FRIENDS of the Podcast - The One With All the Poker

How you doin?  We're back with FRIENDS of the Podcast: our Friends retrospective and could we be any more excited? Ian and Georgia are here on a FRIENDS Friday to discuss all things Season 1 of the hit 90s sitcom as we discuss Season 1, Episode 18: The One With All the Poker. We're trying to figure out who's bluffing and who's holding a flush as we discuss:

• Why the girls are so determined to play poker and then so angry when they have to pay up
• Why are Chandler and Joey so immature with Ross and why is he hiding his love for Rachel all of a sudden
• Whether Joey is the stupidest character at this point or is someone surpasses him 
• Ian finds a loophole that would've allowed Joey to eat when Rachel says no
• We learn about the soundtrack to Ace Ventura but we differ about how relevant this information is
• Ian shares some poker etiquette that every character seems to break in this episode
• Georgia shares some of her thoughts and emotions post-CATS as we talk through the post-show blues
• We discuss which parts of the episode are the best for water cooler discussion

We're so thrilled with our theme music by Baltic House Orchestra.  Catch their stuff over at:
