Skin
April 05, 2023 17:00 - 31 minutes - 21.6 MBSKIN Your epidermis is showing! It's season 2 and Em gives us the skinny on skin, which sounds gross because IS gross. Acne, blackheads, sebum, hair, smelly bacteria - all gross! Also featuring less gross topics like; a certain record breaking town in Iowa, the lady who itched WAY too much (which is arguably still gross) and cute ways to remember the names of nerve endings! If you’ve got an itch for loose skin-related puns, this pore sentence has barely got you covered. Welcome back! To S...
May
May 30, 2022 20:00 - 31 minutes - 21.6 MBMAY Its that time of the monthly month, its the month of May! This month Kait promises 9000% less Roman history, a terse glance at the zodiac and virtually no star wars references. Mostly because of ADHD whims, BUT we can also pretend that its because May = flowers. So dig in to our chat about lily of the valley and hawthorn. It somehow involves Jesus, pilgrims, faeries, and Manitoulin island and contains medium levels of dismissive sass towards Victoria Day, Adam Dollard and the French mi...
The Pied Piper of Tucson
May 01, 2022 22:00 - 42 minutes - 28.9 MBTHE PIED PIPER OF TUSCON Once upon a time there was a poor, little orphan boy who had plenty of money, but felt deeply insecure about himself..so obviously he decided to murder a bunch of women. Em shares the story of Charles Howard 'Smitty' Schmid, Jr., an inexplicably charismatic, sub-standard Elvis impersonator with pedophilic tendencies, who somehow convinced local teens to party with him, young girls to hand their paycheques over to him, and naive accomplices to commit impulsive murde...
Selfies
April 27, 2022 20:00 - 32 minutes - 22.2 MBSELFIES The tools and skills needed to create a self-portrait have changed over the years, as technology has allowed humans to proliferate them in extreme magnitude. So like, why are we so obsessed with ourselves? Em talks about the awkward social cues surrounding selfies, the vapid obsession, despite the commentary of shame and disdain about them, and general acceptance of our inherent need for social validation. We’ve got a history of selfies and selfie-devices, famous selfies, a brief n...
April
April 05, 2022 19:00 - 40 minutes - 27.6 MBAPRIL Spring has sprung..so that means an earthy, heirloom mix of lady gods, and religiously restrictive-dieting in honour of 1 god’s special dudes. We got horned zodiacs, basic gems, basic flowers, basic pranks and incredibly elaborate eggs. A very brief and reductive history of Passover, Lent/Easter and 2022’s Ramadan, as well as an attempt to untangle the syncretized goddesses of the ancient world. We sprinkled a couple of April-related references throughout..can you find all the easter...
Amnesia
March 29, 2022 18:00 - 33 minutes - 23 MBAMNESIA WHO? WHAT? WHY? WHERE? Amnesia was (probably) first introduced into your consciousness via soap operas.. but how does it really work? Em nerds out on neuroscience in this sister-episode to MEMORY. We talk about some of the different types, causes and some famous cases. We’ve got constant references to the movie Memento, shitty drawing experiments, a doctor being kind of a prick about handshakes, sad journal entries and more!

March
March 07, 2022 19:00 - 33 minutes - 22.9 MBMARCH Ides that time of the month again. Polish your bloodstones, quit creeping on the daffodills and bust out your fancy dolls for their annual tea party…cuz Kait is MARCHing in with more calendar-based factoids and history bits. We’ll go on a quick tour of Mars in ancient astronomy, just enough to gather that humans have always had a thing for recycling IP and rebooting superhero franchises. We’ll learn who to blame for all the terrible March-related things - like the Romans for separat...
PEZ
March 01, 2022 19:00 - 29 minutes - 20.2 MBPEZ - its the candy that everyone loves to never eat. How did this chalky and underwhelming pastille become a ubiquitous and enduring collectible? What does PEZ even mean? What do a witch, JFK and Seinfeld have in common? Em dispenses all the answers to these questions and more! Kait demonstrates the contrarian nature of pez appreciation; nostalgic love simultaneous with a harsh critique of the candy and it’s avid collectors. Join us as we unwrap, carefully piece together and share the story...
Memory
February 15, 2022 19:00 - 44 minutes - 30.7 MBMEMORY Em explains how our brains organize information and recall the stuff..y’know..err uhh that thing that happened that one time with the stuff. Its our first interactive episode, so check out our instagram for this episode ( https://www.instagram.com/p/CaFhb_7J2VD/?utm_medium=copy_link ) to do a memory experiment along with us. Kait shares childhood memories and proves she has a MIND OF STEEL, that can not be tricked!! (But also, probably, definitely be tricked). Remember, we’ve got fl...
JANUARY + FEBRUARY
February 08, 2022 21:00 - 58 minutes - 40 MBJANUARY + FEBRUARY Do you like historical trivia? Kait sure does, and this episode she unloads two whole months worth of calendar-based factoids. It is a bumpy crash course through ancient Rome, Sun Signs, Birthstones, as well as other traditions and observances…to prove that human history is a lot of people making stuff up and/or editing it to fit later.

