Are You There, Pod?

New Year, new series! This month we’re tackling the first books in two iconic teen series, starting with Ann M Martin’s Baby-Sitters Club! The gang discusses the history and the future of the BSC, Blake introduces a new segment, Jessica tells the story of Dwayne, and Josh shares a VERY ADULT STORY (NSFW, folks!).

Join us next episode as we discuss Sweet Valley High #1: Double Love.

Merry (almost) Christmas, fam! This ep were talking Colleen O’Shaughnessy McKenna’s Merry Christmas, Miss McConnell! Get in the holiday spirit as the gang talks Hallmark Christmas movies, Christmas raps, Christmas trees, Christmas skits, and ... the opioid epidemic? Jessica and Josh talk class politics and Blake drops the hottest Christmas jam since the Mariah Carey classic.

Join us for our next book, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever by Barbara Robinson (or just watch the movie, it’s free on YouTube and stars a baby Fairuza Balk!)

Happy Black Friday, fam! We’re delivering a special ep on this most American of Holidays for you to listen to as you’re fighting over the last discounted Notting Hill blu-ray (you’re welcome). This episode we discuss Richie Tankersley Cusick’s early 90s Point Horror effort, *The Mall*. The gang talks dream mall jobs, hot boy names, undercover teens, and Joss Whedon. Josh does some great visual bits, Blake finds a joke format that always works, and Jessica obviously misses Gadzooks!

Join us next month as we get in the holiday spirit and talk Merry Christmas, Miss McConnell by Colleen O’Shaughnessy McKenna.

Warning: This ep we’re talking Norma Klein’s Beginner’s’ Love—a book that tackles teen sex, birth control, abortion, and hot doctor-ladies, so the content may get a bit explicit at times.

Join us as the gang talks gettin’ horny at Simon & Garfunkel concerts, a dystopian six-day work week, and Fudgemania. Blake and Josh sing an S&G medley, and Jessica demands a better NYT app (get on it, Michael Barbaro!).

Join us next episode as we discuss Richie Tankersley Cusick’s The Mall.

It's time for a bonus bananas Halloween episode, and this time we discuss R.L. Stine's The Babysitter with special guest Crystal Lane! Josh spends way too much time trying to think of a spooky name and can't seem to say the word "tank," Crystal reveals how her ninth birthday was ruined by President Bush, and Jessica drank three glasses of wine and seems a little confused. Blake and Josh try to do fractions, while the gang ruins Blake's attempt at a bit. This episode's tangents include Corn Pop, Esther Williams, Doc Martens, Swatch Watches, and the horror of renting VCRs in the 80s.
