The Spooky Sleepover: 13 Barbershops, Silent Submarines & Weird News

This week on Killers, Cults & Queens, it’s time for another Spooky Sleepover — and things get unexpectedly nautical.Nikki and Cheryl settle in for their weekly catch-up, covering everything from grim January weather and vegetarian resolutions (briefly derailed by a certain sausage roll), to live orchestras, IMAX screens, melted chocolate disasters, and the absolute audacity of putting Smarties in popcorn.Cheryl joins us live on location from rehearsals for the Adult Panto tour, sharing tales from life on the road, missing home comforts, and uncovering what may be the greatest mystery of all: why one small town needs so many barber shops. Is it innocent? Is it suspicious? Should Detective Cheryl be on the case? The jury’s out.Then it’s time for the rabbit holes — and this week they go deep.Cheryl becomes utterly consumed by the secret world of British submarines: how they’re built in giant slices, welded with terrifying precision, tested in silence, and engineered to be quieter than the ocean itself… quieter even than shrimp. Equal parts fascinating and existentially horrifying.Meanwhile, Nikki brings us a tale of chaos, celebrity, and seals as we meet Neil the Seal — a teenage elephant seal causing havoc in Tasmania by blocking roads, squashing cones, knocking over bollards, and preventing people from leaving their homes. He’s enormous, unruly, going through puberty, and important enough to have his own marine biologist on speed dial. A true diva of the deep.It’s submarines, seals, touring tales, and cosy chaos — all wrapped up in one very silly, very comforting Spooky Sleepover.Pop the kettle on, get comfy, and join us. 🖤Got a theory?
