Berri's Couch

From The Little Mermaid to modern adult fiction, join us as we explore three authors that use their autistic traits and views to create amazing fictional novels. We look into the truly nonsensical with Lewis Caroll, the loneliness of societal isolation with Hans Christian Anderson, and a new perspective on dating and relationships with Helen Hoang.
Also, the moon is not cheese.

Comedy is not just for allistics. Stand up comedy is often immediately written off for autistic individuals but now we highlight 2 stand up comics who are successful and can act as proof that we autisitcs are funny people and not just buzzkills.

A look into 3 individuals who have graced the silver screen and have officially been diagnosed with autism. All were officially diagnosed but at different points in their lives and some have even left the acting gig all together. What do we think about them and their career paths along with theoretical questions we'd ask.

To wrap up our month of Muppety goodness, join us as we talk about extra franchise accessories to the Muppet empire. We cover some of our favourite episodes of the original Muppet Show, discuss modern interpretations of the characters and re-adaptations of well-loved spinoffs, and have a quick therapy session about the nightmare that is Bobby Benson's Baby Band. You might even catch a glimpse of Gonzo's non-canon space adventure!

After watching the Muppets Most Wanted we breakdown why that film is the best made muppet movie and why that is and why we are forgiving of flaws when it comes to the Muppets but we don't allow it when it involves any other franchise. There is also a gig economy industry looks after extended (forced) time away from your fanbase to explain why we (Jerri) vibe hard with Kermit in the beginning of this movie.

Muppets + Tim Curry + pirates = A hit right. Wrong! What we ended up getting was the death throws of the movies that became a world wide thought experiment. Join us on the ship as we sail the seas of a movie that has made one of us fall asleep by the end of it. TWICE!

We go back to the turn of a decade to look at the first foray of the Muppets into feature length movies. From cameos to jokes, to even the vaguest of looks at the weirdly deep song lyrics and even brief discussions of what this started that other movies the studio has done polished perfectly.

*Let them fight meme* It's Who's Hellboy is it Anyway where the points don't matter and our opinions are our own. After revisiting the decisions made over 3 films categories have been made up and we try and decide which film is better overall.

It happened so we must discuss it. The rebooted Hellboy that dared to release alongside Endgame (clear view how the studio felt) is it worthy of stand alongside the previous two cinematic releases or does it reek of studio cash grab now that the market seems to favour hero movies.

From weirdly hot Rasputin to Abe Sapien in love; we're back at it again with Hellboy: The Golden Army.
The second and final instalment of Guillermo del Toro's unfinished Hellboy Trilogy, the Golden Army sees us return to our old favourites, new players, and twice the romance! Join us as we explore character growth, miscommunication, Doug Jones, balance, wars, eggs and poetry.
