A podcast about NBC’s ‘The Office’, looking at the moments, arcs, and characters that make up the show’s 9-season run.
Get in, the limo seats eight—this week we’re talking about Shareholder Meeting! Alex and Edwin dive into this episode from season 6 that follows Michael’s appearance in front of the shareholders and Ryan’s journey to his closet office. We cover the storylines and plot points from the episode, but also mention all of the twirls (hate the twirl), limo lady moments, and Recyclops appearances along the way.
Then we head to the Conference Room where we discuss an alternative ending for The Office before debuting a new segment called ’The Office ruined ___ for me."

"Roy and I just got back from the Poconos. I get ten vacation days a year, and I try to hold off taking them for as long as possible, and this year I got to the third week in January"
This week we're talking about The Carpet! Alex and Edwin dive into this classic from season 2 with the ferocity of Dwight calling to win that box set. We cover the storylines like Michael moving out to the bullpen, Jim moving back to the annex, and the very beginning of Ryan & Kelly. And of course we mention all of the accumulated voicemails, mysterious allergies, and monkey kidneys that go into this episode.
Then in the Conference Room Sean joins us to answer some listener voicemails! We're way overdue on cleaning up the inbox, so we spend some time talking about things like theme songs, mindful moments, and Michael hitting Meredith with his car.

This week - with the boys in the throws of holiday obligations, travel, and work assignments - we dust off a Patreon exclusive mailbag from November 2020! It was a different world, our show wasn't yet two years old, there were no kids in the picture, and The Office was still on Netflix.
We hope you enjoy this Thanksgiving treat (second drink?) and if you want access to the last five years of monthly exclusive mailbag episodes, head on over to patreon.com/michaelscott and join up!

Darryl: "That's what I've been trying to tell you, Mike. It's serious down there. We do dangerous stuff, man. This is shenanigans, foolishness, Nerf-ball. You live a sweet, little, Nerf-y life. Sittin' on your biscuit. Never havin' to risk it.
Michael: "Okay...what, Nerf isn't cool anymore?"

"Games have the power to distract people from stressful situations. Battleship got me through my parents' divorce. Operation got me through my vasectomy, i.e., my operation. I don't think I would have been able to endure my breakup with Holly had it not been for Toss Across.”

"And you, on this day of fantasy, are…a laborer."
This week during spooky season we head back to the offices of Dunder Mifflin Scranton to draft Halloween costumes! Despite already doing a characters-in-costume draft last year, we barely scratched the surface of Halloween and had more than enough to warrant a deeper dive.
Head over to our Discord to vote on the winner and submit your own Office themed costumes this year!

"It's all true. The bogeyman is real and you found him."
This week we take a detour from The Office / The Paper and head towards a creepy house in the boondocks to record a Captive Audience for the Rob Zombie's 2003 cult horror movie 'House of 1000 Corpses.' Not only is it spooky season here on MSPC, but Rainn Wilson stars in this contemporary 70's-style snuff film in which four friends find themselves entrapped in a psychotic family's Halloween rituals.
With Edwin away on work this week (lucky him), our old friend Jordan hops into the car to watch this for the first time along with Sean. Don't worry, surely nothing bad will happen!

We conclude our episode-by-episode coverage of The Paper with a look at the finale—The Ohio Journalism Awards! Sean is noticeably missing for this episode, Edwin puts on his red dress and Alex tries his best British accent as we take his place. Together they discuss the final episode of the season, talking through the storylines and best moments before reflecting on the season as a whole and thinking about what the future may hold for The Paper.
