Goosebuds

Welcome to Goosebuds! A podcast where your hosts Paul Ritchey, Chad Quandt, and Kevin Cole dig into the Young Adult Literature of Goosebumps by R.L. Stine and give these tomes the deep critique and respect they deserve. Sometimes they get too scared and cover other adjacent 90s books and culture instead. Come join us and re-discover the stories you grew up with or jump in for the first time.

We swear we did our homework; a very nice A+ papier-mâché volcano but a galactic cruiser (stuck on shrink mode as often happens) crashed into our basement and things escalated from there. 

Paul and Chad are joined by writer Marly Halpern-Graser (Thundercats Roar, Aquaman: King of Atlantis, Mad) to talk about beloved Bruce Coville's first book in the miniseries known as Rod Allbright's Alien Adventures: Aliens Ate My Homework. This book has it all: martial arts aliens, Star Trek paralells, surprisingly good discussion about gender and pronouns, the tempation one feels to shake the tiny people in your lunchbox...

OFF TOPICS: none really, we get into the book immediately!

In this episode Chad, Kevin, and Paul review R.L. Stine's Goosebumps 2000: Headless Halloween. It's a story about sociopath teen Brandon Plush who feels no remorse about the lives he destroys. Brandon Plush's endless campaign of mean pranks finally runs into the (literal) dead-end that is Raven's Ravine, but what horrors lurk on the other side? Worm-filled doughnuts for one. Gross. Enjoy this episode and make sure you never make fun of someone for owning a van.

OFF TOPICS: our humble little studios, Who is American McGee?, the Doom Johns, Kevin's secret itch.io, Tarnished Jeff Foxworthy
