Recommended to eat chicken nuggets while listening. Includes mature language.
FROM DEEP WITHIN THE ARCHIVE: a conversation recorded last summer about Carson and Nick's feelings on various installments of the Indiana Jones franchise.

Welcome to the Spook-Easy season!

This episode about amusement parks will take you through a few turns—much like a rollercoaster.

In this episode we force Nick to confront his inner demons, explore deep space and the lost video diaries of Captain Picard, and unravel the mermaid murder mystery that inspired an unreleased Lana Del Rey song.

Includes mature language.
Welcome back! To a new season of Carson and Nick's conversations, cultivated just for you. For this first episode, we're taking a look back into the archives so far.

Start off the new year strong with Carson at the end of her rope, ranting about Nick’s need to cause problems. Don’t worry—Nick didn’t bother to listen.

Oh God, who let Carson out of her cage and gave her permission to rant about books for an hour?! She was sealed for our protection! What foolish man would allow this to happen?
