Firecrotch & Normcore: THEY LIKE TO WATCH

You know who likes to watch? Santa, that's who: He sees you when you're sleeping. He knows when you're awake. And if you've been pouting, FORGET ABOUT IT. But would Kris Kringle's (and your) attention be better fixed upon the latest high-end Netflix spy thriller?

We sat down with Jesse at a house, in a cow shed with a corrugated iron roof to talk about the season one finale. Who wants to hear about it? Yeah? Well, you're out of luck, 'cause nothing happened, we just knitted and made salads, did some yoga. And no one will tell you different, because we killed the stripper.Can he scuba? Will he buckle under the intellectual scrutiny? Could this be the defining moment of his life? Or it could be what is should be: Nothing at all.BT-Dubz: That's it from Jarmstrong until January, as we're taking a short break. We're not sorry for what we're doing, which is correct, but we're sorry for how it makes you feel. And we're sorry it had to be today.We're doing a live show!

It's the penultimate episode of season one, and the guests are arriving for a destination wedding in an offshore laundry for turning evil into hard currency.We're back with showrunner/wedding planner, Jesse Armstrong. We have a lot of time for him, but there may be certain questions: Securing a considerable level of investment for a Napoleonic history podcast - is that nothing? Can he beat Kendall Roy's morning press-up tally ? And how long does he give it? WHAT?!

Hello, fellow nudie turtles.Napkins on heads to mask the shame and heighten the pleasure as we feast on tasty morsels from Succession's groovy hub.Want the freaky-deaky truth about Tom's black eye?

Hello! This week, we're transatlantic, like a pair of Freddie Laker mother-effers. Sara is in the suburbs of Chicago, and wants to be left alone.

Hey hey hey, my people!Time for another peep through our (smeared) window into the mind behind 'Succession', Jesse Armstrong. We wouldn't say he's the man, but if there were a man - hypothetically - he might look a lot like Jesse.This week, it's episode 3, 'Lifeboats', and a trio of major players enter the stage: Sandy Furness, Stewy Hosseini and Mondale... um, there's no way Shiv is allowing a dog to have a surname. But he's basically a Roy, in all but name.Oh, and we found Roman's personal trainer on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brockyurich/profilecard/?igsh=enMzaHdzYXo5cHpkStay strong, stay in touch.* We want each and every one of you to be innovating, challenging, being bold, being disruptive, bringing us new, original, multiplatform content: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.com* Not all of us are born into good ease: https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCH Hosted on Acast.

Hello! I apologise if my bell summoned you. It's FireCrotch & Normcore here, with another funky chowder! The rewatch with our dear acquaintance Jesse Armstrong continues with season 1, episode 2, Shit Show at the Fuck Factory. Dear Jesse, talk me through your feelings on titles? Am I thinking about it too much? Like the people who thought all the orange in S3E8 was a signal that Kendall was dead? How much analysis is TOO much analysis? I JUST WANT YOU TO LIKE ME. And what about Lawrence's omelette nipples? If you need us to go get sandwiches or coffee OR step up from regional parks and run North America, we can and we will, and that's just an offer on the table.
