    BSCC 001 - Kristy's Great Idea

    Jack and Tanner sit down to discuss book one in the "Baby-sitters Club" series, "Kristy's Great Idea," and try to get to the bottom of what Kristy's idea is exactly, and why it's so great. (Spoiler: the idea is a baby-sitters club.) --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    BSCC 111 - Don't Give Up, Mallory

    You know what? Mallory really stuck it to the Man this week, and we’re damn proud of her. But while dear, sweet, brave Mal was busy standing up to the (admittedly handsome) Trevor Sandbourne and singlehandedly dismantling the entrenched power structures at SMS, all was not well in the rest of Stoneybrook: Dangerous new knowledge has come to light in the mysterious academic discipline known as Bread Theory; terrifying portents are, well, portended, by The Bird and The Wheelmaker; and the boys had the distinct displeasure of debuting the hottest track to ever light up the charts in the space between worlds – a mind-flaying dirge known to those who love it as “49 Deaths.” And perhaps even more surprising than all of that, Tanner finally learns what a segue is. Or does he? ... Music credits: “Slash,” by Arc North “Never Give Up,” by Neffex “Heroic,” by TexasBrother “Death March,” by Benjamin James Thanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Baby Bee Wolfkiller for the outro music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    04/30/2018

    BSCC 110 - Mind Your Own Business, Kristy!

    Charlie Thomas has a new girlfriend named Angela, Pamela, Sandra, or Rita, and despite the fact that she’s a Crime Girl, they are only getting sweeter (the trumpet!). Kristy doesn’t like her because she’s a Baseball Idiot (and she’s not the only one in this week’s book). Car crimes are perpetrated against the State of Connecticut, and there’s a hit new Blade (the vampire/vampire hunter) musical coming to Broadway. This one’s for you, Harry Nilsson, wherever you are now. We can’t live… if livin’ is without you.

    BSCC 009 - The Ghost at Dawn's House

    If there's something strange in Dawn's house... who you gonna call? The Baby-sitter's Club Club! This week, the girls (and by extension, the boys) dive deep into the world of paranormal activity, cause there's a ghost y'all, and it's living in Dawn's crawl space, and it's eating ice cream, and doing a bunch of other things you'd expect a 9-year-old boy to do. On unrelated news, 9-year-old Nicky Pike keeps disappearing and hiding in an unknown location. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    12/05/2016

    BSCC 041 - Poor Mallory!

    Jack and Tanner are together again recording in the same space this week. In fact, they’re recording in Jack’s “study” which is a cozier space that usual, so things get a little… intimate. This week, the boys discuss the works of Dickens, the simmering war between the newest factions, and get ready for the BSCC’s most dynamic theory to date: BREAD THEORY.   Music credits:   "Bagpipes of Nostaglia” by TYLTK "Mazurka in D major” by Frédéric Chopin - Performed by Edward Neeman “Melancholia” by Ryan Creep "You're Not My Dad! [Trap Remix]” by Dennibro     Thanks, as always, to original baby boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and Superbrat for the outro music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    BSCC 008 - Boy-Crazy Stacey

    The boys are back, but I'm not talking about the boys Stacey is crazy about, I'm talking about Jack and Tanner, who read "Boy-Crazy Stacey" this week. This shouldn't come as any surprise to you if you've listened to the last seven episodes, but they have a hard time staying on topic. Lots to discuss this week: bee theory, Kanye West, Victorian literature, and a surprise visit from Jack's secret British accent. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    BSCC 014 - Good-Bye Stacey, Good-Bye

    Stacey is moving out of Stoneybrook, and 4 to 10 new brides of Satan are moving in to take her place, so it's up to two undercover French witch-hunters to eradicate the evil threat looming over the town once and for all. Also, the dolls and are in control, and Jack and Tanner make a bet that the Baby Nation is going to have to hold them to, because they're DEFINITELY going to forget. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    BSCC 126 - Claudia's Big Party

    We’re not trying to tell you how to live your lives, but you’re going to disappoint a lot of people if you refuse to read Infinite Jest, watch Videodrome, and familiarize yourself with all of the great works of Stone Cold Steve Austin, and instead spend your time doing whippets, watching SportsCenter, and throwing big blow-out parties when your parents are away like Claudia Kishi decided to do this week. This one’s for fans of Janine Kishi, aka “The Janenius,” people who think Sense and Sensibility was written in the ‘90s, and anyone who’s ever huffed whipped cream to see what might happen. “Speakeasy,” by Sound Ideas “Stardust,” by Fox Beat Stock Music “Throw the Coins,” by Patrick Doyle “Lovely Memories,” by CreativeMedias_net “Without Limits,” by Ross Budgen Thanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    BSCC 122 - Stacey's Ex-Boyfriend

    Kristy’s out of the way and busy with her Strawberry Festival and Stacey’s stuck between the two handsome boys in her life, so get ready to Hashtag “Swoon" (this is a new cool thing to say!) over the ever-so-dreamy Ethan, and Hashtag “Speak The Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear” (not a thing yet, but hopefully soon!) for Robert “Brewdoggy” Brewster, who is truly going through some stuff this week. If all of that makes you socially anxious, just remember your FORDOW acronym and you can’t go wrong! Unless you’re too far gone with Suzeynity, in which case the best you can probably do is sit back and either wait for the universe to be set upon the Golden Path or lament the ominous return of the Jaquio. Is it just me or is this podcast making less and less sense as we go on?

