About this episode

"That's What She Said" is one the most iconic and enduring jokes from The Office. We take a deep dive into the joke and how it acts as a thread that runs throughout the show.

Then Sean takes us into the world of Office Fan Fiction, and we close with a voicemail that gives some more insight into what real details from Scranton make it on screen.
