Writer and executive producer Dave Goetsch is back, and he’s helping break down “The Panty Piñata Polarization.” But first, Dave and host Jessica Radloff share why they are both surprisingly grateful that “Big Bang” ended after Season 12. Then, Dave discusses how “America’s Next Top Model” became a central character in this episode and how the writers split up storylines each week. Plus, why Dave loves the dynamic between Penny and Sheldon in this episode. You can watch all episodes of “The Big Bang Theory” on HBO Max. © 2025 WBEI.
