    It's been six years (to the day!) since we dropped the first episode of YDAFT, 'A Centaur at Panera.' 150 episodes later...it's time for Matt and Eric to fall in love. In celebration of our buck-fifty milestone, we're taking on Dr. Arthur Aron's famous "36 questions that lead to love." The psychologist's increasingly personal list of questions, popularized a decade ago by essays in The New York Times' column Modern Love, is meant for two strangers to go through and by the end -- BAM -- love.

    In what will be (at least) a two-part series, Matt and Poch embark on the road to love.

    This week, we're rounding up a series of questions regarding children's books, including Goodnight Moon, Winnie the Pooh, Five Little Ducks, and Mr. Brown (of mooing fame). But first: some dream analysis.

    Why is spicy the only flavor our butts can detect and replicate? We know what a bit is...but what is a tid? We tackle these quandaries while pontificating on the power of Biscoff before we're joined (and corrected) by Dr. Lindsey R. Barr and her correction corner.

    Look out! A new Definitive Ranking approaches! That's right: Definitive Ranking makes its triumphant return as we rank the original Super Smash Bros lineup based on actual lethality. But first: How many people do you have to have in your secret society for it to actually be considered a secret society and not just a group of friends?

    Matt makes his triumphant return to the pod just in time to check in with YDAFT Bingo. Then: In the Toy Story universe, how come Bullseye (Woody’s horse) is treated like an actual animal? Meanwhile, the other animal toys like Hamm, Slinky, and Rex are treated like fully sapient beings?

    Finally, we close things out with some listener-demanded local legends.

    Zacky D, the interim co-host for you and me, returns to fill in Matt's spot under the shady tree that is Eric's lanky body...but Matt isn't entirely absent this time. This episode marks the return of Hidden Objectives, this time provided for Poch and Zack by none other than Mr. Shea himself. Also, that weird ghost in the machine seems to still be around. Weird.

    Question-wise, Eric and Zack tackle the following: what's your murder preference as a victim? You two are buying a dog together...annnnd go.
