    On today's episode of Look Into My Eyes we'll be saying Halloween, not because of the time of year but because today we're looking at Chapter 5 of Facing the Demon Headmaster: Ian's Plan. (and if you want the context for that joke I advise you look here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsvscxwwNZw) In this episode we deep dive into each member of SPLAT, take a look at Ellie's involvement in all of this and try and tease apart exactly what the Headmaster is planning at this point, all with our usual brand of humour swinging into darkness at every possible point.

    TW: Adoption, Losing Parents We're back! And this week we're looking at Chapter 4 - The Face In The Photo.

    Facing The Demon Headmaster - Chapter 3 - So—Who Am I?

    "Who am I?", not the constant searching by Jean ValJean for meaning, but in fact the title of Chapter 3 of Facing The Demon Headmaster. We cover everything from Ellie seemingly giving the game away early on, to Rosemary's sadly unfulfilled hope that this plotline was nothing to do with the Headmaster. We also cover the quality of the writing and our memories of a pre-social media internet. All interspersed with our usual "let's not take ourselves too seriously" attitude. Enjoy!

    It's time to rock DJ (Pardoman) as we introduce one of our most enigmatic characters ever in the aforementioned DJ Pardoman. We cover all sorts in this episode including DJPs Omnipresence by contrast to the Headmaster's, Abba Voyage, Bananas, and the way in which Lloyd's perspective is nicely foregrounded. Join us for a great jaunt through early 2000s nostalgia, flash mobs and much much more. Enjoy! Stick around at the end to hear our trevails as we attempt to record even in the presence of a very persistent ice cream van!
