You Know What I Like...?

In the three years that we've been doing this podcast, we haven't done "The Podcast Thing" of using it as a platform for our other creative ventures. WELL WE'RE FINALLY THERE! It's time to talk about Mark's comic: Cream Maid.

Please back Cream Maid on Kickstarter:

In this episode, we talk about the secret origins of Cream Maid, the many advantages of collaboration and the need for the normalisation of diversity.

It happened: we finally quit the podcast and went on a walkabout. Everything became far too much and we decided that we need to reach back into musical theatre history to see a production of Broadway legend Stephen Sondheim's Company.

In this episode, we talk about the accuracy of recollections, the importance of a gendered perspective, the fallibility of memory, Mel and Sue vs Patti LuPone and the accessibility of theatre in a general sense.

IT'S LONDON, BABY.

On the daily You Know What I Like jog, Mark started to uncharacteristically falter. One inspirational speech from Sophie later, the two friends found themselves trailed by a group of children, who they lead up to the top of a flight of stairs; everyone celebrated and then went on to win a group championship boxing match together.

To be perfectly honest: none of that actually happened. Instead, Mark and Sophie sit down to talk about the entirety of the Rocky franchise.

In this episode, we talk about positive masculinity, franchise fatigue, sex with robots and how Adrian's charisma measures up to a sack of potatoes.

Make sure to send Sophie your thoughts on Creed II (maybe).

Hello. My name is Mark. I'm in a coma and this is my story. After being forcibly connected to the beta version of the Dream Machine, I was transported to another world - a parallel world - where magic is real. Yeah - I know - stay with me.

My name is Sophie. I was once the Apostle - now I'm a convicted traitor and tomorrow I die.

Actually, instead of all that complication, let's talk about The Longest Journey.

In this episode, we talk about what makes a good retcon, effective world building, our favourite sidekicks and Mark gets way too personal.

Just as we were recording this episode, a girl in our sorority decided to get a perm. We tried to talk her out of it because curls weren't a good look for her, but she went ahead and did it anyway. When she entered the wet t-shirt contest, she was completely hosed down, lost all of her curls and then we all decided to sit down and watch Legally Blonde.

In this episode, we talk about the brazen nature of 2000s fashion, the wishy-washy nature of LGBT acceptance and debate whether the "romcom" is suitably named.

What? Like, it’s hard?

We hope that you're not Halloween'ed out yet, because we have a discussion of some wonderful Wicca women to share with you as we talk about Charmed.

In this episode, we discuss the inconsistencies that come from an eight-year television run, the motivating factors behind a reboot and, of course, Leprechauns.

The pill has just been invented. Miniskirts are hitting high-street shops. And top-agent Barbarella heads out into the spaceways to...be coerced into sex by a burly alien?

In this episode, we discuss the foibles and shortcomings of the most sexually liberated woman in space during the 1960s: Barbarella.

And if that's not enough to whet your appetite, we made sure to make the natural left-turn to discuss...the Vietnam war?! That's right - it's the 1991 film: Dogfight.

It's time for a discussion about gender politics in cinema!

For this month's study, Sophie and Mark took on the insurmountable task of trying to analyse one of the most popular, but immensely complex, young-adult fantasy stories in modern times: His Dark Materials.

They absolutely failed to cover everything, so make sure to send them angry tweets about everything that they missed.

In this episode, Mark and Sophie finally reveal the details of the story of how they travelled into the future to discover a race of subterranean creatures. After that, they travelled into the past, got rid of the annoying bugs flittering around and rode the sound of thunder back to the present.

After that epic tale, they also find the time to talk about the time-tastic series of books: The Chronicles of St. Mary's.

Just don't ask them to explain Primer.

Long may Richard III reign.

On that fateful day, February 1st 2018, Sophie wrote up an interactive quiz for Mark about Greek Mythology. Little did she know how its effects would ripple up and down the timeline of his life with the forfeit that ensued. People laughed; people mocked; people offered him a career touring with Beyoncé.

Months passed and everything eventually returned to normal.

Now, just when she thought it was safe to go back into podcasting.
