Sneaking in my June episode right under the wire! Welcome to Episode 108 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour; this month I'm joined by my slightly sniffly but still very entertaining husband, Rich, as we discuss the CW's Stargirl, why the 2018 version of Little Women sucked, how I missed the point of 45 Years, and we forget Hector Hammond's name (again). There are also some pretty hefty spoilers for S2 of The Twilight Zone. Enjoy! Content warning: discussion of I May Destroy You between the 48 and 52 minute marks references sexual assault.

Welcome to episode 107 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This month I'm joined by my delightful buddies and Parlour favourites, Jenni Newman & Lee Grice to chat about SO MUCH STUFF. Almost too much stuff, really, but not quite. We're ruminating on the CW DC universe and it's newest addition, Stargirl; Jenni has issues with ducks in shoes (or not in shoes, I'm not quite sure), Stacey saw a film she has very strong feelings about, and Lee is possibly sharing a bit too much... Enjoy! Stacey's Twitter: @StaceysParlour Lee's Twitter: @LovelyLee_G Jenni's Twitter: @AngelJ5 The Parlour tip jar

Good day to you all and welcome to another episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Joining me in the Parlour this month is friend to both myself and the show; Neil Morris! As you can imagine, Neil & I have had quite a lot of time for sticking movies and TV shows into our eyes of late, so listen in as Neil weighs in on new Red Dwarf, I have a possibly unpopular opinion of Empire Records, and we both lose our minds over Matt Berry. Spoiler warning for Red Dwarf and Swallow (and possibly other things that I've forgotten, sorry...)

Oh, what's this little audio nugget in your Christmas stocking? Why, it's Episode 100 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! As is tradition at this time of year, I am joined by my splendid hubby Rich, our good buddy Phil and a metric sh*t-ton of mulled wine to give a wee round up of a few of our favourite things about 2019. Which of us dug His Dark Materials? Where does Marriage Story sit in our rankings? Will Rich ever stop writing 'Cop Car' in my notebook? Find out all of this, plus I sing an inappropriate song from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia completely out of context, Rich attempts mulled wine stealth, and Phil might be making up band names! Thank you so much for tuning in to The Parlour over the last 100 episodes; whilst my listenership is small, I am super thankful for each and very person that has ever listened to an episode (and I sincerely hope you enjoyed it!) I hope that, no matter how you're spending your festive period, you have an absolutely cracking time. See you in 2020!

Good day, lovely listeners, and welcome to Episode 97 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This month I'm joined by Parlour regular and my good buddy, Nick Papaconstantinou!

The dynamic geek breakfast duo of Stace and Barry make the leap from Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour over to the Geek Syndicate Network. In this brand new second series (was easier than calling it episode 23 and confusing everyone) the pair are here to welcome you once more to the weekend. The pair pick their musical faves from the Lion King and Into the Spiderverse. There's then their picks of the fortnight and a look at some Saturday morning comics. Be warned they may and do get very sweary!        

I'm being way more on the pulse of pop culture than usual as I'm joined by Parlour regulars Rich & Phil to discuss Avengers: Endgame. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT WE SPOIL LITERALLY EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS MOVIE. We could not contain ourselves, so please, if you haven't seen Endgame yet and you don't want to be spoiled, back away from this recording and get yourself to your nearest cinema! To say anything more about this episode would probably be spoilery too, so if you've seen Endgame (or don't mind whacking great clanging spoilers), sit back, relax, and enjoy Episode 92 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour!

Welcome to another instalment of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Joining me in The Parlour this month are Friends of the Parlour and jolly lovely folks, Jenni Newman & Lee Grice!

Hear how we felt about Jodie Whittaker, our thoughts on the villain, and more! Enjoy! Episode Themes - 'Doctor Who Theme' by Geoff Love and His Orchestra Apologies to all for a) the slighty dodgy sound (I shall not be using Skype's new in-built call recorder again) and b) the raging colds both Lee and I have.

Duncan from Stacebob and the Dweebs is back with us this week, and we're talking about the 1980 movie comedy that brought forth a movie genre that exists to this very day - the movie parody!

