FF 009 - Kristy and the Kidnapper Oct 05, 2020

Show notes

A pulse-pounding adventure full of elite haxors, Knights Templar, and secret service shootouts, Kristy and the Kidnapper is Ellen Miles’ most ambitious and exciting work yet, and the boys couldn’t be more eager to explore its hidden depths. Except that Jack’s in a bad mood, and Tanner’s not helping. Also, a plea to listeners: Get a cat. Just get a cat!

FF 008 - Mary Anne's Revenge Sep 28, 2020

Show notes

After heroically grappling with the inscrutable temporal paradox created by having to go and watch the Netflix show in between Friends Forever discussions, our geniuses turn their great brains to the question of whether Cary Retlin is the coolest guy in Stoneybrook, why Cokie Mason has such a big house, and what, precisely, Mary Anne is evolving into. Then Tanner brings on a very special guest to attest to the fact that he is, and always has been, a nice boy.

FF 006 - Stacey and the Boyfriend Trap Sep 14, 2020

Show notes

After the fever dream that was the Netflix video novels, the boys are thrown headfirst back into the twilight world of "Friends Forever," where the Fame Wolf still prowls, danger lurks around every corner, and any moment could be the one where the Boyfriend Trap is sprung. This week, Stacey McGill stands trial for her crimes against humanity and Claudia specifically, and Ann M. Martin lays down a few more clues about how to sweep your crush right off their feet.

BSCTV 010 - Hello, Camp Moosehead! Part 2 (feat. Jaime Greenring) Sep 07, 2020

Show notes

The baby-sitters face their hardest test yet, as they stand on the edge of a dark and forbidding forest; a wilderness wherein they must wander until they learn the the truth about themselves, find meaning in the vastness of experience that stretches out before them, or do a great big smooch with Logan, depending on which baby-sitter they are. No guest from the show this week, but Jack auditions a new co-host and it goes really well.

BSCTV 009 - Hello, Camp Moosehead! Part 1 (feat. Sophie Grace and Sophia Reid-Gantzert) Aug 31, 2020

Show notes

The boys send their best and bravest into the heart of suburban Connecticut in search of the secret portal to Stoneybrook, but all they end up with is a nasty case of browntail moths. Coincidentally, that’s what the baby-sitters are getting into this week as well, over at Camp Moosehead, where the moths are poisonous, injustice reigns, and if you’re not careful, you might just lose your face. Kristy (Sophie Grace) and Karen (Sophia Reid-Gantzert) join for a diabolical game!

BSCTV 008 - Kristy's Big Day (feat. Mark Feuerstein) Aug 24, 2020

Show notes

Things aren’t looking so hot for Batgirl’s big day! Kristy looks like a banana, the officiant is a witch, and Mr. Spier’s shirt smells like meat. After a robust discussion of these important topics, the boys are joined by Watson himself (Mark Feuerstein) for a bracing round of Dad Talk.

BSCTV 007 - Boy-Crazy Stacey (feat. Shay Rudolph and Momona Tamada) Aug 17, 2020

Show notes

Something’s going on with the dads of Stoneybrook this week. Watson’s hiding something behind a mysterious blue door, Mr. Spier is undergoing some kind of unnatural evolution, and John Pike is sending us cryptic messages through his license plate. Then, the boys are joined by Shay Rudolph (Stacey) and Momona Tamada (Claudia), who agree to take an extremely tricky and diabolical quiz about their BSC knowledge.

BSCTV 006 - Claudia and Mean Janine (feat. Naia Cucukov and Lucy Kitada) Aug 10, 2020

Show notes

The boys bring their sharp critical lens to another fascinating video-novel this week as they grapple with a number of complex choices its creators have made around Stacey’s dating life, Mary Anne’s room renovation, and Humpty Dumpty, the shattered eggman. Then the show's Executive Producers, Naia Cucukov and Lucy Kitada, join to hear some provocative and disruptive pitches for BSC-adjacent properties that they need to greenlight ASAP.

BSCTV 005 - Dawn and the Impossible Three (feat. Xochitl Gomez and Malia Baker) Aug 03, 2020

Show notes

This fascinating video-novel poses three impossible problems: Kristy’s baffling reluctance to accept Dawn into the club; the paradoxical influence of Milton’s Paradise Lost on these texts; and Mrs. Barrett’s impossible legs. Then, the boys bring in Dawn and Mary Anne themselves (Xochitl Gomez and Malia Baker) to subject them to an impossible trial of their own.
