In What We Did Before this week, the show takes a final look at the UK's only museum dedicated to the chemical industry, before it changes forever. Widnes is the birthplace of the chemical industry, and the "Bleach Packers" - possibly the worst job of the 19th century. The display at Catalyst Museum is being overhauled for the first time in over 30 years, so this is a last chance to see/hear it in its current form.

It's nice to know a lot about a little, but sometimes all you can hope for is knowing a little about a lot. The Quizard's Pit is a weekly trivia tumble into the weirdest corners of the known world. Shane Madej and Matt Real, plus the occasional brave guest, dive headfirst into a fact-finding tête-à-tête fueled by curiosity, questionable confidence, and a deep love of learning strange little things. Each episode, they are assigned a universal topic like cats, bicycles, or Denver, then each brings three of the most surprising facts they can dig up.

Here's the block with all dashes removed:

The Good Edit w/ Elle & Kat is stepping into new terrain. Known for comedic recaps balanced with pulling apart how stories get shaped in the edit, the show is adding a new series to its catalogue. It's one built intentionally around the intersection of culture, race, and feminism on reality TV, and how each of those gets manipulated in the cutting room. You'll hear Elle and Kat examine how a confessional, a cutaway, or a well-timed reaction shot can flatten complex women into a producer's storyline, and by the end of each episode, you'll be questioning what you're really watching: the women, or the edit.

Get a preview with the pilot episode, "The Help, Edited: How Reality TV Recycles the Magical Negro and the Mammy." Elle and Kat trace two persistent tropes, the Magical Negro and the Mammy, from classic film into the reality TV edit, where Black women are still cast as the wise helper or warm caretaker in service of someone else's story. With guests Dr. Wendy Talley, LCSW (Thelesse Group) and Kimberly Bryant (This Is Kimberly A. Bryant Podcast). May 22, 2026.
