The Grinch hated Christmas. The whole Christmas season. Now, please don’t ask why. No one quite knows the reason. Vicky and James try to discover why, what and, most importantly, Whos. There have been a few adaptations over the years, but which is the best? Maybe it’s all, no version of the Grinch too small! There’s much to discuss, including a bit about cancel culture and all that fuss. Welcome Christmas, bring your cheer. Here’s a new podcast ep for you all to hear!
Ghostbusters, Ghostbusters, Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Candyman, The Walking Dead, The Office, Harry Styles... Every flipping thing is a remake or sequel nowadays. But is that a bad thing? Or just a boring thing? Vicky and James discuss.
Vicky’s midlife crisis intensifies as she turns 40 and is overwhelmed by there being too much of everything. James agrees. We discuss places that are the coolest, the furthest, the best for professionals, and the best for families in London. According to James - nowhere.
Vicky and James discuss folklore and urban legends as heard from your friend’s sister’s cousin. Did you know that if you walk under a street sign you will become gay? That’s what we heard.
For many of us the school nativity is our first taste of stage time. Were you a Joseph or did you fall off the stage as a member of the choir? Here we find out what happened to James. Vicky and James pitch a Quantum Leap Nativity cross-over and rewrite a pop song in a bid for Christmas Number One. Merry Christmas everyone and a Happy New Year! Thanks for listening.
Vicky and James conclude their Back to the Future conversation with Back to the Future III. Covering terrible Irish accents, the bloody rain, and making your future a good one. Includes a bonus pop quiz to test James‘ expert knowledge. Will he win a million pounds?
Vicky uses her personal experience to give James advice about what to do if he's ever arrested. With diversions into TV theme tunes and how good they used to be and whether or not a bourbon is a chocolate biscuit (it's not).
Now that James is a dad we discuss fatherhood, Father Christmas, appropriate movies and being present at the birth. Is James taking to his new role? Yes. Will Gremlins be a good movie to show a child? Probably not.
Let's go back to the future, past, present again and discuss Vicky's favourite of the trilogy (and it IS a trilogy). With a diversion into sex with cartoons because why not? To be concluded...
Beset by internet problems and emotional (and technical) pauses, Vicky talks succinctly about grief in the wake of her mum's death and James has a date with Barney the Chimney Sweep.
Vicky and James discuss yuletide, scumbags, maggots, faggots and peas, whilst also musing over the song writing ability of George Michael and Quality Street versus Roses chocolate. A special long arsed edition to listen to over the festive season - cause what other plans do we actually have?! Merry Christmas all and here's to the end of 2020.
Starting with wigs and ending with foxes, we discuss the first of the Back to the Future Trilogy, 'Space Man from Pluto'. How did Marty and Doc become friends? Do we care? Is it really so unlikely that George and Lorraine do not recognise their son as 'Calvin Klein'? (answer: no, it's not).
Starting with a lot of food talk, Vicky and James go on and on about all things spooky, ooky and Halloween-y. Attempting to answer such deep questions like "is a Halloween movie one set at Halloween or any scary movie?" and the use of "fancy dress party" vs "costume party" and what makes us human.
Vicky quizzes James about being a man in 2020. So bear in mind this is just one woman and one man's views. Email us at vickygoesonandon@gmail.com if you would like to argue the toss. Or if you're Paul Rudd.
Vicky goes on and on about the Coronavirus Part 2. A bumper episode where we catch up with what's going on with lockdown, rules, how we're coping and what on Earth is going on. 2020. What a year.
