#137 - Frontload the Grumpery

Can you imagine an evil version of Kintobor? What goes down in this issue? What does Dave go down in the diary? How did He-Man melt? What's Life? What's So-Called Life?? And what friends will unexpectedly appear to say hi? Find out! With listening!!

Crash! Bang! There goes another one! That's right, it's gunfire season and plot this episode with the art surprising us in multiple ways, an All-New advert, and insight into what dads shouldn't watch and what sort of computers they have in Heaven

This episode stops existing at midnight, so hurry! We have multiple stupid arguments this episode, perhaps because we're cross about the Ctrl Zn being gone. There are two awooga moments, and only one involves an army general's top getting ripped.

Welcome to the saltiest episode of STCTP yet, in which we become noodle-armed and squiggle-bent about the loss of two important chambers of the beating heart of STC to nefarious drone-punchers. PLUS! @SubsonicSparkIe reads STC's Sonic CD adaptation!

Knuckles Metallix drawn by Bob & Dobbyn, what else do you want? How about hoop ignorance? A breaded Man shape? A topic so serious that we probably shouldn't have covered it except STC and the format of the podcast forced our hand? You get all that!

Dave fails to turn pages or edit out the ding-dongs as we learn Root's secret and wave goodbye to an important old friend. Sort of.

Spice up your cheese! Would you like to do that? Well now you can, as the Spice Girls launch the career of Cheetah the Cheetah the Cheetah. ALSO: We recontextualise "Tuesday" and collect our GCSEs, and worlds converge as me & Chris' memories sync up.

In which we do not go on a tangent at the start. Straight in, we are. Sonic's fighting Putties, Knuckles can fly but not fly, Mulder misses the action, you can't even handle toffee any more and Diary Dave gets a new obsession... but will you join him??

Imagine you were obsessed with introducing a popular American product to the UK, but the problem was that we already have it, and love it, just by a different name. What do you do? The answer will surprise you this issue as we find out all about Cheetos.

WE'RE BACK! Why were we away? Because Dave moved house and also his PC died. But we're back! Or, if you're listening later than initial release, we're still here and it's normal! This episode: Dinosaur! Queer rep! Gormenghast! Good Amiga tunes!
