ALFsplaining - the ALF Podcast

Yes, we've finally done it! After writers Al Jean and Mike Reiss, after ALF himself Paul Fusco we've actually interviewed a cast member! And it's genuinely one of our favourites - the lovely Josh Blake who, as Jake, became a standout in season 3. youtu.be/VGgX95TPapw?...

We usually comment on the 80s fashions in every episode of ALF, but this week they can only be viewed via a pinhole in a piece of cardboard. Full episode open.spotify.com/episode/6uLq...

Only ALF could teach us about the art of Rolfing

NEW!! When not rolfing (see previous post) in the latest episode we find ALF deep in thought, stuck to a table and dead. It's got to be a Jerry Stahl episode! Listen in: open.spotify.com/episode/6uLq... Listen out: linktr.ee/ALFsplaining

In an all new ALFsplaining this week we learn what "rolfing" is. Listen in: open.spotify.com/episode/6uLq... Listen out: linktr.ee/ALFsplaining

CERTIFIED ROLFERS

Just listened to this weeks @alfsplaining.bsky.social and I think I can pinpoint the exact moment @benbaker.bsky.social soul left his body. #rolfing

Of course Lynn has a pig mask on her wall.

Last night on #Taskmaster

This still from #Taskmaster makes it look like ALF is being worshipped as a god.

Not enough people are watching @thehouseofsplain.bsky.social's astounding new video about The Stage magazine in 1976 and we put this down to lack of awareness rather than the fact it's too niche. So here's some pictures to tempt you to click on www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLEa... and watch it...

ALFsplaining Extra is now THE HOUSE OF SPLAIN on Patreon - don't worry all the great ALF extras are still there and we will continue doing great ALF extras forever until we drop down dead. But this month it's all about video games.

So I’m going to attempt to do this. I wanted to do a little something for the 40th anniversary of ALF, so here goes. Here’s the link to the form: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

1: “Just roll with it, okay? They were supposed to be pointier…but Roddenberry’s attorneys got to us first.” 2: The Comic Con organizers were shocked to discover the popularity of the Max Wright cosplay contest.

These lads are friends of ALFsplaining, as John has already been on to talk about Mindhorn and we've shared pints with them in real life, so this comes highly recommended.

Find out what my opinions of Ricky Gervais are - ONLY in this podcast!! .......I'm not a fan. Oh dammit. Well, listen anyway.

What on earth is going on in all these screen grabs? Well they're all from the latest episode of ALF we're covering on ALFsplaining. All will make sense once you've listened at linktr.ee/ALFsplaining!

🚨NEW! NEU! NOUVEAU!🚨 There's a new episode of ALFsplaining out today, and it's a cracker! 💥 ALF dresses as one of Candy Flip! 💥 Lynn gets stoned! 💥 There's the greatest cameo in the history of ALF! 💥 And the best visual gag this season! All at linktr.ee/ALFsplaining!

While the Crimestoppers host was Paul Fusco’s first on-screen speaking role in ALF, I believe he actually had a non-speaking cameo before it! It’s in “It Isn’t Easy Being Green”, specifically the first shot of the Nutrition Follies audience. It’s very brief and only in the original broadcast cut.

Over at our partner podcast, the House Of Splain...

Imagine the timeline where ALF was bought by the BBC instead of ITV. What's your favourite event from that timeline? Ours is when he came to the UK and went on Wogan.

As promised in the latest episode of ALFsplaining - you asked, we delivered - the desiccated corpses of the California Raisins! To hear that episode: linktr.ee/ALFsplaining Or go direct: open.spotify.com/episode/0950...

Why is “Red” being impaled with a screwdriver? Was the fact that they were all decaying not punishment enough?! Off topic but for some reason I always thought the Zsa Zsa Gabor joke was about the way she seemed to loathe ALF on Hollywood Squares, but I guess I was wrong. The more you know.
