The Shipping Forecast

Episode Notes This week, a very sleep deprived group of Forecasters explore the "Sold to One Direction" genre, a small but very amusing category in the Archive. It turns out many people from across history have been sold to boy bands over time, we still don't know why but we do answer hard hitting questions, like Who got the best deal for selling their child to One Direction (or another boy band) Can Ten Pound pay off a mortgage with money to spare? How did we find a canon compliant One Direction fic?? All this and more, on this weeks Shipping Forecast And don't forget to watch us on YouTube, where we play visual novels and mystery games on our off weeks Enjoying the show?

Episode Notes His coming has been foreshadowed for some time. This week, we talk about F1, doing our best to wrangle Nick away from talking about the car side of it to focus on the surprisingly popular shipping of the drivers.

Episode Notes Grace has a need, a need for more of the himbo Dunk from Knights of the Seven Kingdoms.

Episode Notes Grace and James saw Zootopia at the end of last year and have been meaning to discuss it ever since, join us as we barely do that, and instead tangent to other furry adjacent topics; including the objectively better film The Bad Guys 2, Reg the fox mascot of a local railway station, and what we think Keir Starmer's fursona would be.

Episode Notes This week, we return to the post apocalyptic wasteland to talk about New Vegas, and the second season of Fallout.

Episode Notes This week, the Forecasters discuss Frankenstein, which James has only seen 2 hours before we recorded!

Seriously though, Del Toro is a genius but theres no way that works as a water tower.

Episode Notes This week, we return to check in on the Wednesday fandom. We had a good time with the first season but time has passed and only 3 characters really stuck with us. Join us as Grace explains the second season and its new British men, Nick remains disappointed as an original Addams fan, and James disregards the whole thing in favour of searching for more 'grumpy one in love with the sunshine one' content.

Join us, as we answer hard hitting questions, like What films would you watch if you have a concussion? Did the macallisters have mob ties? Feathers or Scales?

Episode Notes This week, James talks at Grace and Nick about Expedition 33, which has been rapidly re-writing his brain chemistry and he desperately needs an outlet to talk about it. Heavily spoilers throughout, I cannot stress this enough, I do recommend playing the game before listening to the episode, we're good but we're not that good. Go play it first. Do it, for those who come after. But if you do stick with us, join us as we answer hard hitting questions like: What would be worse; Wood or Baguette? Why do Dead Wives look like that?

This week, the Forecasters take their very limited knowledge of K-pop and try and find more content for K-Pop Demon Hunters. Both Grace and James left this film wanting more, and its pretty clear the internet felt the same given they've managed 5000 fics in a month! Join us as we answer hard hitting questions, like Can a fandom be this big without a core yaoi pair? What were the Spice Girls doing to help the Honmon? What is a Maknae?

This week, the crew get together to talk about inanimate objects, and fics involving them. Because of the UK heatwave this is an unhinged one, also James had mic issues so apologies for that. Join us as we answer hard hitting questions, like: Why did Dr Jones have the bag of sand? Which Ice Lolly is best? Will this be our first YouTube apology? Will Nick and James believe anything about tampons? Is our pigeon impression any good? Could you build a Steam Powered Fuck Machine?

This week, Grace and James set out to undoom their yaoi. Today we're looking for couples that were doomed by their media but the fandom chose to ignore that.

This week, we really tried to record a Pride special talking about ships that had been either queer baited or were heavily queer coded but not canon. However, we got side-tracked pretty hard. In hindsight, it was a mistake to open with Bert and Ernie because that really sent us off on some wild tangents. Enjoying the show? Got a fic you'd like us to read?

This week, in Part 2 of the "Grace is on Holiday and its dangerous to go alone", Nick and James continue trying to understand complicated fandoms, this time taking a look at the Metal Gear Solid Universe.

This week, we travel back to the mid 00s, to relive 14 year old James' favourite game series, Devil May Cry.

This week (admittedly late, blame James), we revisit the Team Fortress 2 fandom, which was a delightful exploration last time. Now that TF2 has received its first (comic) update in seven years, will we see any changes in the fandom? We also ask other hard hitting questions, like; Is the Marilyn Manson rumour from high schools across the world still alive? Is it even possible to do that? We ask Wikipedia.

This week, Grace is away so Nick & James are left to be unhinged about Disco Elysium. Now that Nick has beaten the game, we'll be talking spoilers pretty heavily so do bear that in mind before joining us on our journey.

We're back, our haitus was slightly longer than usual because everyone got ill one week after another. This extra long episode was mostly a thinly veiled excuse to gush about Wallace & Gromit, but we do talk about other things we enjoyed last year we didn't get a chance to last year, including: The Thing Wallace & Gromit The Battle of Britain(?) Wallace & Gromit The Beekepper Nosferatu but that will probably get its own episode down the line, lets let the fandom cook for a bit more And of course Wallace & Gromit. Enjoying the show?

A brief discussion between Grace and James about what men really get up to in the bathroom. This one is pretty crude so feel free to skip if that isn't your jam. Real episode is tomorrow.

