ALFsplaining returns for Season 4 in September, but ahead of that we've been reading ALF's Summer Magazine from 1989 over at patreon.com/ALFsplainingExtra There's exciting things afoot this "fall", as we'll address the fact we've only got one season of ALF to go by expanding the House Of Splain!

A screengrab from the latest ALFsplaining patreon, showing the cover of the magazine we're reading and period images of Ben and John from 1989.

Was talking about this earlier today with some friends: what single actor/performer has performed a character in more TV shows than Paul Fusco as ALF? This is a conservative list, no specials like "Project ALF" here. ALF didn't ever disappear.

Paul Fusco and ALF. ALF has been on "ALF", "ALF: The Animated Series", "ALF Tales", "Matlock", "The New Hollywood Squares" from the 1980s, "Blossom", "The Love Boat: The Next Wave", "The Cindy Margolis Show", "Hollywood Squares" (from the late 90s-2000s), "ALF's Hit Talk Show", "Saturday Night Live" (non-spoken cameo but Paul was there), "Mr. Robot", "Young Sheldon", "Duncanville", "The Simpsons", "Impractical Jokers" - not including things like "The O'Reilly Factor", "Good Morning America", "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", or "Project ALF", maybe others?

According to a post from the official ALF Twitter account a few years back, Melmacians celebrated a holiday called the Beginning of Shrimp, which is implied to be the equivalent of Earth’s Pride Month. It can therefore be implied that ALF is an ally, if this account is canon.

A post from the official ALF Twitter account on June 1, 2022. The post reads: “It’s the First of Orring! That marks the official Beginning of Shrimp. Don’t just wave the prawn banner and call it a month! Give love all year long -ALF” Below the text is a picture of a prawn with colors and markings similar to the progress Pride flag.

I did wonder why our negotiations with Double Sided Heavy Duty 3m Clear Sticky Tape (Unbranded) for title sponsorship of Night of Champions had fallen through. We just can't compete with those numbers.

Well, we're proud to say we've finally got a sponsor - let's see if we can blend it into the episode like those professional podcasters do without any cringe #PipersCrisps In a very special episode we read some eye-opening listeners letters about all things Shumway open.spotify.com/episode/6oSQ...

Hark at me getting the lads to have a halfway decent discussion about German culture. Rest assured, normal service was resumed for the rest of the show.
