June 8 - Harry Potter, JK Rowling, Transphobia
Le sigh. Let’s talk about JK Rowling…

June 5 - Rafiki, But I'm a Cheerleader, Carol
I recommend some lesbian films for you to watch and pretty much fail to adequately explain why I like them. They’re good, I promise!

June 4 - Doughnuts, The Read, The Half of It
I talk about the food, flowers, podcasts and movies that have been bringing me joy this Birthday week. Spoiler, some of it is super gay!

June 3 - Birthday, Banshee, Brooklyn Nine-Nine
I talk about being the same age as Jesus and my complicated relationship with cop shows.
A podcast featuring conversations on police abolition here: https://radicalimagination.us/episodes/police-abolition
June 1 - Anna and the Apocalypse, Les Misérables, Little Shop of Horrors
Exhausted by the world, I just talk about musicals for a bit. I do at least two terrible musical impressions. https://blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/
May 29 - Buffy (Again), Grief (Again), M&Ms (Again Again)
I talk in detail about one the saddest episodes of television ever, then I talk about my real experiences of grief, then… I mean, then I talk about chocolate adverts again… Because of course.
May 28 - Obsessive Pop Culture Disorder, Um Actually, Dimension 20
The world is complicated and bad, so I recommend some shows made by excellent people, having fun messing with stuff they like! Shucks!
May 27 - Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, BoJack Horseman, You're the Worst
Today is mainly about mental health and alcoholism! Fun! I also still manage sneak in a bunch of TV shows, because I know what I’m all about.
May 26 - Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Animal Crossing
I’m inexplicably confrontational with the audience again, I effuse about a video game company a LOT and then I officially become part of a backlash! Controversy!
May 25 - Columbo, C. Auguste Dupin, Jonathan Creek
I love detective fiction. I especially love Columbo. I talk about that today. What more do you want from me? This is still not a podcast.
May 22 - Muse, The Simpsons, South Park
Continuing yesterday’s discussion about change, today I talk about things changing and falling out of love. But, like, through the lens of pop culture. As per.
May 21 - Social Interaction, Ladder, Editing
I run into some Corned Beef Hash problems, get interrupted by unexpected noises and try comparing life to TV. Potentially philosophical, definitely rambling.
May 20 - Poirot, Corned Beef Hash, M&Ms (Again)
I just want to talk about my favourite culinary discovery of this lockdown, but get dragged back into the nightmare world of chocolate adverts again… Such is the way my mind works.
May 19 - Hollyoaks, Community, The Guild
Tonight’s episode is late. I apologise, but provide a perfectly good reason why while talking about some of the brightest spots in the lockdown. I’m also parched.
May 18 - Riverdale, Leverage, Buffy
Back to basics as I just talk about TV shows I’ve been watching - one good and one terrible - then one I specifically haven’t been watching. I also plug my own website, which is probably where you are listening to this right now.
May 15 - Seals, Seal, Songs
I had planned on talking about some TV shows I finished watching this week, but instead I get distracted after demanding you watch the best video on the internet and just ramble on about music and podcasts for 20 minutes. These are not scripted.
May 14 - Batman, X-Men, Spider-Man
Just superhero comics for the better part of half an hour. I talk about my own comic book origin stories and recommend some stuff. But just comics. I like comics.
May 13 - Kimmy Schmidt, Fighting Fantasy, Puzzles
We look at sit-coms, cancel culture, toxic friends, choose your own adventure books, video games I haven’t played, complicated Mario origins, a podcast recommendation, me being 32 and a promise of future mysteries! It’s a busy episode.
May 12 - Linda Cardellini, Natalie Morales, Julien Baker
It’s the longest episode yet as I ramble on and on some more about queer representation and mention an avalanche of TV shows. I also make two glaring mistakes as I refer to this as a podcast AND fail to mention the fact that Linda Cardellini is Velma in the live action Scooby Doo films. Twice shame on me.
May 11 - Cartoons, Dinosaurs, Dating
What starts as me reminiscing over my childhood favourites takes a trip through Jurassic Park to end up at my dating life. I regret nothing.