Join my rather jolly spiffing husband Rich and I as we fumble through a very tired and slightly unplanned episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Rich is back on his 365-movies-this-year-that-I've-never-seen-before mission and so I grill him on some of his likes and dislikes of the year so far. I also apparently entirely miss the point of S3 of Love, we're excited for Wrestlemania, and I get cross about foodstuffs... Enjoy!

Joining me for this festive year in review bumper extravaganza are Parlour regulars; my splendid hubby Rich, and not-a-Cockney buddy Phil! We're recounting the things we loved most about 2017 (in pop culture that is, because 2017 outside of pop culture was a bit of a nightmare, innit..!) and the odd thing we weren't so keen on. Who was disappointed by Riverdale? Which superhero movies made it into our lists? How long can two people possibly talk about Twin Peaks? Tune in to find out all this and more besides! (WARNING: Here be spoilers.) I hope you all have a cracking Christmas and an absolutely amazing New Year. See you in 2018!

This month, my hubby and general geeky gent Rich Taylor is saving you from having to sit through a solo Stace episode by joining me to chat. We're a bit tired and ill-prepared, and as such we ramble about an awful lot of pop culture goodness, including Dunkirk, Peter Parker: Spider-Man, sneaking muffins into the cinema, GLOW, Secret Empire, Double Decker bites and more comics than you can shake a stick at! (What a bizarre expression...) We also take a turn for the far-too-early-Halloweeny as we review (supposed) scary movies The Invitation, XX and Would You Rather. All this, plus our official Chris Charts! Enjoy! Episode Theme - 'Lust For Life' by Lana Del Rey End Theme - 'Ti Amo' by Phoenix

Joining me in The Parlour this month are delightful regulars; my rather splendid husband, Rich, and our good friend and faux-Cockney, Phil! We're pretty much all over the shop in this episode as I suffer with sleep deprivation whilst the whiskey's a-flowin' for Rich & Phil. We talk about Baby Driver, how much Rich adores the Oh Hello live show, Phil & Rich's thoughts on the return of Twin Peaks, and how little I know about pop culture... All this, plus me not accepting the concept of Blood Drive and having a miniature meltdown over it, Rich watching Adam Sandler movies on purpose, and Phil suffering through Alien Covenant... Enjoy! Episode Theme - 'FM' by Steely Dan End Theme - 'Shadow' by Chromatics WARNING: Mild spoilers within, and some pretty tinny sound, sorry! It was hot as balls when we reocrded so we had the windows open, and removing the sound of the M6 wafting through reduced the quality a bit.

Ls, Gs, NBs and all in between, welcome to another special episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Wonder Woman is out and IT IS GOOD; listen in as Parlour regular and flippin' top tits lady Jenni Newman and I get thoroughly over-excited by this glorious movie. Fair warning; here be spoilers! Enjoy! Episode Theme - 'Wonder Woman's Wrath' by Rupert Gregson-Williams (WW OST) End Theme - 'No Man's Land' by Rupert Gregson-Williams (WW OST) HUGE apologies to all you lovely listeners and to Jenni for this episodes sound issues; for the most part the episode is fine, but there's occasional echo, occasional muffle-ness, and an obvious delay in spots that causes a little talking over each other. I tried to edit aruond it to keep it audible but in some bits it was impossible. I am crap at technology!

Cor blimey, it's Episode 65 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This episode, I am joined by one half of Geek Syndicate and my SPCP Live partner in crime, Barry Nugent, as we try to put the pop culture world to rights, whilst running temperamental baths...

Welcome to a lovely jubbly bonus episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Parlour regular and tip-top gent Luke Foster joins me to obsess over Gravity Falls for a while. We talk about why we fell so completely in love with the show, share some of our favourite episodes and moments, and basically be massive, massive nerds about it. It's really good though guys. Like, really good! Sadly, it seems Bill Cipher was mucking with our recording, rendering a good 25 minutes of it completely unsalvagablely static-y. My apologies to Luke for losing some top notch chat, and to you lovely listeners for all the bits later in the episode where Luke and I reference stuff that got cut. Ruddy Bill.

