"It makes perfect sense that it would happen today, because I just received this in the mail: a thousand business cards with this address and phone number."
Here, replenish your fluids—this week we’re talking about Branch Closing! We dedicate this episode to a classic from Season 3 that goes from Scranton to Stamford to David Wallace’s house, all while Jan drives something like 400 miles. We dive into the characters’ reactions and plans for the future after the branch closes, Dwight and Michael’s stakeout, and the fax from the future from future Dwight Jim.
Then (47:20) we head to the Conference Room where we talk about the sneak peek of The Paper! With the debut just a week away we talk about our thoughts and expectations and discuss the news that the show will now be released all at once on Peacock!

318: Alex (the character), The Office for Sale, and Office Parents
With Alex away this week Sean and Edwin spend this episode talking about…Alex! That is, Pam’s friend from art school played by Rich Sommer, who appears in only a few episodes. We go through the entirety of his arc on the show, including touching on the original intention of his character and how it was impacted by fan response.
Then we head to the Conference Room where Sean and Edwin talk about Michael’s condo being on Zillow and—as a surprise replacement segment—Edwin and Alex answer a couple listener questions!

316: Initiation (extended cut)
"I wake up every morning in a bed that's too small, drive my daughter to a school that's too expensive, and then I go to work to a job for which I get paid too little. But on Pretzel Day... well, I like Pretzel Day."
Plant that beet seed and get in the pretzel line—this week we’re talking about Initiation! We dedicate this week’s episode to this iconic episode from season 3. We cover all the major storylines, including Pam tracking Micheal’s productivity, Stanley’s love for pretzels, and Dwight and Ryan’s sales call. And of course we mention all of the pretzel toppings, Cosby impressions, and Mose cameos that go into this episode.
Then we head to the Conference Room where we talk jock jams and perfect personal pretzels before closing with a classic round of listener-submitted trivia! Look, just get in the coffin.
