, but you should still flip over to Melton's other podcast, Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music.

Cotton shows off what he can do and Hank can't, as storylines and themes from "Pregnant Paws" continued to be carried to term. But which is less explainable for Melton, the Mega La Magnet or the Vegas trip?

Also, don't forget to ask your physician about Melton's other podcast, Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music. Doctor's orders.

Hank and Peggy deal with infertility past and present while Dale finds a side hustle that feels just right for him, and Melton continues, without producing any credentials, to hunt for themes that tie it all together, as we sit awkwardly through "Pregnant Paws".

And if the mood strikes you, switch over to Melton's other podcast, Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music. Because rogue is the only way we know how to do it.

Melton tackles an episode that plays with the concepts of awareness and things unspoken. What happens when everyone else comes to know that Peggy has finally come to know the thing everyone else already knows...but prefers not to talk about? It's a well-crafted King of the Hill episode, and Melton hopes his musings about it are at least more insightful that Doyle Harcavy's.

And hey, if 80s & 90s country music is good enough for John Redcorn, Melton's other podcast, Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music is good enough for you.

Bobby finds something like love, while the guys find something like furniture, in this complex classic of Season 3.

But why were you dancing with all those guys??

And hey, if country music is good enough to drown Bobby's sorrows, it must be good enough for yours. So check out Melton's other podcast, Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music.

Melton attempts pop psychology as the Hills (+ Luanne) attempt to cope with the aftermath of the Great Mega Lo Mart Explosion of 1998. Even Chuck Mangione doesn't feel so good until Kahn saves the day with a tasteless setup about a tasty strawberry. But what does a rocket ship have to do with all this?

And after you worked through the stages of this episode, work your way over to Melton's other podcast, Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music.
