For an extra special and extra spooky Halloween and horror themed episode we welcome Peter Dunne, the writer and director of the brilliant Petrified podcast - and a man with a lifelong devotion to the artform of horror.

We hear talk of visits to haunted places, contact with the dead, and discuss the best (and worst) horror themed adventures you can spend your hard earned cash on.

And there's also a deep dive into a startling fear of eggs.

The cardboard cut-out shaped hole we have dug grows only deeper, as we learn just how far the obsession runs among the Stall It listeners.

Joe is put in his place regarding the Irish Quaker community (again), and asked for his take on one of history's most talked about conspiracy theories,

Darren decides the life of a vampire might be the one for him, until he realises the impact it might have on his garlic mayonnaise consumption.

And Joe is wondering if hosting a Stall It table quiz might be the next big step in his career.

Joe is loving the glamour of life on a film set, and Darren has been wondering about tall tales he heard from a childhood friend.

Darren recalls his career as an actor in reconstructions of crimes (an international star, no less), and that leads to him reminiscing about his time on a jury and as a key cog in the wheels of justice. This somehow leads to very interesting ideas on how to to truly practice impartial justice in the age of celebrity, when a genuinely unbiased jury is becoming harder to find.

We are reminded of Joe's staggering knowledge of Big Brother history, as he finds himself being drawn back into the world of 24 hour reality TV.

And we delve into the enduring impact of classic horror films (Darren is still shaken by one particular film), and talk about the genius behind what was arguably the first viral marketing campaign - The Blair Witch Project.

At long last the lads must consider the choice between platform shoes and going barefoot, ion quite specific circumstances, as listeners once again ask them the big questions.

There is a decision to be made on living in infamy or anonymity, and a controversy erupts over the location of a missing cardboard cut out of Joe, with one listener feeling aggrieved by a strange turn in events.

While Darren took centre stage at a global event, Joe found himself at the centre of a local storm. A tweet about an acting performance whipped up a tornado of controversy and rage, but Joe feels like people mostly missed his point – while Darren lived out his childhood dreams, with a GoPro attached to his head.

Darren tells us about his magical trip to Manchester United, including safety briefings from UEFA on what to do if he falls over in front of 50 million people; while Joe goes back over a bizarre few days he spent in the storm of a media controversy that nobody seemed to be asking for.

Dealing with loneliness can be difficult - but not for listeners of Stall It who get expert advice from Darren and Joe on how to make new friends, including suggestions like learning the ukulele and getting a pug.

Another option to meet people could be online games, which we see in action as Darren makes a new friend on the podcast after being challenged to a game of Ultimate Team by a listener.

The lads consider whether they would rather bath in baked beans or make a trip to a graveyard alongside a naked Jonjo Shelvey and there's also a discussion on the potential of training a pet skunk, and the best attribute to get from a Star Wars character.

It's a week of celebrity, showbiz and glamour on Stall It, from the roar of the crowd at Vicar Street, to Darren's bow before tens of millions worldwide, and the chance of showbiz glory at a glitzy awards ceremony.

We reflect on our first ever live show at Vicar Street, and discuss everything from the preparation for the show, to worrying that a musical letter to the Unabomber might have come across as "a bit culty". The lads ask if Joe's ma may have ended up being the star of the show, and consider that Eoin's once closely guarded anonymity is now in shreds.

We also take time to celebrate the power of democracy, as shown by the Stall It public voting in-person on some of the biggest issues ever to grace the podcast - and we finally settle "the chicken soup question".

It's a big week for Darren and Joe besides the sold out show at Vicar Street, with Darren off to appear on the pitch at Old Trafford, and the two of them attending a major awards ceremony - which seems like a wonderful idea until they discover they might have to fight for the trophy, if they win one.

There's also tales of glamorous award ceremonies in LA, with the lads chasing Bono and rubbing shoulders with JJ Abrams - and some thought given to the idea of Stall It playing at The Sphere in Vegas.

On the eve of our live show the lads sat down to record a quick bonus episode, but those plans of efficiency were soon dashed by a query about the sandwich credentials of hot dogs and burgers.

There are also choices between paws and hooves, more acts of listener devotion, and a tip off for Joe from Down Under.

As they prepare to take Stall It to the stage on Friday, Darren and Joe reveal what listeners can expect, before getting distracted by custom bowling balls and the rules of playing marbles. Joe longs for just a sip of the original Coca Cola recipe, while the two ponder on the origins of TK Red Lemonade. Darren then reveals one of Joe's more confusing tendencies and it leads into a deep exploration of the inner workings of Joe's mind.

The lads have been signing autographs on charge sheets and drinking full fat Coke at such a rate that they're struggling to get through the bonus episode.

Your questions this week give a new perspective on one of Joe's childhood tales; and even give Joe a chance to gloat about being proven right. There is also an attempt to reignite the chicken soup debate (with pictures kindly included) and Darren's Nice Guy image is shattered by a listener.

There are some interesting nicknames sent in by a listener, and Joe is thrown by having Eoin come to his aid on a quiz question.
