Husband and wife, Geoff Lloyd (Reasons to Be Cheerful; Absolute Radio, BBC Radio 5 Live) and Sara Barron (Live at the Apollo; Would I Lie to You?) reporting for duty as Firecrotch and Normcore with this 'Succession' love-in. It's the place to put your feelings and obsessions over all things Waystar Royco: Will Shiv renew her vow to gobble the odd side-D? Whatever happened to Marcia's creepy son? Could the Roys work it out with one more round of Boar on the Floor? All this, plus Greg sprinkles. Our marriage is always at its strongest when there's good TV to watch. Help us help you when there's a week to go until that next episode airs. (Or until Connor secures investment for his Napoleonic history podcast.)

The Firecrotch & Normcore: a Succession Podcast is hands down one of the best podcasts I have come across in recent times. From the moment I started listening, I was immediately hooked and couldn't get enough of the hilarious banter between Sara and Geoff. Their chemistry is palpable, and it's clear that they share a deep love for the show.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is how they connect with their audience in a low-pressure way. It feels like you're just sitting down with friends, discussing your favorite show. The hosts are relatable and genuine, which makes listening to their conversations all the more enjoyable. They have an incredible ability to dissect each episode, delving into its themes and characters with incredible depth and insight.
Another standout aspect of this podcast is the quality of their interviews with guests. The interview with Jesse Armstrong, the creator of Succession, was particularly enlightening. It provided valuable insights into the show's creation and gave listeners a glimpse into Armstrong's creative process. With each interview, they manage to bring out unique perspectives from their guests that add great value to understanding Succession on a deeper level.
If I had to point out one potential downside, it would be that the podcast focuses solely on Succession. While this may not necessarily be a negative aspect for die-hard fans like myself, it might limit its appeal to those who haven't watched or aren't interested in the show. However, if you are a fan of Succession or are planning to watch it soon, then this podcast is an absolute must-listen.
In conclusion, The Firecrotch & Normcore: a Succession Podcast is an incredibly entertaining and insightful podcast that should not be missed by any fan of the show. Sara and Geoff's witty banter never fails to make me laugh, while their thoughtful analysis adds another layer to my appreciation for Succession. Whether you're looking for a lighthearted fan discussion or a more intellectual exploration of the show's themes, this podcast has it all.

Boo!Did we getcha???Happy spooky Hallowe'en, everyone. Sara hatches a plan to go as Chappell Roan (whose name she just had to Google ), before deciding against it. She's up to some truly scary stuff with coconut oil too.Plus: 'No Hard Feelings', 'Weird: The Al Yankovic Story', another episode of 'Disclaimer', 'Janet Planet', and Billy Crystal tries his hand at horror in Apple TV's 'Before' - but is there enough pumpkin in his paprikash?Scrawl a message in blood on our bathroom mirror: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comTrick or treat! https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCH Hosted on Acast.

Hello! This week, we're transatlantic, like a pair of Freddie Laker mother-effers. Sara is in the suburbs of Chicago, and wants to be left alone.
