Weekly Roundup With Alex & Dan

It's the end of an era! As storylines start closing down (and new ones start spinning up!), the dynamic duo of the south coast review one of Netflix's most popular UK-based dromedies (Drama / Comedy!). How did we feel about Otis and Maeve / Otis and Ruby? Do we still root for the Groff's as they continue to find themselves following the stellar writing of season 3? Do we feel every character had their best pay off and found their place in the sun (no, they didn't! But which ones do we think got burned by a rushed season?). As usual, Alex & Dan share some of their own adolescent stories of woe and worry - if you'd like to share some of yours, the more the merrier - contact details below! Also - did you ever read those sex comic panels at the back of that awful newspaper in the 90s? Yeah, us neither..... #GITS

This week, Alex & Dan take to the sofa to provide their thoughts on the American rock band formed in Poway, California - Blink 182 and their latest album One More Time.

Including telling music critics to "do one" and as always, the dynamic south coast duo reminisce about their youth back in the early 2000s - it can only be another episode of OTT! #GITS

This week and this year it’s a VERY special Halloween episode - taking to the studio, Alex & Dan this time interview the premier Ghost Touring Organisation of the South Coast of the UK - Dan and Andy from the Southern Ghost Society! Discussing guardian nurse apparitions who watch over naughty boys with slingshots, most haunted hospitals in Italy with errie messages from the ether - to sleep overs in Britain's most haunted houses and spooky school houses for the feral child - there's plenty of discussions around haunted hot spots around the UK and the South Coast! What does it take to run a Ghost Investigation? What should you do and what shouldn't you do when you attend an event? As we get towards the business-end of the epsiode, the conversation goes deep around what the group as a whole believe are ghosts, ghouls and apparitions - and we revisit one of our listener's haunting videos from a previous Halloween episode, where Andy and the group discuss what they think they can hear, once the audio has be

This week, Alex & Dan hand in their homework papers following a request from a listener to review the latest Table Top Fantasy film adaptation of the world-renowned and much loved Dungeons and Dragons - this outing being the latest film Hono(u)r Among Thieves! Discussing their niavity around the D&D world and whether it helped or hindered their thoughts of the film, the dynamic duo blunder their way through D&D lore and Easter Eggs, discussing their favourite bits, not so favourite bits - and you guessed it - thanks to the power of social media, some of your thoughts too!

Cast your spells and watch your mana overflow, as the podcast still reels from the past shark-infested episode and Dan's misdemeanours! #GITS

This week we're partying like its 1999 with a review some time in the making! Hot off the last couple of years 'worth of sea faring thrillers and horror films, Alex & Dan go back to a simpler time - where intelligent sharks stalked from the shadows and hunted in shallow water.... It's time for the Deep Blue Sea review! From unexpected rappers stealing the show, to similarites and analogies of the duo's favourite dinosaur-themed disaster film franchise, Alex & Dan once more discuss their favourite bits, not so favourite bits and thanks to the power of social media - some of yours too! It was a simpler time and there's yet again (!) another segue around the wonders of Blockbuster and the world of VCR tape machines! There's an incredibly unfortunate familiar face from the MCU who simply can't catch a break in this film - and Alex asks an important question from the outset. Also, why is Dan not going to be spending his down time watching teenagers on a boat....? You have to l

This week, Alex & Dan look back at some of their favourite TV shows - but not with fond memories, but confusion and disdain! How can main characters not remember meeting in their origin stories? Key plot devices are seemingly forgotten and the realities which these characters reside in, have no consistency?

They're treacherous places after hearing about this lot! #Onthetopic #TWRAD #Southcoastsounds #Conspiracytheories #Coincidences #Rabbithole #podcast #southsea #portsmouth #UK #Spotify Did we miss anything?

This week Alex & Dan follow the rabbit hole where this time we arrive at Cryptids: those elusive creatures that defy scientific explanation and captivate our imaginations! In this episode, we delve into the fascinating world of these mysterious beings, exploring their origins, sightings, and the enduring myths surrounding them. As we unravel the mysteries behind these cryptids, we discuss the scientific theories and investigations that have attempted to uncover their existence. We examine the role of cryptozoology, the study of hidden animals, in shedding light on these mysterious creatures and the controversies surrounding the field. Are these cryptids figments of our collective imagination, or do they hold the secrets of undiscovered species yet to be revealed? Or are they something different altogether? Also it's another week and we discuss Dan's unlikely impression of Stevie Wonder - and whether Jason Statham's nemesis resides in the murky depths of the oceans with some voice messages..

This week, the South Coast Duo return from the mean streets of Old Portsmouth, fresh from their On The Go episode (link below!) to provide their spoilerific thoughts on the third [and currently final] outing of the rag tag misfits who have been entrusted with saving the galaxy! Alex has made no secret how he felt about Volume 2 - has this changed now? How does this sit with the rest of Phase 5 and are we as an audience suffering from Superhero fatigue? Also - Alex & Dan want to know, in true segue fashion, do you own an E-Scooter? And Gary - let us know - do you REALLY think this is the best trilogy? Not Tom Holland's version of Spider-Man? Tears are shed and as we venture towards the end of the episode, it takes a steep nose dive around vampires and erections... you've been warned listener! GITS
