Draft:Hill Kings Podcast


The Hill Kings Podcast[1], described by it's host as "The best show on the internet."[2], is hosted by Brad Hild-Frenette, @BRADTHEHUMAN, & Chris Covery [@CHRIS_OF_EARTH]. These long time pals rewatch the Fox animated series King of the Hill, review each episode and declare their "Hill King" (standout star). Each podcast episode is dedicated to a single King of the Hill episode (plus a season re-cap) and includes segments "This Week in Arlen", "The Alley" and "Hill King".

Segments:

  • Driving the Mower: which host is taking steering the episode.
  • This Week in Arlen: The pair review what's going on in the world during the KoTH episode premier.
  • The Alley: The boys rate each episode on a scale of 1 to 6 (an Alamo Beet six pack).
  • Hill King: Brad & Chris pick their favorite character of the episode.

Episodes are roughly one hour in length and occasionally feature a guest host.

During the Season Re-Cap episodes feature each host running a trivia challenge for the other. They also rank each episode on a (S) tier list.

Brad and Chris are Luanne-stans or Luanne-iacs; and frequently crown Luanne as their Hill King.
