The best pop culture podcast recorded from a bedroom in Birmingham by a sweary bird (probably). Best served with tea & cake.

Good day to you all and welcome to another fine installment of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This month I am joined by professional animator, fellow podcaster, and lovely bloke Gareth Cavanagh, and boy do we have lots to talk about. I've been to the cinema a million times* since last episode, so we chat about Send Help, Cold Storage, and Hoppers, whilst Gareth is on the TV train and shares his thoughts on Shrinking, Ted Lasso, and the new series of Scrubs. Plus, we get very excited for upcoming Spider-Man shenanigans. Grab a nice hot cuppa and a slice of your favourite cake and enjoy!
*may be a slight exaggeration...

Flippin' spoiling you this month, ay I? It's another Stacey Solo Shorty as a turtley delightful treat for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Day! That's right, TMNT has it's own day thanks to a Los Angeles mayor declaring March 19 as such back in 1993, and you'd better believe this self-proclaimed Senior UK TMNT Correspondent wanted to celebrate. As such, here I am answering such questions as "What do you think of Venus as a concept?", "How would you fix TMNT III?", and "Why the Hell does Krang's robot body look like that?!"
Grab a slice and enjoy!

As a little International Women's Day treat, I bring you another solo Stacey short. This episode, I share my thoughts on The Bride! The (very spoiler-y, you have been warned) thoughts are not very coherent, but then again neither is the movie, so grab a cuppa and enjoy!
Happy International Women's Day to all who celebrate!

Hello there, you absolute legend, and welcome to another episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This month, I am joined by fellow indie podcaster and all-around delightful gent, Justin Scoviak, as we delve into some of the movies and TV we've been enjoying of late. Listen in to find out our thoughts on Can You Keep A Secret?, Companion, Wake Up Dead Man, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, and lots more! All this, plus a trip back in time thanks to Justin's VHS collection.
Whip yourself up a nice hot chocolate, snuggle under a blanket, and enjoy!

Grab a bit of cake and pop a candle in it folks; it's The Parlour's 14th birthday! To celebrate, I recorded a wee solo Stace adventure in which I review The Running Man, Die My Love, and The Housemaid, recommend a few other tip-top podcasts for your audio enjoyment, and share the strangest dream I've ever had. Enjoy!
Thank you so much to everyone who has tuned in and supported the show in any way over the last 14yrs; you're all stars and I'm super grateful that you chose to spend some time with me in The Parlour. Cheers!

(It's possibly too late in the month to say it but also rude not to); Happy New Year lovely listeners! This month I have been snowed in and therefore seen and done very little, so you know what that means; it's time to get the ever delightful Ruth Husko back for a bit of a chinwag. As Ruth still hates films, we dive into such topics as whether Arm & Hammer toothpaste is actually any good, actors who are too actor-y for us to suspend our disbelief, the uncanniness of AI generated human faces, body horror, and the best compliments we've ever received. Grab a nice hot bevvy and curl up under a blanket, and enjoy Ruth and I in your ears x

Good day to you all, and welcome to Episode 176 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour. This month I am joined by Raging Rich and T.A. Shelano of the Middle-Aged Bodcast for a delightful chat about podcasting, men's mental health, and writing two novels. I get very excitable about Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein, Rich is already on the Christmas film train, and T.A. tries to convince me to give Breaking Bad a second try. All this, plus Pluribus, The Chair Company, and...shepherd's pie?! Grab a nice hot drink and enjoy x

OOooooOOOOOoooooOOOO! Welcome one and all to a very special Halloween episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! As well as all the wandering ghosts and scary clowns, I am joined by my very good friends and Never Seen podcast co-hosts, Jenni and Lee, and boy do we have a lot to chat about, spooky season style. Lee climbs atop his soap box for an Alien: Earth rant, Jenni shares her love for They Live, and I lose my mind over a Macaulay Culkin thriller..! All this, plus banned comics, my 31 Day Horror Challenge progress, and the horrors of the perimenopause...
Grab a pumpkin-spiced beverage and enjoy.