On this episode of Podcasting Smarter, I am joined by Stacey Taylor, a veteran podcaster from Birmingham, England who started podcasting back in 2007 when she worked at the world's most boring job. She is the host of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour and Podcast On A Half Shell where she talks nerdy about comics, films, TV shows, books, video games, and of course the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. We have lots of fun nerding-out on podcasting.  Stacey's Podcasting Smarter Tips: Don't be surprised when people care about what you have to say. When Stacey's first podcast came to an end, she thought that was the end of her podcasting until some listeners encouraged her to start another one. Podcasting helps you find other people who care about the same things you do. Podcasting has given her the confidence to reach out to her heroes and to really get to know them by inviting them on her podcast. Stacey enjoys a large social circle of people from all over the world that is a direct result of her podcast. Listen back to your episodes as a listener without worrying about the stresses of recording and editing. It's a great way to improve your podcasting skills. She prefers podcasts with more than one host, but only when they have a chemistry, and don't talk over top of each other. She wants to feel enthusiasm and passion from podcast hosts. Know your niche, and carve out your unique space within it. Stacy has grown her audience by being a guest on other podcasts and tapping into their listeners. Advice to new podcasters: Don't expect a bajillion downloads right away or you will set yourself up for failure. Pay attention to and serve your core audience. She empathises with her guest's need to feel comfortable. Days before recording, she asks if there is anything they need, or of they have any questions. She also makes sure to prep them thoroughly about the podcast topic and flow, so they can relax and have fun with her. Prep, prep and more prep for your interviews. Small audiences can reap massive rewards. A small, but enthusiastic audience can open doors, give you terrific engagement, and a very rewarding podcasting experience. Stacey's Fantasy Podcaster: Mitch Hedberg Stacey's Hypothetical Podcast About Her Life: A Big Ol' Mess A Good Starter Episode of Stacey's Podcasting Parlour: Episode 37 - Arnie Tourette’s & Squid Fist Bumps You can listen to Stacey's Pop Culture Podcast on Podbean, iTunes, and Stitcher.

Why hello there! The bunting has come down, the fancy china has been put back in it's swish display cabinet, and Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour is returning to normality after the extravanganza that was the live charity show! Well, you know, as 'normal' as it ever was..! Joining Stacey in The Parlour this month is the right flippin' brilliant Dani Abram! You may remember Dani from her wonderful bacon-saving appearance on SPCP Live: 2, in which she entirely forgot to talk about herself and talked about mental health instead (a very worthwhile and thoughtful conversation, it has to be said!) This time, Dani talks about her experiences as an animator and Stacey learns almost immediately that animation is not a job-land she could live in! After some incredibly interesting insight into the animation industry, Stacey and Dani go to Spoiler Town on Ghostbusters (bit late to that party, innit), Stacey expresses her disdain for Suicide Squad, Dani adds herself to the list of many, many people who tell Stacey she would love Bojack Horseman, and the pair discuss cocktails, Star Trek, shopping at Lush and loads more! It's an episode jam-packed with fun so it's recommended that you pair it with a scrummy jam doughnut, a whole mess of tea, and enjoy!

Cor, look, a lovely jubbly bonus episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! 'What's this all about then?' I hear you ask, and I will tell you; I got the opportunity to speak to someone who created something that has been a HUGE part of my life. The TMNT have been there for basically my whole nerd life, and I love them to bits, so imagine my insane excitement and sheer terror at bagging an interview with none other than Kevin Eastman! Listen in as I make some feeble attempts at appearing cool, calm and collected, whilst Kevin is very convincingly funny, brilliant and interesting! We talk about pizza flavoured beer, work-life balance, why it is that writers seem to love trying to kill of Donatello and more! Weather Update: It's still hot as balls. YEESH.

Welcome one and all to Episode 51 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Joining Stacey in The Parlour for a spot of booze and chinwagging is her good friend, telly extra and music making guy, Neil Morris! Neil and Stacey seem to suffer from tangent-itis this episode, as their chats on Captain America: Civil War, Jungle Book and Bad Neighbours 2 somehow end up being about asking stupid questions, not fitting TV audition briefs even though you clearly do and accidentally poking your eye til it sparkles... They also talk about Lost, Deadpool, Batman Vs Superman, Suicide Squad, Supergirl, Flash and loads more besides! This episode is rather jammed with fun stuff, so get to listening and enjoying! Episode Theme - 'She Ain't Got No Legs' by Bloodhound Gang End Theme - 'Dangerous Woman' by Ariana Grande

