The Strike - Season 9 Episode 10
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine's obsession with getting a free sub sandwich leads her down a path of creepy guys and a frightening look. JLD gets to flex those comedy muscles and I'm here for all of it. I know I would be really mad if I lost a punch card! Enjoy! Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Apology - Season 9 Episode 9
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine's co-worker Peggy suspects she sleeps with a lot of dudes, so she protects herself from Elaine's sexual cooties around the office. Offended, Elaine resorts to immersing Peggy in her germs and enlists the help of her boyfriend, Puddy, who is a recovering germaphobe. This is one of my favorite plots for Elaine and JLD performs the physical comedy with perfection. Enjoy! Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Betrayal - Season 9 Episode 8
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine's spite takes over as she travels to India for the wedding of her rival, Sue Ellen Mischke. This groundbreaking episode is known as the "Backwards Episode" since it takes on the structure of Harold Pinter's play of the same name. JLD has one of her best performances of the entire series in this one and I cannot get enough of Drunk Elaine. Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Slicer - Season 9 Episode 7
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
The alarm of Elaine's neighbor causes some grief in a couple of ways. Once again, Kramer swoops in to help Elaine and suffers for it from electrocution to a damaged slicer for which he has very strong feelings. This is a fun episode, although I think Elaine's plot is probably the weakest. Enjoy! Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Merv Griffin Show - Season 9 Episode 6
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine's latest co-worker drama is a dude who comes out of nowhere - a REAL SIDLER! This is easily one of my favorite episodes of Seinfeld, mostly because of the Merv Griffin Set storyline, but Elaine gets a really solid plot that is perfectly structured. JLD's physicality is on full display, from the twitch of an eye to chasing around the rattling Tic Tacs! Enjoy! Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Junk Mail - Season 9 Episode 5
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine dumps Puddy when she instantly falls for another man thanks to a magical, fairytale moment! Unfortunately, what she thinks is attraction is just the memory of him in a cheesy commercial. This episode is full of plots that start out strong and then fall apart. JLD is cheated with the weakest plot, but still brings some great comedy!

The Blood - Season 9 Episode 4
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine puts a lot of effort into proving she is responsible enough to raise a kid. None of this makes sense for the charactrer, but JLD does her best with this forced storyline. At least I found some juicy drama on TikTok involving one of the guest stars! Enjoy! Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Serenity Now - Season 9 Episode 3
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine's shiksappeal causes a couple assaults, a proposal from Jerry and a Myrtle Beach invite from a Rabbi. JLD gets a lot of fun moments in this episode and the return of Frank & Estelle Costanza is a huge bonus! Enjoy! Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Voice - Season 9 Episode 2
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Elaine can't quit Puddy and it is costing her a lot of money! JLD gets some very fun moments in this one. Any Elaine and Puddy episode will keep me laughing! Enjoy! Insta - @hotheavyelaine TikTok - @elainebenespodcast Email - [email protected]

The Butter Shave - Season 9 Episode 1
Hot & Heavy: The Elaine Benes Podcast
Last first episode! Elaine and Puddy have spent a month together traveling through Europe and we get to see the explosion of rage that has caused on the flight home. Such a brilliant move bringing Puddy back this season and JLD as travel-weary Elaine is the perfect way to kick off the last season of Seinfeld.

info_outlineElaine's reign as president of J. Peterman comes to an end after J. Peterman himself returns from Burma. Elaine is teed up for a couple highly comedic storylines; George resenting her financially "stickin' it" to him and losing her job as president, but instead we get buried under too many scenes involving Florida and a Cadillac. I also discuss some behind-the-scenes tea from Sarah Silverman!
