AVSEPod Episode 116: How I Met Your Mother - "Slapsgiving"

 

For Thanksgiving this year, David chooses violence with How I Met Your Mother's "Slapsgiving", an episode in which the threat of a looming slap hangs over Barney's head while also inviting rants aplenty from Austin and David about the ultimate legacy of HIMYM. Meanwhile, Carolyn ponders whether puns are the hand jobs or blow jobs of comedy, and all three question how much sex is too much sex.
