We'll be back next week with new stuff, in the meantime enjoy a trip to the archive! In many ways, season 3 of The Office represents a high point for the show.

We dive in to look at the beats, highlights, and signature moments, and why it remains so well loved. Then we wrap with look at a mystery character from the early seasons and a trivia segment graced with Prison Mike. Support our show and become a member of Scott's Tots on Patreon!

Fire up the video iPod--this week we're looking back at pop culture! In an episode we're calling Millennium School of Pop Culture, we dive into a few significant things from 2006 and 2016.

"I am taking a calculated risk. What's the upside? I overcome my nausea, fall deeply in love, babies, normalcy, no more self loathing. Downside? I, uh, date Michael Scott publicly and collapse in on myself like a dying star.” Change your shirt, you dressed exactly like the servants—this week we’re talking about Cocktails! We dedicate this week’s episode to this classic from season 3, complete with drinking games, magic tricks, and Michael’s “homemade” potato salad. We talk through the storylines at David Wallace’s house and at Poor Richard’s. And best believe we mention all of the love contracts, ketchup fights, and chimney inspections along the way. Then we head to the Conference Room where we discuss the NBA playoffs, Hacks, The Boys, and a whole lot more!Separately, on an unrelated note, if you happen to find a small brass key...

"Last night, I dreamed that the number two was the most valued number in the world. The vice-president had all the power, athletes fought for silver medals, women were considered the best gender, and stadiums of fans shouted, 'we're number two!’ As with all my dreams, I'm guessing it was about my fear of immigrants." This week we’re drafting Office plot lines! But not the main story, the B and C stories that make up our favorite episodes. We go through and draft all of the amazing, hilarious, and iconic storylines that go into the series. And naturally we cover all the bedtime stories, potential vampires, and wooden mallards that go into these episodes. Support our show and become a member of Scott's Tots on Patreon!
