It's time to podcast like it's 1999, as Kate regales Louis with her joy and love for the enduringly beloved action adventure The Mummy, starring Brendan Fraser.

The management would like to add that Louis' strange and unusual multiverse idea is a bizarre machination from a dangerous mind.

Louis got bored over 2020 lockdown and fell in love with the 5th album from Peter Gabriel, So. In this episode, Louis and Kate talk about its creation, its hits and impacts on popular culture, its occasional bawdiness, videos and even its peculiar connection to professional wrestling. 

The management hopes you enjoy the show.

This episode sees Kate select the deeply influential and powerful novel The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. Louis is taken on a powerful journey through the trials and tribulations of Esther Greenwood in 1950's America.

In this episode, Louis has picked the 1993 Sci-fi action film Demolition Man. Louis and Kate run through some plot, mixed in with an important discussion about the real issues that plague 2032 San Angeles, like how do the three seashells work, and how Taco Bell conquered all other chain restaurants. This strange, peculiar film is what is known to Louis as an "ITV classic", in that he first saw it on ITV as a youth. He promises it won't be the last time we get one of these picks either!

The management would like to ask you to enhance your calm before listening. Be well!

In this episode, Kate (and to be fair, Louis as well) gets very excited talking about Prequelle, the 4th album from the Swedish rock band. They talk about the incredibly vivid and humorous world that the group have built over time, how at least half the podcast feels like this album is structurally similar to a musical how much the singer looks like a certain British light entertainer and the absolutely glorious live show. Also, saxophones and tricycles and some fab-u-lous choreo! They even talk about the songs and lyrics, like its a real podcast and everything.

In the 9th episode of this podcast experience, Louis has decided to devolve and bring forward his love of the strange, peculiar yet oh so catchy and enjoyable 5th album from new wave legends Devo. There is talk of potatoes, french fries, doughnuts and stupidly catchy music, as well as slightly more serious subject matter when Louis and Kate touch on a formative event in shaping the existence of the group, and the groups concept of de-evolution itself.

New podcasting subject territories have appeared for Louis and Kate, as they explore Kate's love of the 1986 John Hughes-penned romcom classic Pretty In Pink, starring Molly Ringwald, Jon Cryer and Harry Dean Stanton. The management is delighted indeed, and hopes you will be tickled pink by this episode.

Louis takes us through his love of an album he feels is deeply unappreciated and worthy of your time. Out Of The Silent Planet is a personal favourite, and Kate endeavours to find out what about its melange of sounds reaches Louis' soul. They also talk about why King's X never seemed to conquer the world, and the various themes of the record.

In this episode of the podcast Kate, self-describing as not a big gamer, selects the weird and wonderful world of video game series Yakuza, SEGA's beloved series about Japanese crime syndicates that helpfully remembers that yoked dudes throwing down in the streets means nothing without the ability to also solve the dilemmas of local residents and run a real estate business. The series also occasionally leans into genuine absurdity, as we find out. 

The management of the podcast thanks you for your patronage, and hopes you enjoy another episode, perhaps with a good lunch.

Louis takes us through his love of the 1994 action vehicle Speed, one of the biggest hits of its year. Who knew a bomb on a bus could be the catalyst for such a thrill ride? Well, the people who financed the movie certainly did! This episode not only has lots of fun facts about the movie, it also features a dramatic reading of song lyrics and a horrendous Keanu Reeves impression. The management tried to talk Louis out of cutting it, but he held his ground.