Jeremy Bentham PART TWO
January 31, 2022 22:00 - 44 minutes - 30.3 MBJEREMY BENTHAM - PART TWO This episode Em heads right into the enduring spectacle of Jeremy Bentham’s death wish. In lieu of flowers or funeral, the gentleman kindly requested that his friends attend an extra special, extravisceral “celebration of life”, provided custom VIP/BFF merch and RSVP’d his corpse for weekends at Bernie’s in perpetuity. Though he meticulously planned his immortalization, this undertaking was purely theoretical and posthumous, and so his already grotesque plans wand...
Jeremy Bentham PART ONE
January 22, 2022 05:00 - 24 minutes - 16.8 MBJEREMY BENTHAM’S HEAD - PART ONE In this episode, Em tells us the life story of guy named Jeremy Bentham..but stay tuned for a follow-up “post-mortem” episode about his famous severed head. We’ll learn that being a wealthy man in the Georgian era afforded such things as - getting a college degree as baby, adding your own words to the lexicon and being mildly weird and eccentric without consequence. His contributions included progressing Utilitarianism as a mode of thought, planting the we...
The Calendar
January 11, 2022 04:00 - 40 minutes - 28.2 MBTHE CALENDAR Fact: it is a new calendar year. That is…fine…but perhaps while drifting through the relentless experience of temporality, you take note of that scheduling grid on the wall (or device) and ask -the heck is a calendar anyway? How do we know what day it is? Why did we even agree to this? Kait attempts to serve up a brief history of western timekeeping..a choice cut of the Roman Empire, marinated in Christianity, some roughly chopped Norse gods and a pinch of kosher salt. We gri...
Shirley Temple PART TWO
January 05, 2022 19:00 - 24 minutes - 16.6 MBSHIRLEY TEMPLE - PART TWO Enter 2022 and part two on Shirley Temple! The sensational child star retired, and while its surely tempting (pause for laughter) to assume she’d just fade away, she remained in the public eye for the rest of her life. Em picks up where we left off; her post-childhood career in film, diplomacy, marriage and motherhood. Em reminds us how she really feels about Graham Greene, and Kait openly declares her love of the ubiquitous and eponymous mocktail. We’ve got shitt...
Tamagotchi
December 22, 2021 22:00 - 33 minutes - 23.3 MBTAMAGOTCHI Beep beeple beep. What sound does a neglected keychain baby make? Come and distract yourself through Omicronstmas with another relic from decades past…the humble Tamagotchi! Despite most kids burying theirs in the back of junk drawer after raising a few underwhelming “kuchitamatchi” well before the days of Y2k, Bandai has continued laying the alien-egg babies to an insatiable fanbase since the late 90s. (Did you know it spawned SEVERAL tv shows?) Em leads us down memory lane (wh...
The California Raisins' Claymation Christmas
December 16, 2021 04:00 - 37 minutes - 26 MBTHE CALIFORNIA RAISINS CLAYMATION CHRISTMAS ’Tis Christmas time, and for us that means memories of digging through cryptically labeled beta-max tapes, in search of the one which held the crown jewel of 80’s-kid Christmas specials - Will Vinton’s Claymation Christmas Celebration...with special guests The California Raisins! Reflecting back, we finally asked ourselves: Why were anthropomorphic raisins famous? Who created them and why? WHYY? (Apart from claymation being unequivocally rad) the...

