July 31, 2016 18:30 - 2 hours - 121 MBWe've gotten to the part of the 24hr podcast where Barry & I have given up on any semblence of podcast-hosting professionalism, leading to two very different but equally interesting guest appearances.

Joining Stacey in The Parlour for a spot of booze and chinwagging is her good friend, telly extra and music making guy, Neil Morris! Neil and Stacey seem to suffer from tangent-itis this episode, as their chats on Captain America: Civil War, Jungle Book and Bad Neighbours 2 somehow end up being about asking stupid questions, not fitting TV audition briefs even though you clearly do and accidentally poking your eye til it spar...
Podcast In A Half Shell - Episode 11: That's Just Fish Dirt
May 14, 2016 11:54 - 1 hour - 86.2 MBAfter having run out of films to talk about, Duncan and I have turned to the 90's Image comic run for this episode of Podcast In A Half Shell!

January 27, 2016 20:21 - 1 hour - 79.7 MBYou guys, I am so sorry for this episode! I'll explain more at the start of the show itself but basically this episode can be classed as a Technological NIGHTMARE. The sound quality is really bad and nothing I tried could save it. And then I got too tired/cross/sad to try anything else or re-record it. So, if you make it to the end of this episode, I owe you a cookie.* This episode sees Rich return to The Parlour to talk The Revenant, The Hateful Eight, The Peanuts Movie, The Voices and other...

As it turns out, I'm much more precious about the 80's TMNT than I thought, Duncan is much more precious about the 2003 series than he thought, and we both suck at voice acting... On top of all this, we weigh up the pros and cons of sauerkraut on pizza, get distracted by unnecessary Shredder crotch shots, and go on tangents galore due to...
