Welcome to Mockumonthary! For the whole month of May, MSPC is side-stepping The Office to break down other iconic mockumentary format TV shows. Up first, we are covering Parks and Recreation, the beloved cousin of The Office. Given it's shared DNA through showrunners Greg Daniels and Michael Schur, it's simply the natural place for us to start. We discuss first impressions we had upon its debut in 2009, how it's similar yet completely different from The Office, Michael Scott vs. Leslie Knope, favorite characters and moments, and so much more! Then we head to the conference room to react to the casting announcements regarding the new show set in the Office universe. NOTE: Our 250th live episode is coming up this Sunday May 5th! If you can, please join us for a livestream on YouTube at 10am PT. You can find us on our YouTube page. Support our show and become a member of Scott's Tots on Patreon!

This week we're joined by dear friend of the pod Alison Wisneski of Lady Justice Brewing to hit the bars with Dunder Mifflin crew! Going out for drinks with co-workers is such a universal experience, and the show is often at its best when reflecting these situations. We break down how it opens up the characters, what it offers for comedic scenes, and how it leads to honest and dramatic moments. "Don't tell my fiancé I'm drinking on a Wednesday." "I won't.
