We're back and we've brought a massive friend. Yes, our monster sized absence is broken by an equally monstrous beast - GODZILLA, King of all the bloody monsters. How would he work in real life? Would he take down a Godzilla sized Mike Tyson? And more importantly, would Mike Tyson take down a Mike Tyson sized Godzilla?…

Do you have a double? What would you get your double to do if you met them? What would you ask your double if you met them? Can we get any more lame hypothetical questions out of dopplegangers? You bet your double we can! We look at the troubling notion that there is another one of each of us out there... then immediately dismiss it as usual. Also …

No, one of us hasn't been hospitalised, imprisoned, or simply succumbed in the night - we've just been temporarily distracted. But we're BACK, and back with a bang, or a scream, whatever it is it doesn't matter because you won't be able to hear it where you're going.Step aboard the good ship Nostromo with your old pals. Seems like a nice bunch....…

The incy wincy spider.... has been around for about 380 million years and probably isn't going anywhere. We watched the British indie film 'Possum' with comedian and raconteur Simon Weekes. And we discovered fairly quickly it wasn't about a spider. But this is the paranormal podcast so look forward to a bit of crowbarring of weird stuff at some poi…

We stepped it up a notch this episode and hit London's glittering West End with Dave Corkery from the award-winning Cinemile podcast. We watched A Quiet Place, and then told Dave all about The Hopkinsville Goblins - a supposed real life occurrence in Kentucky in 1955 in which a crowd of monsters invaded a small farm. What were they? What do they ha…

It's finally happening. After years of flirting with it, we have decided to tackle the roots of mankind's very existence. So it turns out a load of aliens had sex with a load of ramapithecus' or whatever, and then millions (or thousands depending on who you speak to) of years later came back to help us out with the pyramids in Egypt and a few other…

How big is the biggest crab? Is Sebastian actually a crab? Is there such thing as a Demon crabs? Is Attack of the Crab Monsters any good?

FEAR. Spiders, snakes, clowns, responsibility. We all have them. In many ways they are the route of all paranormal experience so we probably should have talked about the subject a while ago. Well, definitely before the worm episode anyway. We discuss the nature of fear, what purpose it serves from an evolutionary standpoint, and for some reason how…

In space, no one can hear you lazily rip off the most iconic tagline of all time.. Nevertheless, we're still not going to. We look to the skies to tackle the huge subject of aliens, via Ridley Scott's Alien Covenant. Ridiculously, we attempt to talk about interstellar travel, astrobiology, and the occurrence of earth like planets in the universe. W…

HERE BE GIANTS. And also here be everything you need to know about them ever, in one podcast. We talk giants, cyclopses, pirates, and really tall people.

Turning our blurred gaze onto the highly controversial subject of hypnotism, we combine this with reviewing Jordan Peele's critically acclaimed 'Get Out'. Will we use this deep, metaphor strewn film as a springboard to a conversation about racial politics in Trump's America? Or will Naylor just tell a load of weird anecdotes about Wales and end up …

Here Be Dragons... or not really dragons but definitely scaly reptile-y things, as we found out when we went to see The Great Wall.

With special guest Dave Corkery from the Cinemi…

Frank Capra's festive Magnum Opus It's A Wonderful Life is 70 years old this December (21st to be specific). The film sees George Bailey, played by an absolutely on top of his game fresh face Jimmy Stewart, descend to the brink of suicide before being rescued by a bumbling, naive, and fairly consistently infuriating angel named Clarence. In honour …

Toil, trouble, and tins abound as we set our steely gaze upon the dreaded witch. Despite Naylor's attempt to discuss witches from children's television, we bravely sally forth to Pendle, 1612 and look at the most famous witch trial in England. After that it's a quick 15 month boat ride across to New England where we look at Robert Eggers' unsettlin…

What's The Point turns its unerring gaze north as we head out in search of the Loch Ness Monster. What really does lurk beneath the icy waves of the Great Glen Fault? A wayward seal? A prehistoric marine reptile that somehow avoided the fate that befell the dinosaurs and its kin 65 millions years ago to forge a lonely existence in a lake in Scotlan…