    BSCC 128 - Mary Anne in the Middle

    Mallory has left the safe confines of the BSC to become a baby-sitting Ronin and roam the Earth with no master and no mission but her wanderings. The factions have taken full control of Stoneybrook, as witches fight demons and terrible dinosaurs rage and roar in the ghost-riddled streets. To make matters worse, the boys are feuding, driven mad with fear as these books count down to their inevitable fiery end. Meanwhile, the girls are throwing a festive holiday party for the residents of Stoneybrook Manor! All that and more as we approach the heart-pounding conclusion of the great Sitters’ Cycle. “The Army of Minotaur,” by Maki Symphony “Drama,” by Daniel__St “Theme from Loom,” by LucasFilm Games “Don’t Leave Me,” by Lionel Schmitt “Jane’s Lament,” by EMSonora “Love Potion,” by Fasol Prod “Stardust,” by Fox Beat Stock Music Thanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    BSCC 048 - Mary Anne Misses Logan

    We’re considering changing the name of the show to “The Pete Black Club” because we discovered our favorite character in the entire series this week. Here’s all the rad stuff Pete Black did this week: Burned Cokie Mason, worked on his part of the school project, and found a way for Tanner to mention Bread Theory. There’s some other less important characters in this book like Mary Anne and Logan and a toilet monster, but we can’t really remember what they got up to because we were so laser focused on Pete Black’s antics.    Music Credits:  “Detroit" by Podington Bear  "Party Hard” by Mike L  “Constellation" by Podington Bear  “My Sharona” MIDI  Thanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    01/22/2018

    BSCC 096 - Mary Anne and the Memory Garden

    A life is cut tragically short this week and all of Stoneybrook comes together for a funeral for their friend Amelia. She was just thirteen years old when the ultimate killing machine, Doomsday, escaped its underground prison and fought her on the streets of Metropolis, leading to her tragic and untimely death and ultimately to the rise of four new heroes: Cyborg Amelia, Amelia of Steel, Ameliaboy, and the mysterious Last Amelia of Krypton. But can these new heroes stand up to villains such as The Dark Lady and live up to the legacy of Amelia, whose memory garden still serves as a reminder for the citizens of the world of her greatness?

    BSCC 108 - Stacey the Math Whiz

    Okay, so Jack and Tanner spent a ton of their hard-earned ad revenue on new mics and recorders but then that dunce Jack hit the wrong button and essentially recorded all of this episode and the next one on his laptop mic so it sounds awful BUT there’s still a really solid episode there so try to bear with us. Stacey is a nerd now, the Deep Voice Boys are back with an exciting new role, Jack spends a LONG time perfecting a new character who LOVES smoking drugs and doing 69-ing with people and the Counting Crows get a lot of very special shout outs this week. Music Credits: "Mr. Jones" (Karaoke Version) originally performed by Counting Crows "Let’s Start At The Beginning” by Lee Rosevere "Phototropic” by Chime "Single Ladies" (Karaoke Version) originally performed by Beyoncé Thanks to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music and Superbrat for the outro music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    BSCC 089 - Mary Anne and Camp BSC

    What seems at first to be a very straightforward “paint-by-numbers” installment in the sitterverse (yawn: the sitters hold a day camp for some of their charges) turns out to be an intricate, surprising, and genuinely frightening origin story for Mary Anne Spier herself. As the boys pick apart the strands in this delicate tapestry woven by Ann M. Martin and the great Nola Thacker, they begin to wonder whether they’ve uncovered something that none of us were meant to know. Because this one goes all the way down, Baby Nation. All the way. Down. Some completely unwarranted and baseless slander of the fine city of Cleveland in this episode, which is still nowhere near as offensive as how many total minutes it takes Jack to get through one two-clause sentence about the B-plot of this book. Put your tinfoil hats on for this one, Baby Nation, because you’re gonna need ‘em!

    Hello and welcome to Blackheads! A hit new show from your friends Jack and Tanner, of the Pete Black Appreciation Society. Today we're diving deep into the mysterious case of Pete's misguided infatuation with Laine Cummings, Stacey McGill's surprisingly awful ex-best friend.

    BSCMC 035 - Abby and the Notorious Neighbor

    Detective Tanner and Gumshoe Jack wade into a mystery that they are fundamentally ill equipped to solve, featuring not just Abby Stevenson, but a beloved and dangerous Marvel hero, the entire crew from “Mystery Men,” an ascended Lawnmower Man version of Janine Kishi, and a stone cold hottie who’s been hiding in plain sight this whole time. Oh, and also Cenobites! And Kristy. Kristy’s in this one too. Ellen Miles did a whole lot with some pretty limited space this week.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy what can only be described as a romp, as Kristy Thomas pits baby against baby in a bloody, catastrophic battle for the future of civilization, while Jack and Tanner have a good, old-fashioned gossip sesh about Communism and Killer Dolls.     Music Credits:    “Spooky Ride,” by Twin Musicom  “8-Bit Black Parade,” by 8-Bit Sound  “Electro Upbeat EDM,” by Metro  “Red Army Choir Russian National Anthem,” by Yurttan Haberler    Thanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

    BSCMC 020 - Mary Anne and the Zoo Mystery

    The Entity is back! And we wrote an incredible mystery book. We think we’ll really get a kick out of where our episode goes this week. We filled the episode with laughs and sound effects and whales and human children! Listen to our screams of glee as we study the whales! Listen to the our chorus of shrieks! “The whales!”, we shout, “the whales!” We also discuss alternate worlds, bug balls, how we pronounce the word “emu’ and we made the whole episode epistolary because we needed cover for the fact that Tanner’s co-working space was so full of people, so don’t be surprised if we hear from our friends Goliath and Mark Markson.
