Each episode reveals a different concept, throughout the show it talks about various sociological themes such as race, gender, sexuality, and family through the forms of exaggeration. Underneath all the crude humor lies the hidden truths…

Sam, it is. All we had to do was find a wizard to threaten to give us one. Sounds easy, right? Not when they have magic and all we have are our fists. Apparently, wizards have a website where they can meet other wizards and talk about spells and potions and meet up at each other’s evil lairs.
