BSCSC 002 - Baby-Sitters' Summer Vacation Nov 19, 2018

Show notes

Welcome to Lake Whatever, where every man, woman, and baby-sitter who swims in its waters must come face-to-face with their greatest fear. A faceless monster, a trio of escaped murderers, a first true love, an unwanted makeover, and an especially amorous Logan Bruno are just a few of the trials that the girls must face this week, while the boys grapple with the difficult case law around what is and isn’t cool and develop a powerful – and incredibly dangerous – new catchphrase.

BSCC 136 - The Fire at Mary Anne's House, Part 2 of 2 Nov 05, 2018

Show notes

As Jackie Rodowsky knows all too well, there is an infinity of possible worlds in the great expanse of existence, but even Jackie Rodowsky would tell you – with his birds’ eye view – that every single one of them is aflame right now. And as the great fire spreads, its indifferent tendrils creep towards some very familiar figures: The people of Stoneybrook, who stand arm in arm against the encroaching terror; Ann and her extraordinary ghostwriters, who are helpless to prevent it; and Mary Anne, whose tears have come too late. Also, the boys talk about their favorites from Queer Eye!

BSCC 135 - The Fire at Mary Anne's House, Part 1 of 2 Oct 29, 2018

Show notes

Kristy's trying to organize the BSC to enter a baby-sitting contest from a magazine, but Ann has other plans: To burn it all to the ground. Oh, and Mary Anne's house is alive. And it's calling to her. And no matter what we do to hold it back, the cleansing fire will consume us and transform us. But not before we graduate from Cool School! Welcome to part one of two episodes that will change the course of human history.

BSCC: The Hatchet Order Oct 22, 2018

Show notes

Sike! You thought!

Nope! Finale isn’t happening this week. Jack needed an extra week to work on the final episode(s). Instead, you get this special treat! Two preeminent scholars in their field will delight your senses with a complete walkthrough of the infamous Baby-Sitters Club “Hatchet Order.” Join them as they do an exhaustive book-by-book analysis (well, about a quarter of the books before they got bored) of the parallels and resonant melodies between BSC books 1 through 32 and books 100 through 131.

Or skip it and come back for The Fire At Mary Anne’s House next week. We’re not here to tell you how to live your life.

BSCC 132: Kristy at Bat Oct 08, 2018

Show notes

Y’all ready for this? Tanner wasn’t, because he lost his notes. But honestly what decent person could truly be prepared to say goodbye to Kristy and leave her to the purging flames that Ann is preparing for the final novel in the Sitters’ Cycle? Only a monster would even ask the question. It’s not all doom and gloom though, because Kristy is as luminescent as ever in this book, bravely taking on Ann’s greatest fear even as her world closes in on her in a cataclysm of supervillains, dinosaurs, and sentient birds. Also, explicit warning: Arm stuff.

BSCC: Little Sister - Karen's Little Sister Oct 04, 2018

Show notes

Ever wished you could spend 30 full minutes hearing two grown men argue heatedly about the difference between a little sister and a middle sister? Well, if so, you’re in for quite a treat. Karen Brewer has a little sister on this week’s very special Little Sister: Little Episode, and the infuriating paradox that fact creates might just tear these boys apart.

Thanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music.

BSCC 131 - Claudia and the Little Liar Oct 01, 2018

Show notes

This week the Baby-Sitters Club Club (BSCC) is more like the The Video-Games Club Club (VGCC) because gamer geek Suzanne couldn’t help herself and peppered this entire book with endless references to her favorite imported Japanese video games from the late 1990s. When she’s not going on and on about Crash Team Racing or Rockman, Suzanne did manage to find a few pages to discuss Haley Braddock’s lies, Claudia’s break-up, and DEFINITELY NOT purple orbs.

Music Credits:

“Action” by Monplaisir
“Limitless” by Elektronomia
“You Gotta Have Theremin and Ukulele” by SquidLord

Thanks to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music and Superbrat for the outro music.

BSCC 130 - Abby's Un-Valentine Sep 24, 2018

Show notes

This one goes out to Boo-Boo. What a life to take. What a bond to break. We’ll all be missing you Boo-Boo, but the show must go on and this week the boys managed to pull themselves together just enough to discuss Abby’s misadventures in love, a new theory of the mysterious Cat People, and the true, official reading order for the BSC series. Also, Bee Theory may be wrong. Happy reading!
