One episode at a time
We pick an episode, watch it, and talk through it start to finish: the jokes that landed, the ones that aged badly, and the background details you missed the first time.
A King of the Hill Podcast
Mike and Rusty, two guys in Waco, Texas, take King of the Hill one episode at a time. Plus a Friday segment for whatever in the news ain't right, and the occasional essay when one of us has a point to make.

What's on the show
We pick an episode, watch it, and talk through it start to finish: the jokes that landed, the ones that aged badly, and the background details you missed the first time.
King of the Hill news and whatever else this week deserves a long, slow head shake. Revival rumors, casting, and the occasional story that sounds like it came straight from Arlen.
Mike, one camera, one argument. Longer looks at why the show still works, what it got right about Texas, and what the revival is doing with it.
Behind the fence
Host · camera left
Waco producer, author of Make the Show, and the one who brings the notes. Has produced more podcasts than he'll admit to and still thinks this is the best one.
Co-host · camera right
Goes by Rusty Shackleford. We have never asked to see ID. Brings the gut reactions, the hot takes, and the reason half the clips go viral.

Five questions, no wrong answers
News from Arlen
All ten episodes dropped at once. Hank and Peggy are settling into retirement on Rainey Street, and Bobby is running his own business.
Hulu ordered two more seasons, 20 episodes total, before Season 15 had even aired.
Season 14 ended a 15-year break: ten episodes, an older Bobby, and Hank and Peggy back from years in Saudi Arabia.
The voice of John Redcorn sat down with us in front of a live audience in Austin after the ATX TV Festival. It turned out to be his last interview; he died the next day. We're grateful for the conversation and we'll always hold it as a good one.
Early word from the cast that the revival would jump ahead and age Bobby up. We called it a good sign. It was.
