And now, thanks to Flop House Super-fan Kseniya, we have this answer to a question no one asked!

Episode #77 - Skyline

WE'RE BACK. Elliott's globetrotting, Stu's evening shifts, and Dan's almost-an-actual-writing-career couldn't keep us off the Internetwaves for long. Will our 77th episode be an audio classic on the level of Talking Heads '77? Only time will tell. Meanwhile, Stu tries out a new cool guy/annoying mouth sounds persona, Elliott pitches a chocolate-based Terminator sequel, and Dan keeps us up-to-date on important developments in the world of Penny meeting a dinosaur.

No New Episode

Elliott's been off gallivanting around France, and Dan's been hard at work at a super-secret writing project, so - with two of the three Floppers out of commission - we've had to push back this week's episode. However, we hope to be back with all of The Original Peaches next week.

Episode #76 - Third Annual Awards Floptacular

We've broken our curse, with our first Academy Awards-in-review show that doesn't have terrible audio problems, although it has our usual staying-on-topic problems. Meanwhile Stuart reveals looking-glass Hitler's nefarious plot, Elliott talks about previous winners of the Twix-sponsored Twixie Awards, and Dan unravels a riddle wrapped in an enigma wrapped in Inspector Gadget.

Listen to Dan discuss the truly terrible young adult book City of Bones as a guest host on the Read it and Weep podcast. Also, it's a two-parter, so he'll be back next week, even grumpier from having to deal with a few hundred more pages of dreck.
