BSCMC 016 - Claudia and the Clue in the Photograph Jun 17, 2019

Show notes

Have you ever looked at a photograph that really made you laugh? Like, why were your eyes so red and what the hell was on Joey’s head? That’s precisely what Claudia and her friends in the Baby-Sitter’s Club did this week, except instead of red eyes, it was red hands! Because they caught someone stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars red-handed! And instead of wondering what what the hell is on Joey’s head, they’re wondering if head’s will role when the Stoneybrook PD finally catches up to the bank heist bandit. Also, Tanner has a kid now, which is pretty exciting. Sorry about all the Dad Talk™.

BSCMC 015 - Kristy and the Vampires Jun 10, 2019

Show notes

Your two favorite disaffected but lovable Goths sink their Hot Topic fangs into more ‘90s horror this week, with a bone-chilling look at the famously “cursed” straight-to-TV vampire movie “Little Vampires.” Filmed on location in Stoneybrook, CT, where a number of near-fatal accidents disrupted the set (until the would-be-murderer was captured by a pair of meddling baby-sitters) “Little Vampires” stars heartthrob Carson Fraser (more famous for his role in “Miami Beach, USA”) and P.S. 162’s Derek Masters. The unsolved mystery here is why the Director chose to film this one in Stoneybrook, of all places, but it’s fair to say that the sleepy Connecticut town was … not prepared.

BSCMC 013 - Mary Anne and the Library Mystery May 27, 2019

Show notes

We got ‘em! These dangerous Private Investigators have made their last mistake, and as soon as we release this damning report to the world, Mary Anne, Kristy, Stacey, Claudia, and Jessi will have their detectives’ licenses permanently revoked. Another job well done by the Internal Investigations team, who have uncovered countless procedural errors, including illegally assuming false identities to antagonize peaceful protestors, overzealous prosecution of fashion crimes, and endangering a small child. We also discovered something very spooky and evil lurking in the dark corners of this town, so we’d like to wrap this case right away so we can get out of here as soon as possible! Oh, and we’d like to recommend an extremely promising new recruit named Alan Gray for the team. This kid’s gonna go far.

W♥KCMC 012 - Dawn and the Surfer Ghost May 20, 2019

Show notes

Hang ten, Riptide Babies! Your favorite cheeba/Stoppard heads, Weed Lord and Half-Pipe, are back all the way from sunny California! The fog is rolling in and the screamers are out for blood, so ghouls and grommets alike should paddle in, because when the surfer ghost is out to get you, you’re bound to get got. Also, there really wasn’t a B-plot this week, so don’t expect to hear much about one. Party on, Riptide Babies! And don’t forget to save a toke for me! (A toke of drugs, to be clear.)

BSCMC 011 - Claudia and the Mystery of the Museum May 13, 2019

Show notes

There’s suddenly a massive, new, multi-story, premiere art gallery in Stoneybrook, which would be enough of a mystery by itself if it weren’t for the mystery of how many freaking crimes are getting committed in this darn thing! Not to mention the mystery of all the “Lewks” Baby-Sitters Club Art Director Hodges Soileau is serving this week and whether he is, in fact, Daddy. Then there’s the mystery of the Skeleton Faction, the number 1016, and what, precisely, Claudia is wearing this week. Fortunately we have two of the world’s biggest idiots on the case, so expect plenty of coherent answers to all of these questions!

BSCMC 010 - Stacey and the Mystery Money May 06, 2019

Show notes

Bad news. Stacey is a crime girl again. She just can’t help herself, she’s as drawn to crime as she is hot and horny young men, like Terry/David Hoyt/Hawthorne. This week, the girls solve a mystery, but like, an actual mystery. Who is trying to pass off counterfeit bills all over Stoneybrook? Is it the nefarious English teacher, Mr. Fisk? Is it Stacey’s new lover? Is it the savior of the Dunmer people and the hero of Morrowind, the Nerevarine? You’ll have to listen to find out.

BSCMC 009 - Kristy and the Haunted Mansion Apr 29, 2019

Show notes

The boys are elbows deep in Boethius this week as they take a trip with Kristy and the Krashers to a mansion that is haunted by the angry, vengeful ghost of The Patriarchy itself. Meanwhile, the Pike boys are living backwards, Mary Anne finds a runaway bride in a sewing shop, and a couple of experts drop by to offer their thoughtful, modern, and inspired expertise in what is sure to become an instant classic segment for our most fashion forward listeners. As usual, a surprising and possibly unwelcome amount of poetry, and this week … some insight into what may have happened on those fateful days leading up to June 10.

BSCMC 008 - Jessi and the Jewel Thieves Apr 22, 2019

Show notes

This week, Jessi and Quint break it off. But not before they harass two master actors and probable lovers by accusing them of crimes and stalking them across New York City. Meanwhile, the boys talk fatherhood, the boys that make them horny, the Nickelodeon show Doug, old Don Hertzfeld shorts, and their mutual friend Gus. (Hi Gus!) Also, Ellen and Ann forgot to put a mystery in this one. Oh well!

BSCMC 007 - Dawn and the Disappearing Dogs Apr 15, 2019

Show notes

A searing indictment of Minnesota’s police force specifically, this brave episode goes where no previous episode has dared to go: Right to the source of all the True Crime that everybody’s doing these days! And that includes the international dong-thievery that is taking place in Stoneybrook itself, the cat kissing and the dog licking that is all too rampant in today’s society, and the equally troubling (if not technically illegal) way in which Mary Anne talks about Dawn’s mom’s perfectly nice tofu curry. Alright, people, let’s find out who’s been stealing all these dogs! (Spoilers for Beastmaster.)
