MINIBUMP! "Werewolf Skin" (Goosebumps TV Show)
Tuesday Nov 17, 2020
Tuesday Nov 17, 2020
In preparation for our upcoming episode on R.L. Stine's Werewolf Skin (Goosebumps #60), we invited Steve and Emmy, the hosts of Misfits and Mysteries. Together, with their brave assistance, we go through the baffling, convoluted, absolutely unassailable plot of "Werewolf Skin" parts 1 and 2, and we get more and more baffled. These episodes are bonkers.

Geesebumps 9: "Don't Ever Get Sick at Granny's" (Ghosts of Fear Street #16)
Tuesday Nov 10, 2020
Tuesday Nov 10, 2020
It's cold and flu season so what better time to go through one of the scariest, illness based works in R.L. Stine's canon, Don't Ever Get Sick at Granny's. We talk Jilly Juice, cleansing, the dangers of water intoxication, unflattering dream sequences, and overnight cold cures. As a note, these are all things that are dangerous for you and though Danielle and Joe-Joe are doctors, they are not medical doctors.
The next episode comes out on November 24th, 2020! We're going to be checking out one of the later Goosebumps books, Werewold Skin (Goosebumps #60), and stay tuned for a minisode on the 17th where we discuss some Goosebumps apocrypha!

This wasn't a spooky book in any way, and in fact is pretty darn far from Goosebumps and the like, but as it turns out much like Jordan Peele, Robert Stine started his writing career as a humorist under the name "Jovial" Bob Stine. We recount two of his books in this episode How to Be Funny and 101 Vacation Jokes. These are both just...

Geesebumps 4: The Girl Who Cried Monster (Goosebumps #8)
Tuesday Sep 01, 2020
Tuesday Sep 01, 2020
It's a R. L. Stine's meta-narrative masterpiece The Girl Who Cried Monster on the chopping block today! Landings weren't stuck, but the discussion of otherness and the intersection of identity was pretty dope. Also, we got to enjoy our first Goosebumps anti-hero which is great.

Tuesday Sep 01, 2020
Tuesday Sep 01, 2020
We're dipping our toes into Fear Street #1, The New Girl, by R. L. Stine! We discuss obsession, the biomechanics of hand stands, and how frustrating it is that his best friend isn't the main character! It's a laugh every ten seconds! Probably.