While we may have used the odd sweary word in the past, this is the first Wikishuffle episode where I feel the need to issue a specific warning for adult content. You see, this is what happens when we allow a West Midlander to breach the sacred divide that is the M6. She brings with her a whole host of smut, that we innocent and virginal East Midlanders are contractually obliged to then talk about. Stacey Taylor (from out of off of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour podcast) has an endurance event she'd like to bring our attention to. And to welcome her to the studio, Chris has been getting creative. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Ladies, gents and everything in between, welcome to Episode 49 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour; the podcast best served with tea and cake! (Except there's no cake...Someone bring cake!!) Joining Stacey in The Parlour this month is comics colourist and creator and all-around cracking chap, Kris Carter! Kris and Stacey discuss some of Kris' comic work, including Transformers (and how Stacey suffers from the rare condition of Transformers Blindness (i.e. the inability to tell most robots apart)), Doctor Who (and Kris' love/hate relationship with pinstripes) and the soon-to-be-Kickstarted Bruce Outback! Stacey raves about how fantastic Giant Days is, how terrible the Jem and The Holograms movie is and how she thought she'd taken hallucinogenic drugs when she was actually just watching the Japanese movie House, whilst Kris discusses Druid Investigations, gives his thoughts on the upcoming Preacher series and loads more! All this, plus Stacey spoils the entire plot of Predestination in a bid to understand it. She still doesn't understand it. Enjoy! Episode Theme - 'She Needs Me' by Fyfe Dangerfield End Theme - 'It's A Job' by Wolfie's Just Fine

Ten episodes old and may the odds be ever in our favour! Brave tributes Emma Platt, our returning host, and her guests Chris Haigh and PICK A FLICK! debutante Stacey Taylor--skipping over from her own STACEY'S POP-CULTURE PARLOUR--face the challenges and dangers of two fresh nominations. First up, courtesy of 'Robbo' McGovern, is THE HUNGER GAMES - they agree on the bravery of Effie Trinket and how great Jennifer Lawrence's arse is... This leads nicely into an overall discussion of DYSTOPIAN MOVIES, along with some great suggestions from you, the listener, on Twitter & Facebook. Lastly, nominated by Skip to the End podcast, the trio are gifted 1980's 'classic' MAC AND ME to enjoy. Stacey recounts how it traumatised her, and Emma just plain unleashes the fury! Finally, it's Stacey's turn in QUESTION TIME, this week about her chosen movie - how will she fare on the leaderboard. Give it a listen and you may catch fire!

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this months' installment of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Making a triumphant return to The Parlour and promising to be nicer to Stacey than when he was last on is the lovely-jubbly cartoonist and podcaster, Luke Foster!The pair talk about an inordinate amount of pop culture-y goodness; expect spoilers for Spectre and most episodes of Rick and Morty, plus some less spoilery chat about Supergirl, The Vision #1, Steven Universe, Art Ops #1, Adventure Time and a ton more besides. All this, plus Stacey tries to tackle to tough topic of comedy on difficult subjects whilst being super-tired and therefore fails miserably! (Basically, she's trying to say that she thinks pretty much nothing should be off limits comedy and jokes-wise, but you absolutely have the right to not find it funny).Stacey regales Luke with some tales of her adventures at Thought Bubble Comic Con, Luke puts Stacey on his enemies list, and the pair absolutely lose their minds over Regular Show.Enjoy!Episode Theme - 'Get Schwifty' from Rick and Morty S2E5 (performed by Justin Roiland)End Theme - 'Black Sun' by Death Cab For Cutie

Also, Stacey has wind. Sorry.Enjoy!Episode Theme - 'Through The Night' by Masahiko AimatsuEnd Theme - 'Duel Of The Fates' by John Williams

Weeeeeeeeeeeehoooooooooooooo, it's Episode 43 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour!

