Not Great is about Trash Culture and loving the Trash and living in the Trash like a little Trash Raccoon. Not Great is the place to shout your unpopular opinions like Vampire Diaries > The Wire, or Buffalo Wild Wings > hygge. We love you and believe you.
Because we're all stuck inside, here's all 10 eps of COMING CLEAN in one lil guy.
It's the final episode of season 1! When we last left Belle Bishop, she was giving birth during a bank robbery gone awry. Listen now to find out how we tie up most of the loose ends!
Not an April Fool's Joke: this is indeed the 8th episode of 10! The dramatic courtroom drama.
Everything goes to heck in a handbasked for Belle Bishop! This episode features a well-timed owl hoot of which I am extremely proud.
Belle Bishop has been kidnapped! Tab Browser has been shot! Things are really heating up in Exposition Maine.
Halfway through the first season of Coming Clean, and things are falling apart for gosh dang everyone. Shimmy has let a viper into her home in the form of Reginald, Tritch has been lured into the sensual clutches of Hippa, and Belle has been arrested for money laundering. Or has she???
Belle tries to make sense of her life after her pregnancy has been revealed to the town at the Lottery Day Pageant. But even now, forces are conspiring against her. And will Tab Browser really be joining the Maine Mafia?
Episode Three!!! The Lottery Day Pageant is upon us. How will Shimmy Makewood cope with the event that has brought her such bad luck in the past? And how much longer can Belle keep her pregnancy secret? Tune in to find out! Find out more on the Not Great w/ Bethy Squires website.
Episode 2: Belle has talked to the boys that may have knocked her up, but she still doesn't know exactly who the father is. Meanwhile, Gark Makewood is selling out his family to some nefarious criminal organization. And what is up with that haunted doll?
Introducing a new, extremely serious radio serial. COMING CLEAN is about the past. It's about family. It's about a laundromat and only the most cursory knowledge of the state of Maine.
