Friday Jun 26, 2020
Hey Broomheads, #DEEEMP is back for the two-parter with something for everyone! It’s got Kevin Smith, the birth of a fan fave couple, an ill-advised middle-aged kiss, ol’ gossipmonger Jay, and no sign of JT whatsoever. It’s a fun one and we’re glad to be back, and hope we can provide some relief during a not great time. Enjoy!

Hey Broomheads! #DEEEMP is back for your Friday, and it’s a good one. Spinner breaks up with Jay for what feels like the hundredth time, all while getting closer to Darcy AND Jesus! Meanwhile, Jimmy is leaning in to his sudden artistic genius and pulling away from Hazel in the interim. Also, listen to find out who gets what side of the “Best Friends” necklace between Trump and Steve Mnuchin, and hear, possibly, the most Rachel sentence in Rachel history.

Hey, Broomheads! #DEEEMP is back with a very, very special episode because, for the first time in #DEEEMP history we’re welcoming a third guest host—Rach and Pat’s great pal and self-proclaimed Broomhead Mayra Velasco! She’s gonna help Rach and Pat get to the bottom of Jimmy’s Dad, Liberty’s pregnancy timeline, and the Britney Spears song “Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman.” It’s fun! Mayra’s great and all the great pals of the show pay the gang a visit at some point or another. Even Steve Mnuchin.

Hey Broomheads! Rach and Pat are back on #DEEEMP for the record-breaking second week in a row! Craig is vowing to remain girlfriend-free for the time being, but he finds himself in the crosshairs of both Ellie and Manny. Meanwhile Joey J is punching way above his weight class with Diane, a young lady looking for love and a domestic used car, whatever that means. We hope you guys are safe and healthy and we’ll see you next week!

Friday Apr 24, 2020
Hey Broomheads, your pals are back after a failed attempt at continuation last week! Some tech problems kept us from getting to two in a row, but fear not, we’re back on the horse! This week, Liberty and JT come to a crossroads in their relationship—the very same relationship that has been given about six minutes of screen time prior to this episode. Elsewhere, Darcy (is she a new student or the same person from last season, only she’s forgotten the school shorting?) is indoctrinating Spinner into “Friendship Club,” a club for Jesus. It’s fun! Hope everyone is safe and well and we’ll see you next week!

We hope you enjoy!
