Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour

Stace & Barry In The Morning ~ Episode 3

Well jolly good morning to you, nerdy folk! Welcome to Episode 3 of Stace & Barry In The Morning; your slice of Saturday morning silliness (best served with a lovely giant bowl of cereal)! This episode, we struggle to hold it together as we spend entirely too long Cockney-ising Arthurian legends, I make unimpressive trumpet sounds and we hate Frodo... All this plus some Saturday Morning Cartoons, Barry's Pick of The Fortnight, another of my Moments of Geek and a special post-credits outtake involving pigeon barneys... Enjoy!

Episode 71: Are You Being A Sarcastic?

Hello there, lovely folk of the internet; welcome to Episode 71 of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This month, my hubby and general geeky gent Rich Taylor is saving you from having to sit through a solo Stace episode by joining me to chat.

We're a bit tired and ill-prepared, and as such we ramble about an awful lot of pop culture goodness, including Dunkirk, Peter Parker: Spider-Man, sneaking muffins into the cinema, GLOW, Secret Empire, Double Decker bites and more comics than you can shake a stick at! (What a bizarre expression...) We also take a turn for the far-too-early-Halloweeny as we review (supposed) scary movies The Invitation, XX and Would You Rather.

All this, plus our official Chris Charts!

Enjoy!

Episode 70: The Hat Is Not Working (A Spidey Special)

What ho, lovely listeners, and welcome to another special episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This time I'm joined by Friend Of The Show and Spider-Man superfan Sam Harrison for "Sam & Stacey's Spectacular Spider-Man Special!" That's right, like every other podcast, I'm doing a Spidey special because HOT DOG how could I not?! Here is your obligatory MASSIVE SPOILER WARNING.

Sam & I bring all the important stuff to this discussion, like opinions! Theories! Questions! Tangents! And more! Cor!

End Theme - 'Monumental Meltdown'

All songs are from the Spider-Man Homecoming OST by Michael Giacchino

Podcast In A Half Shell Episode 18: Trippin' In His En Suite

Oi oi, it's Podcast In A Half Shell time again! This episode, Duncan and I made the minor mistake of thinking that Cartoon All Stars To The Rescue might actually contain some Turtles, and the rather major mistake that Turtle Tunes might be an interesting watch... It's madness afoot as we try to understand what anyone was thinking when making both of these shows, whether the makers of Cartoon All Stars had done none of or ALL OF the drugs (we genuinely can't tell) and why Leonardo has a rowboat... All this, plus we learn each others' middle names!

Cowabunga!

Stace & Barry In The Morning ~ Episode 1

Good morning geeks, and welcome to the inaugural episode of Stace & Barry In The Morning! Join your titular hosts, Stacey Taylor & Barry Nugent, as they bring you a delicious and nutritious* nerdy breakfast in bed. Grab a brew and enjoy!

*Nutritional value may be a lie.

Episode 69: A Thumb & Seven Eighths

Good morrow, lovely listeners, and welcome to Episode 69 (ooh er!) of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Joining me in The Parlour this month are delightful regulars; my rather splendid husband, Rich, and our good friend and faux-Cockney, Phil!

We're pretty much all over the shop in this episode as I suffer with sleep deprivation whilst the whiskey's a-flowin' for Rich & Phil. We talk about Baby Driver, how much Rich adores the Oh Hello live show, Phil & Rich's thoughts on the return of Twin Peaks, and how little I know about pop culture... All this, plus me not accepting the concept of Blood Drive and having a miniature meltdown over it, Rich watching Adam Sandler movies on purpose, and Phil suffering through Alien Covenant...

Enjoy!

Episode Theme - 'FM' by Steely Dan

End Theme - 'Shadow' by Chromatics

WARNING: Mild spoilers within, and some pretty tinny sound, sorry! It was hot as balls when we reocrded so we had the windows open, and removing the sound of the M6 wafting through reduced the quality a bit.

Episode 68: Holy Hera! A Wonder Woman Special

Ls, Gs, NBs and all in between, welcome to another special episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! Wonder Woman is out and IT IS GOOD; listen in as Parlour regular and flippin' top tits lady Jenni Newman and I get thoroughly over-excited by this glorious movie. Fair warning; here be spoilers!

Enjoy!

Episode Theme - 'Wonder Woman's Wrath' by Rupert Gregson-Williams (WW OST)

End Theme - 'No Man's Land' by Rupert Gregson-Williams (WW OST)

HUGE apologies to all you lovely listeners and to Jenni for this episodes sound issues; for the most part the episode is fine, but there's occasional echo, occasional muffle-ness, and an obvious delay in spots that causes a little talking over each other. I tried to edit aruond it to keep it audible but in some bits it was impossible. I am crap at technology!

Episode 67: Akin To A Wednesday

Holy mother of pearl, folks, it's a Dredgeland Takeover this month! That's right, John Dredge and Andy Harland have arrived at The Parlour looking to do some reviews, except I'm not 100% sure they know what 'pop culture' actually is... Andy reviews Argos, John reviews a car park, we organise a Tiny Paul Rudd Party, Alec Guinness and Yoda turn up, and somehow, despite barely talking pop culture at all, we spoil the ending to Rogue One! All this, plus such exciting games as 'Guess The Fish', '1 2 3 3 2 1' and 'Which Musical Have You Been To?' and everything going a little bit awry!

Enjoy!

Episode Theme - 'Star Trek Theme' by Leonard Nimoy

End Theme - 'Bellbottoms' by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion

Editor's Note: Sorry about my hayfever sniffs (I edited out as many as I could!) and also this was recorded way before the Guardians special I released last week, hence my reluctance to spoil as the film was very new at the time!

Episode 66: Lightning Bonce

Alright motherfluffers, it's BONUS EPISODE TIME! Joining me for this MASSIVELY SPOILERY Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Special is delightful gent and Awesome Comics Podcast-er, Vince Hunt! We both decided that it simply wouldn't do to just not talk about how great the lastest Marvel instalment is, so we joined forces to talk about all things Guardians! We get all emotional regarding SPOILERS, giggle about SPOILERS and...you know what, just give it a listen, yeah?

Seriously though, SPOILERS AHOY.

Episode Theme - 'Mr Blue Sky' by ELO

End Theme - 'The Chain' by Fleetwood Mac
