This improvised sitcom follows the continuing adventures of the Barone Boys – Lynbrook University's hottest new co-eds and the hosts of Long Island's favorite TV rewatch podcast, "The Barone Zone." In each episode, Alex, Adam, and Mike careen through a long-form improv scene inspired by an episode of "Everybody Loves Raymond," carefully sound designed to immerse you in beautiful Lynbrook, New York. At the end, the Barone Boys dissect the source material and rate Ray's performance on their patented Baronmeter, but remember – it's not really about the show.

episode 15: This is the Podcast for Young Men. / 2.15 Marie's Meatballs (w/ Olivia Hartle)
Theatrical director and returning guest Olivia Hartle brings her perspective (and her famous meatballs) to the Winneraygo for a scene-by-scene breakdown of Season 2, Episode 15 of Everybody Loves Raymond! First, she fills the Barone Boys in on whether she's kept up with Raymond since her last appearance, the Gleeson family, and Oscar® season. Then, it's time to go through "Marie's Meatballs" and discuss the juice bit, a rare reference to the events of a previous episode, and the show's long-awaited acknowledgement of the 1996 Everest disaster.
Episode talk starts at 22:33!
