Last Tango in Highland Park

Not to oversell, but in this episode we've stumbled across one of life's big questions:


If you move house and everything is still in some degree of chaos, and a very sweet man from Virgin Media comes to install wifi but then leaves his enormous bulky jacket behind, and the addition of this one big jacket tips you over the edge mentally, how long do you have to keep the jacket before giving it to a charity shop? 


Obviously Virgin Media has been contacted multiple times to say, "Hey! We've got this guy's jacket!"


Firecrotch is on the verge of a mental breakdown, btw.

In Awe of Flustered Hesitancy

First things first: You know that you're our honeybunch, sugarplum, pumpy-umpy-umpkin, sweetie pie, cuppy cake, gumdrop, snoogums-boogums, apple-of-our-eye, don't you? Of course you do!


Secondly, here's an episode for you. We don't want to spoil what's inside, but if you're triggered by lengthy descriptions of defecation and its complications, you may want to listen to the first five minutes before skipping ahead another seven or so. Don't roll your eyes at us! That still means over >84% of the content in this TV review podcast is non-faecal in nature.*

No Such Thing as a Free Cornucopia

We're nearing the end of our accidentally homeless era. Who will we be when we're not outstaying our welcome in various friends' homes? Will you even know us? Will we even know ourselves? Tune in next week to hear us homed, but not settled. The chances of us having a working TV or broadband connection are extremely remote, so we'll probably be reviewing an audiobook or a street performer. 'Reviewing'.

The Opposable Thumb of Self-Awareness

New season! New us! New you? What is the sound of one hand clapping? Also, if a tree falls in the woods and no one's there to hear it, does it make a sound? Also also, what happens to a Slut Summer® summer-slut if she wants to stay slutty in autumn?


Life’s big questions asked, if not answered.


PLUS: wool.

Sorry for the disappearing act. Excuses/explanations within, some of which are not for the faint-hearted. In your face, fainthearts.

Fun Size Friendship

It's another unedited episode as slut summer becomes the summer of slop - we were recording against the clock before unplugging our home podcast studio FOREVER.


We're at the mercy of the conveyancing process, so we don't know when normal service will be resumed, but mom decided it was better to give you something rather than nothing. (Pop remains unconvinced.)


What do you think? Stop the slop, or would you welcome further slop drops? Email us about this, or your other concerns: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.com

A cautionary episode highlighting the perils of podcasting without editing. (Our editor, Annabel is away this week, and Geoff didn't have time to do it because our life is either in boxes, or needs putting into boxes.)

Will the podcast drop on its usual Tuesday, a leisurely Wednesday, a tardy Thursday or will we be filthy and unload it all over you on a Friday?

Geoff is only half sweaty, and less of a ticking time bomb than we originally feared.

Arranging Your Friends by Net Worth

We watched Jesse Armstrong's new film, 'Mountainhead'. Twice: Once on our sofa, and once at a glittering event (which was also the site of the least comfortable convo in history - between your correspondent Sara H. Barron and the Emmy-winning Tony Roche. Coincidentally, the second-least comfortable convo in history was happening nearby.)


Also, has Geoff found a new TV gang? And Sara is euphoric because 'Sex and The City' spinoff, 'And Just Like That' is back for another season. Michael Patrick King and Jesse David Armstrong, both dropping new material in the same week! She's like a pig in sh*t and deluxe sh*t at the same time.

A Compulsion to Lick

Happy New Jesse Armstrong Content Eve! By the time our next episode drops, his new film, Mountainhead will be released into the wild (HBO/Sky/Now TV.) May Our Lord and Saviour, Jesse David, watch over you and bring peace to the land, the crops, the pigs, and the chickens. 


This podcast is late to honor our big boy on his big day, and not because we had a series of mishaps over half-term. 


nb. This episode contains zero actual Jesse Armstrong or 'Mountainhead' content beyond fevered anticipation. One of us is excited to tell you about the best TV we've seen in over twelve months, though.


Peace be with you.

(And with you.)
