    <description>Being Jim Davis is the world's premiere daily Garfield chrono-cast. Our mission is to review and discuss each and every strip of the long-running syndicated comic series before eventually dying of old age. We hope you'll come along with us on this journey, and share in the laughter as we catalogue the daily adventures of everyone's favorite indolent feline through a lens of history, humor, and heuristics.
Each episode will be a thorough examination of a single strip. We'll place it in its historical context, then attempt to unravel the morals and meanings hidden under the surface. Finally, we'll consider the question of whether the strip stands the test of time. Above all, we promise to always present you with our sincere, personal, reaction to each Garfield comic strip.
Our only thought is to entertain you.

  <description>It's often been suggested by certain naysayers of this podcast that we frequently forget to post the correct strip links for our 1075th ever episode which is for May 28th, 1981, but being that this is not the 1075th episode for May 28th, 1981, but rather the 1076th episode for May 29th, 1981, there is no way for you to confirm this slander, so you begin to doubt it. Soon this doubt consumes your entire being. You question everything, including your own name. You eventually lose all grip on reality, and the odd familiarily of the strip linked to in today's episode, which to recap is episode 1076 for May 29th, 1981 is nothing more than an odd curiosity. What the fuck, odd curiosity???
Your hosts for today's episode: Jon Gibson, Ryan Pfeiffer