Stacey tries to review Turbo Kid without spoiling it (which is really, really difficult), and conversation turns to cartoons and how flipping great they are. All this, plus Lee reviews Cauliflower Field, Taylor can't talk about anything he's read because none of it is out yet, and Stacey discovers fanfiction...Enjoy!Episode Theme - 'Mulder and Scully' by CatatoniaEnd Theme - 'Me So Stupid' by ZZ Top

Oh, well hello there! Welcome to the 42nd installment of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour; the podcast that always promises cake and rarely delivers! Joining Stacey in The Parlour (read: her kitchen) this month is none other than the man that introduced Stacey to comics, her husband and fellow nerd, Rich!Somehow, the pair discuss an absolute TON of stuff in what is possibly the shortest episode of The Parlour to date, including their thoughts on Image Comics' The Beauty, MTV's Scream series, Marvel's Ant-Man and loads more. Also included in this episode is a genuine please for help regarding The Walking Dead (with an open letter from Stacey to Robert Kirkman), Rich's rant on Secret Wars and DC's new non-continuity madness, and the pairs reaction to the first two episodes of Documentary Now. All this plus Fant4stic, Wet Hot American Summer, and Stacey yet again losing her mind over the sheer awesomeness that is Rick and Morty.ENJOY!Episode Theme - 'Empty Head' by Screaming FemalesEnd Theme - 'Do You Feel It?' by Chaos ChaosVOTE FOR ME!

All this, plus Stacey still can't shut up about how great Mad Max Fury Road is (and neither can Joe), they give their thoughts on summer blockbuster Jurassic World, Joe talks about Terminator Genisys, and the pair get exasperated at all the Lady Ghostbusters news...On top of ALL THAT GOOD STUFF comes Dirk Gently excitement, Old Man Logan love and and impromptu debut for Stacey's (absolutely terrible) Scottish accent...

If you don't know either of these top notch fellas (where have you been?!), now's a good time to get to know them.Pat was recently heralded as the comic book industry's greatest sidekick in a Buzzfeed article, and they're not wrong! Whether it's through writing and drawing himself, convention attendance and photography, working with Comixology or just reading a ton of comics and watching a load of films, Pat is very much immersed in the nerdy world of pop culture. Who better to chat with then on such topics as conventions and cosplay, what was wrong with the Civil War storyline, the latest Spider-Man news, Batman vs Superman and more! Also find out why Stacey hates the First Avenger, how Pat got into comics, and the pairs thoughts on *that* Fantastic Four teaser...If you're new to The Parlour, you might not know that Stacey is a HEWGE fan of Image's tip-top comic "L'il Depressed Boy". Imagine her surprise, excitement and social-anxiety-terror when it's writer, the rather splendid Shaun Steven Struble, popped by The Parlour to talk all things nerdy!

I'd just like to say a little apology to you lovely listeners and to Mr. Struble; I have no idea why but either Skype or Pretty May pitched a bit of a hissy fit during his recording, and so some bits are a bit jumpy and weird, and some bits had to be sliced out completely. I think what's left in there makes sense (mostly) and it's still a pretty great chat, but apologies for the sound and the missing segments. S x

Hey hey! Welcome to another installment of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Remember waaaaaaaaaay back in January 2014 when you were treated to 2 jolly good episodes, because Stacey managed to bag an interview with the legendary (and utterly lovely) Rob Paulsen?

In this first slice of fried audio gold, Stacey announces the total money raised from the SPCP: Live show (spoiler: it's an overwhelmingly large amount), Lee and Stace basically cannot shut up about Agent Carter and how much they love pretty much everything about, as well as ranting about spoilers on social media, going off on Captain America-based tangents and pretty much waffling a-plenty. All this, plus Stacey tries to push Frank onto everyone (it's SO GOOD) and Lee gets upset about trailers.(Apologies for the way the episode cuts off; it was the only vaguely sensible stopping point!)Stick this in yer ears and enjoy!Episode Theme - 'Standing In The Road' by Blackfoot SueEnd Theme - 'I Love You All' by The Soronprfbs (from the Frank OST)

