Scooby Doo Gang - Livin' the Van Life
Wednesday Mar 24, 2021
Wednesday Mar 24, 2021
The Scooby Doo Gang was just trying to do their own thing. Making it from day to day, livin' the van life. Solving mysteries others couldn't in towns across the country just to have a place to sleep and food to eat.
Can you run without being chased? I think not. What were they on the run from?

Powerhouse - Early 80's Teen Mystery Solving Team

This show helped to convince a young grade school me that teen mystery solving gangs were a thing. That somehow if you found the right group, you too to go around solving mysteries. As long as one member of the team had a van to drive, so that you could file out of the van like a team.
At the time, it did not occur to me that you needed both other team members, and some actual mysteries to solve. Also, if it were that easy, there would be about 10 vans loaded down with mystery solving teens.

Friday the 13th Part 2 - An Ode to Muffin

There I was, up watching yet another edited for TV horror movie late at night. Not wanting to go to bed, but not really feeling any interest in yet another teens in peril movie.
Until she came onto the screen. Hair flowing, bow neatly tied, charisma in spades. She was smart. She was sweet. She was a survivor. Her name was Muffin, and she may nip at you if you step on her paws.

When you need motivation to clean, because the piles keep growing, sometimes terror works better than aspiration. Turn on these TV shows, and scare yourself into scrubbing your home, and possibly your skin, down with bleach.

When you are very young, and you like certain songs, sometimes you end up watching music videos over and over. And the video is kind of confusing, but you watch it anyway.
Then, years later, you look it up again, and you realize why it stayed with you all of those years. Self Control by Laura Branigan was a music video with a lot of masks. And a creepy doll. And mannequins, so many mannequins. Black Swan style makeup. There was also an orgy scene.
Then, sometimes you find out years later that the video was directed by William Friedkin, and your distrust of mannequins, cellos, and anyone wearing red gloves becomes clear.

Tucker and Dale vs. Evil - Tucker Got a Raw Deal

Say you buy a new vacation cabin in the woods. You got a good deal on it, but it is going to need a bit of work. And by a bit of work, there is actually a lot of work. And you go up to work on the cabin with your friend, who ditches work to play flirty time with someone with a concussion. And by the end of the weekend, everything is destroyed, and your fingers don't match.
Tucker deserves a little a little bit of appreciation and maybe a bit of justice.

Ghost Stories - Ghosts Are Not Trying to Destroy You (Probably)
Monday Feb 17, 2020
Monday Feb 17, 2020
Per the new ghost shows on Travel Channel or TRVL, ghosts have transformed from spooky mists with tragic backstories, to mind-controlling shadows that will destroy your life and try to kill you. Because a shadow can suddenly make you act like a jerk around your friends, you didn't just do that on your own.
Also, I think I need to take up looking for haunted items in people's homes. I'll just look for the most expensive trinkets, convince the homeowners that they summon demons. Then I will offer to take them to my super safe museum (i.e. my basement), until they can safely be disarmed or destroyed (i.e. sold on Ebay). It's my new business plan. I don't see how this can go wrong.

Home Interiors and Gifts Inc - Everyone Wants More Gold Shrubbery

It was hubris to think that I could get another episode out in the time frame I gave on the last episode. I laughed in the faces of the podcast deities. They responded by bringing their wrath down upon my household and sending a plague of creepy door to door salesmen to my residence.
The salesmen did bring back fond memories of the Home Interior and Gifts parties that may mom was suckered into giving on a semi-annual basis. Explaining why my childhood home was filled with framed pictures of sad children next to wagon wheels, ceramic animals that stared into your soul, and enough gold paint to bring tears of joy to a Magpie.
