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?

Heavy Flow
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.)This song is lovely, though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=st7IwWl-T84Offer kind words: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comGrow Sara's slutty budget this summer: https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCH Hosted on Acast.

One For the Americans?
We're baaaaaaaack! To say we're "better than ever" would be an overstatement, however we're not unhappy with the episode. Sara's in pink pants - slut!!!! - plus she's onto some Churchill materials. Geoff is only half sweaty, and less of a ticking time bomb than we originally feared. Plus: Pee Wee Herman and Adam CurtisWrite to us: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comBuy Sara her slut books: patron.com/theyliketowatch Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

They Like To Watch: The Musical!
Made using Suno to highlight how AI music apps could devalue human artistry, replace jobs, and flood the market with generic content - eroding originality, authorship, and the emotional depth that comes from lived experience. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

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.Maslow's hierarchy of needs: Tier 3: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comTiers 1 and 2: https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCH Hosted on Acast.
