July 20, 2024 Why did you watch Pet Sematary episode 19 part 2
Sometimes... dead is better. Cathy is still in a bad mood and taking it out on David by torturing him with his greatest pet peeve: people making stupid decisions in movies. Surprise appearance from Orville the duck, and see if you can spot the point when Cathy thought David said something incredibly rude. Answers on a postcard! Or better yet, on our social media:

April 09, 2024 Why did you watch Candyman episode 18 part 2
Who can make a podcast, sprinkle it with laughs, cover it in detail and split it into halves?
The Candy Man! Oh, Dave and Cath can...
Cathy has ulterior motives this episode. And several notes:
We talk a lot about racism in this episode. If you're not in the mood to listen to two white academics complain about racism then maybe give it a miss.
If you'd like to learn more about excited delirium, or the Reasonable Man defence (which Cathy confusingly calls the man on the bus defence), we recommend the following podcasts:
Things Fell Apart - The Most Mysterious Deaths (S2e1)
More Perfect - Mr. Graham and the Reasonable Man

Music is 'Helen's Theme', performed by Michael Riesman and The Western Wind, written by Philip Glass.

Who can make a podcast, sprinkle it with laughs, cover it in detail and split it into halves?
The Candy Man! Oh, Dave and Cath can...
Cathy has ulterior motives this episode, once they finish laughing at the cat knocking over a wooden board and scaring itself senseless. And several notes:

February 04, 2024 Why Did You Watch Roadhouse part 2
The thrilling conclusion of our origin stories! Cathy officially pitches a movie to David that inspired the podcast in the first place. It goes about as well as it did the first time, even with the most ridiculous movie quote of all time.

February 04, 2024 Why Did You Watch Roadhouse part 1
Origin stories! Cathy officially pitches a movie to David that inspired the podcast in the first place. It goes about as well as it did the first time...
Note: Cathy would like to make it clear that when she describes what women want in films, she is talking from the point of view of producers, and not from her own point of view. Which should be obvious given her taste in films...

September 03, 2023 Why did you watch a Nightmare on Elm Street episode 16 part 2
Welcome to the conclusion of our impromptu musical episode where David and I inexplicably sing our way through this 80s classic horror. While David is not convinced by the film, he seems delighted with Cathy's singing.
*Trigger warning*
There is some talk of child abuse in this episode which we've tried to be as sensitive as possible about but if you're not up for that then maybe give this one a miss. Also the singing is pretty dreadful too.