Well helloooo there and welcome to Episode 33 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour!This episode sees Stacey going it alone due to allsorts of factors conspiring to stop The Parlour in it's tracks (illnesses, scheduling issues, Skype recorders pitching hissy fits etc) so it's a short one this month. Stacey briefly recaps her recent trip to Thought Bubble Comic Convention in Leeds, including details on how sweaty cosplay can be, how difficult giving out business cards is, and how FLIPPIN' BRILLIANT Thought Bubble is! All this plus some brief reviews of Gone Girl (containing mild spoilers) and The Babadook (containing mild scares), and details of the TB party.So sit back with the festive beverage of your choice (Stacey recommends spiced orange mochas) and enjoy this little slice of solo podcasting!Episode Theme - 'Intergalactic' by The Beastie BoysEnd Theme - 'Techno Syndrome' by The Immortals

There's plenty of discussion (and spoilers galore) for Guardians of the Galaxy, Flash, The Walking Dead, Gotham, Marry Me, Frozen (because you all wanted to hear Stace rant about how much she dislikes that film AGAIN) and more!

The ladies recall their experiences at Thought Bubble Comic Con in Leeds last month, chatting about their nerves approaching the Gods and Goddesses of Comicdom, their purchases, sharing a hotel room, and the highlights of the con. Also contains a somewhat spoilery review of the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special (can you say HELL YEAH?!) and a lot of gushing about Jamie Smart's Kochi Wanaba hardback.Stacey and Jenni also get all festive up in here, naming their Top 3 Christmas Films! So grab a nice hot chocolate (or a mulled wine, if you're feeling properly festive), a wedge of Christmas pud (or, if like Stacey you hate the fruits involved in a Christmas pud, a slice of Yule log) and enjoy this latest installment of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour!Episode Theme - 'Cool Yule' by Bette MidlerEnd Theme - 'Sleigh Ride' by She & HimPS. Hello, Stacey here to say 2 things;1. Once again I have to apologise for some technical issues; I actually did quite well editing out the zillion-and-one times one of us lost audio entirely and we had to drop the call, but there are still some weird things going on. Occasionally it skips bits of our sentences, and we lose sound on Jenni once or twice, and I apologise. I reckon it's Skynet trying to sabotage me...2. MERRY CHRISTMAS! Thank you to all those who choose to spend their spare time listening to me and my buddies ramble about the things we do/read/see/listen to; I am very thankful for every single listener, and I hope you all have a fun, safe, happy, pressie-filled Christmas, and all the best for the New Year! Have fun and be merry, y'all!!S x

Ahem, guys, I would like to extend my humblest apologies for the following;1. To Stevie himself, for fudging up the time difference between his bit of the US and my bit of the UK, causing him to be hanging about waiting for me for far too long; you're a star for waiting for me!2. To all you lovely listeners for the technical issues at the start of the episode; there's some skipping/crackling, then a whole chunk missing; I lack technical prowess and couldn't fix it, sorry :(3. And finally, not so much an apology as an admission; like a div I kept referring to this episode as episode 18, when it is clearly 19. I blame Stevie for distracting me with his luscious dulcet tones!Whilst I have you here, myself and some lady-buddies are doing a 10k Memory Walk for Alzheimer's Society in September; please go to www.justgiving.com/stacebobandfriends and give anything you can. It's a great cause, and incredibly appreciated.

Well hello there, lovely listeners! Welcome to the 18th installment of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour. In the parlour this month, sippin' on red wine and rumainating on all things pop culture is Geek Syndicate's very own Barry 'Nugecake' Nugent!

So grab a nice summery cocktail (Bahama Mamas never go amiss), find a nice bit of shade and enjoy Episode 18 of The Parlour! Episode Theme - 'Get Loki' by The Avengers End Theme - 'You've Got The Look' by The Lonely Island feat. Hugh Jackman and Kristen Wiig Apologies all; it seems my technical prowess died a death yet again this episode, and so it sounds somewhat like I spent most of this episode underwater. I can only assume that I set up the fancy new mic wrong and somehow ended up recording with the in-built mic in Lappy. *sigh* I am so useless. Profound apologies to all; bear with me, eventually I'll get it!!

It's a long 'un, but a good 'un! Enjoy! Episode Theme - 'Animal Arithmetic' by Jonsi End Theme - 'No One Likes Superman Anymore' by I Fight Dragons *It is worth noting that this was recorded just a day before Microsoft announced all the changes to the XBox One to make it less ridiculous, so expect a little mockery towards Microsoft that can now be disregarded, innit.
