Podcast In A Half Shell E024: Brick Cage
Tuesday Sep 30, 2025
Tuesday Sep 30, 2025
It may have been 2 years since we last recorded, but that doesn't mean Duncan and I have lost our Podcast In A Half Shell touch! (And by that I mean you can expect our usual brand of tangent-filled Turtles waffling, specifically this time on Tales of the TMNT). Enjoy!
Big old spoilers for Episodes 1-6 of Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (plus some minor spoilers for the IDW comics*)
Music from the show by Matt Mahaffey
*I am aware that I am a bit wrong in my description of these comics, but it was purposeful so as to not ruin too much for Duncy!

Just a little note here to apologise for the sound in this one; there's some clicking that was down to the creaking of our terrible/old kitchen chairs and table. Lesson learned: no more kitchen podcasting!

Tuesday Mar 25, 2025
Hello there you gorgeous listener you, and welcome to another episode of Stacey's Pop Culture Parlour! This month, I am joined by first time Parlour patron and lifelong nerdy type, Benjamin Connell, who chats with me about his new tabletop RPG inspired by the books of Brian Jacques, Heroes Of The Abbey. We also discuss some of our recent favourite movies, such as Companion, Heart Eyes, and M3GAN, as well as taking a little trip to Paradise and praising The Penguin. And, of course, I am talking about Severance again (I will stop talking about Severance when Severance stops being The Absolute Tits, so basically, never).
Pop the kettle on and enjoy!
(And for those also bothered by my terrible memory; the Cristin Milioti show I mentioned was Made For Love, and the Georgina Campbell movie was indeed called TIM)
