Gifted to us from a very kind Canadian follower called Elizabeth, we decided to sit down and give our thoughts about some of the worst candy we've ever tried. We'll still come visit though.

Friends is an American television sitcom that's been forcibly shoved down our throats for what seems like 50 years. I'm a fan of Friends and don't mind telling you that I was obsessed with it as a teenager but have come to alter my position in the last decade as some of its flaws have become more and more alarmingly evident. So here we are as we chit chat about the idea of continuing to enjoy a TV show which is so awkwardly stuck in the past.

The Simpsons is an American animated sitcom and the longest running sitcom in history. You'd be hard pushed to find someone who hasn't heard of or seen an episode of The Simpsons but while it's so ingrained in culture, does anyone really give a shit about it? I would've once considered myself a big fan but it occurred to me recently that I haven't thought about it in any significant way for a long time. I only really considered it again after watching an episode of Big Mouth which by osmosi...

As a crossy who tells fart jokes on YouTube, I have absolutely no business discussing an individual like Marina Abramović. So here we go. Born in war-torn former Yugoslavia, Abramović would explode in the art world some 30 years later and become one of the most fascinating and well-known conceptual and performance artists to ever exist. I first came across Marina in the clip below which my roommates and I barely made sense of as we discovered it on an early version of Facebook. From there I would dip my toe into exploring her work but am I...

Hot Money is a British television crime film released in 2001 which is widely considered (in Olympia's view only and literally no one else's) to be the greatest motion picture ever made. God it's good. Right here's the setup, there's these 3 cleaners who work at a Bank of England incineration plant who hatch a plan to steal old banknotes by hiding them in their knickers. It's absolutely essential viewing before listening to the pod and there will be a pop-quiz to clarify that you've seen it.

The Wizard of Oz is a 1939 American musical fantasy film (originally released to mediocre ticket sales) starring a 16-year-old Judy Garland in the iconic role of Dorothy Gale. In a similar vein to Hocus Pocus, this movie would impress upon an infant Lymp and inspire Wicked Witch of the West attire for several fancy dress moments in school, long before I wouldn't dare for fear of being harassed. I think you'd be hard pushed to find a movie with more cultural significance or one more influent...

Hi guys!
Sorry for the lack of video this week - we’ve been working hard on our latest parody video and it’s looking GREAT so far! Any guesses as to who Nova’s playing?
Hoping to have this parody up for Sunday and then gonna be shooting a new PO Box video next week so will be back to normal then. Olympia’s Full Of It will be live tomorrow night as scheduled too!
Hope you’re all doing alright anyway. Look forward to this video as soon as we can get it to you.

Lady in the Lake is the title of the fifth episode of Netflix's second volume of Unsolved Mysteries. As a transitional pod from spooky season, join me this evening as we discuss a lady called JoAnn Romain, whose body was discovered in a lake more than 2 months after mysteriously vanishing from her local church following an evening mass. While her kids maintain that she was murdered, police decided that she simply left the church, crossed several large roads, walked down an icy embankment in...

If you ever wondered what it takes to return one of Charmaine Diamond White's RATTIEST wigs back to it's former glory then this video is for you. In this video Nova covers each step she takes to reinvigorate this poor wig in a tutorial-style video, although none of us are really sure why she bothers when Char will likely return it back to it's hideous, matted state in about a week or so.

Hocus Pocus is a 1993 American dark fantasy film starring Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker. It would impress upon a young Olympia with the full force of a Soviet freight train. From the fanciful flight of a beautiful SJP singing to the children of Salem astride a sexy broom in the moonlit sky to Bette Midler's giant teeth and Kathy Najimy barking like an Alsatian, the whole thing is Halloween perfection. This ep features a salacious story about how I secretly broke my mother's garden broom trying ...

The Turn of the Screw is an 1898 horror novella that, akin to Dracula inspiring vampire fiction, would lay the groundwork for countless ghost stories involving creepy children in big old mansions. I've recording a reading of the original text here on Patreon if you'd like to hear a fireside rendition of the original source material. For now though, let's get into a casual discussion about it.

As a companion piece to tonight's episode of Full Of It and to fully immerse ourselves in the spooky season, I present a reading of Henry James' 1898 horror novella The Turn of the Screw. It's a dense, Victorian yarn and as such gets wordy af in a lot of places, but the atmospheric build should keep us all engrossed in this classic ghost story.
This work has inspired many adaptations over the years but most recently was the basis for the Netflix miniseries The Haunting of Bly Manor.<...

With the release of his first novel Carrie in 1973, Stephen King would change the landscape of horror forever. He is perhaps known as the greatest spooky fiction writer of all time, earning him the moniker of "King of Horror".

The Addams Family is a fictional household that sprung into public consciousness when its original comic-strip format was worked into a sitcom in the 60s. Following the success of the show, it spawned (most famously) 2 live-action movies in '91 and '93. It's something that's always been on my peripheral but seems to me to not hold its rightful place in popular culture, so let's get into it as part of spooky pod season.
