I’ve always been a fan of South Park, but these past few seasons have been kind of “meh”. Except for their latest episode. This was the first episode in a long time that made me belly laugh. And, it was only funnier because I own an Amazon Echo. This morning I was awoke by a 7am alarm that was set by the show! It’s the gift that keeps on giving!😃 ---

My wife and I introduced my teenage son to South Park last night with this episode, and we didn’t know it featured anything with Alexa. The in-episode Alexa jokes were okay-funny, but what happened in our living room had us laughing so hard we cried. ETA: I have scrotum bags on my Alexa shopping list! ---

Did anyone watch last week’s episode? Tweek makes and sends cupcakes to North Korea as a friendly gesture. The news reports that KJU loves the `cakes. This makes Tweek happy and somewhat relieved that NK won’t bomb his town. Moments later, our president tweets, “_I know that kid Tweek. He’s f_\*_ing with you, North Korea. Get a clue. I’ll bet he took a dump in the batter_." It’s an hilarious episode with a great message.