Shirley Temple PART ONE
December 06, 2021 01:00 - 40 minutes - 27.7 MBSHIRLEY TEMPLE - PART ONE Em welcomes us all to the Golden Age of Hollywood’s lax child labour laws. Whilst the Great Depression gave the public an appetite for tawdry distractions, some film producers figured getting babies to perform weird, sexy, adult stuff was just the ticket, so they wrangled up some toddlers, and a child star was born! We’ll learn that the secret to some of that old-timey movie-magic was sensory deprivation iceboxes (or fun, pranks like telling children their mom die...
Animal Crossing
November 29, 2021 03:00 - 50 minutes - 34.9 MBANIMAL CROSSING Did you spend most of the pandemic giving fake money to a racoon-dog? Was the last museum you visited curated by an owl? Did you celebrate your last birthday with a small group of animals who filled a piñata with cupcakes? If you don’t know what we’re talking about, please continue enjoying your productive life. If however you are fluent in animalese, or if tree-shaking, rock-hitting, beach-combing is part of your daily grind..then get your dodo codes ready as we take a bri...
The moon!
November 10, 2021 23:00 - 39 minutes - 26.9 MBTHE MOON This week we literally talk shit on the moon. Em waxes on some good ol’ moon facts and names all 12 whiteys on the moon before we gravitate out of orbit and phase into moon-truther tangents like Lunaria, Stanley Kubrick, space-nazis and holograms! Halloween is officially over, so talk of werewolves and child murder will be eclipsed by weird cassette tapes from the 80s, space diapers, a quick nod to a classic Mr. Show skit..and more! Earthlings blow up earth things! https://youtu....
The Villisca Axe Murders
October 31, 2021 05:00 - 43 minutes - 29.7 MBTHE VILLISCA AXE MURDERS Today is Halloween..so that means its time for more senseless child murders! Em asks who murdered the Moore family of 6 and their 2 houseguests? Thanks to the local Iowa true crime enthusiasts of 1912, and the utter brutality of the crime we may never know. There are plenty of theories and questions - How did they do it? What was their motive? WHY WAS THERE BACON? Kait is pretty sure it was the brother and that scheming Mary next door, but she also kept referencing...
CANDY MAN
October 20, 2021 17:00 - 47 minutes - 32.7 MBCANDYMAN Kait talks about that time when 1974’s father-of-the-year thought an urban legend was real, and would make the perfect cover for insurance fraud and filicide. Find out how much cyanide and depravity it takes to murder a small human child who trusts you. We don’t get into those other candymans (candymen?), but we’ve got ambivalent thoughts about the death penalty, half-hearted attempts at math and enough of wilhelms screams to fill yer boots. Remember to check your kid’s halloween ...

October 13, 2021 03:00 - 27 minutes - 19.1 MBREAL PARANORMAL AUDIO RECORDINGS - LIVE FROM HAMILTON ABANDONED INSANE ASYLUM This week we recorded on the grounds of a historic Victorian-gothic building, Century Manor (formerly the East House of the Hamilton Insane Asylum). The building is all boarded up and covered in teenage graffiti, but if you want to see peeled paint and empty rooms there are several “urban explorer” blogs that tour the inside.

GHOST LAKE?!
October 04, 2021 03:00 - 31 minutes - 21.5 MBGHOST LAKE?! IS IT A LAKE? yes. IS IT A GHOST? no. IS IT A GHOST LAKE?! Em tells the disastrous tale of the strange phenomenon which caused absolute devastation in Cameroon almost 40 years ago, and learn of its inevitable return. A mysterious fog that wipes out all living things in its path. Then we veer off that path and end up talking about juggalos for some reason. BONUS: spoooooky sound effects!

This week K will ruin your best bits of party trivia by explaining their less splashy origins. We’ll learn that; picnics aren’t racist (but 1940’s linguists kind of were), you probably don’t understand morse code, and how a measurement of common sense became known as a euphemism for beating your wife. Some phrases covered: Don’t let the cat out of the bag Ring around the rosie 500 words for snow F.U.C.K./S.O.S. ...