This week, the Forecasters discuss the ever relevant topic of which robots we would sleep with.

This week, the chaos isn't even our fault! Last opportunity we had to sit down to record things were kicking off in the UK and honestly we wern't in the right mindset for it. So here is something we recorded a month ago, where we do some quotev quizzes to find out: What kind of Faerie we are? What is your Fursona? 10 Signs you might be a furry? And as always, we dick around as we go Normal episodes back soon!

Hey everyone, This is bonus content that didn't make it into the episode, we made Nick take a buzzfeed quiz to find out which Dead Boy Detective he is and we decided to all take part. The answers will not shock you. On the way we shill for the worlds best aquarium, this isn't even sponsored but they are very good all the same, go visit if you're ever in Yorkshire. The discussion after the 15 minute mark was in the original Dead Boy Detective episode, it just adds context so it felt right to reinclude it. https://www.buzzfeed.com/emopenguin30/dead-boy-detectives-character-quiz Quiz is here if you want to play along, thanks to Buzzfeed for answering lifes great mysteries.

This week, all three of the Forecasters unite once again to talk about a topic close to our hearts; British Twinks that Solve Supernatural Mysteries. Join us in our Dead Boy Detectives episode, as Grace gets so invested in a ship that she forgets we're recording. James comes to terms with the fact he is 'The Charles' (but only in that he is posh and bossy), and Nick embarks on a quest to find a Dead Boys/Columbo fic, and learns how to serve cunt along the way.

This week, in our second failed attempt to get all of us in a room at the same time, Nick and James opt to do the opposite of the last episode by talking about our favourite Milves. Join us as we discuss: The chaos behind the scenes MILFs A brief lesson in norse mythology DILFs Why are Isekais so badly named Any many many more things If you've got a fic you'd like us to read, send it over!

This week Grace and James, in a very late Father's Day special, take some time to answer the age old question: Who has the most daddy issues? Join us as we take unexpected tangents into real world history, James mixes up something Graces really likes with something Grace really hates, and figure out if the CEO of Red Bull writes Yaoi (probably not). If anyone can find the fic Grace is referring to as "The MCU but The Handmaids Tale" PLEASE send it in, if we can reunite it with her it'd be great.

We interrupt our usual podcast to bring you an emergency alert, remain indoors and seek shelter from the Fallout. This week we return to the Fallout universe. Last time we did a Fallout episode we titled it "Deathclaw Underboob" because we mostly saw Deathclaw content. Now, its the Ghouls turn. This was supposed to be the Fallout TV episode, but that doesn't stop Nick from staying exclusively in the New Vegas tag. If you've got a fic you'd like us to read, send it over!

This week, we conclude our Dungeon Meshi coverage perfectly timed with their season finale (which needless to say, we haven't seen at the time of recording). Join us as we talk about where we've been over the past month and talk about the three fics from Dungeon Meshi we read in that break. Grace takes us to a modern magic AU, where monsters are real and so is the thriving monster themed sex toy industry, in 'Accurate Models'. Nick answers a question that has plagued penis-owners for generations ("at what point does it stop being 'just a shake'?") in 'Sword Fighting'. And James once again set out for yuri but found political intrigue in 'Feathers and Fur'. We don't know how this keeps happening to him, but he's very pleased Fics and Timestamps* Accurate Models by Kurikuri (23:45) Sword fighting by Randyrobot (47:10) Feathers and Fur by IzutsumiSupremacy (TerminalMiraculosis) (59:00) Chapter four came out the same day we were set to record, so apologies this isn't a full look but I love what I've seen so far! *some podcast players don't like hyperlinks, but you can find these on our tumblr too.

This week, Grace and James take some time to discuss Real Person Fics. James does know that it is RPF and not RFP, but somehow he manages to get it wrong every single time it comes up in this episode. Join us as we learn about the hottest poet of the 17th century, Emperor Nero's thirst traps, debate who to ship David Mitchell with, and many many more.

This week, the forecasters get into Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon. We came for the fantastic autistic representation and Marcille/Fallin, and while we found that, we also found a surprising amount of thirst for all three foot seven of Chilchuk Tims.

Please sing the title to "Bad Romance", thanks. This week, against all odds, we have assembled a Part Two episode for What We Do In The Shadows. Join us at we talk about our favourite fics: James unlocks a secret OTP he didn't know he could want or like in 'I Love You, Colin Robinson'. Nick goes back in time to read Arthur Conan Doyle's very own WWDITS Fanfic, in 'what we do in the shadows (victorian edition)'. And Grace shows us how a Nandor/Guillermo confession would realistically go down, in 'Be Kind, Rewind'. Fics and Timestamps* I Love You, Colin Robinson by darkshrimemotions (8:30) Part Four is now up, but when we recorded there were only three parts! what we do in the shadows (victorian edition) by meltingthroughthesky (41:30) Be Kind, Rewind by SeptSapphire (59:20) *some podcast players don't like hyperlinks, but you can find these on our tumblr too.
