Ever found yourself under the covers, a flashlight in hand, not because you were reading a ghost story, but because you dared to watch a children's TV show that was just a bit too creepy? That's where Tom andMitch—with a whimsical nod to our imaginary guest Bilbo Baggins—start our latest podcast episode. We kick things off with a chuckle and a mischievous plan to handle our errant correspondent Hayden's absence. Then, we plunge into the eerie depths of nostalgic TV, ranking the top ten shows that spooked us as kids. From the animated chills of "Tales from the Cryptkeeper" to the bizarre antics of "Pee-Wee's Playhouse," we share anecdotes that will make you look twice at your childhood favorites.
Have you ever met a clown that didn't stir a mix of hilarity and horror? We dive into that peculiar sensation, sparked by none other than Tim Curry's iconic Pennywise, and recount our own clown encounters. Our journey through the past continues with a tribute to "Goosebumps" and "Eerie Indiana," celebrating how these shows ingrained a love of horror in our hearts. And we don't hold back on our confessions and frustrations with gaming—from hacker revelations in Call of Duty to platforming in "Get High" mode—sharing a laugh over our misadventures in virtual worlds.
As we look ahead, the rumors swirling around the Call of Duty franchise, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and new cinema entries have us speculating with glee. From potential comebacks like Chris Evans' Captain America to the thrill of new projects like the "Furiosa" film and the "Mortal Kombat" sequel, we dissect every tidbit with the excitement of true fans. And with Netflix stepping into the live sports broadcasting scene, we ponder the future of entertainment. So buckle up for this rollercoaster ride that promises to be as entertaining as it is nostalgic!
