Firecrotch & Normcore: THEY LIKE TO WATCH

Gondoliers Can Smell Blood. And Amy Gledhill (TOADS)

Happy one-year anniversary to They Like to Watch! To celebrate, we completely forgot until our sweetest listener emailed to remind us.


We visit the Sperm Kings, as a couple, but then go our separate ways for Nordic Noir and Rylan Clark. Try to guess who chose what. 


We also talk to the truly hilarious Amy Gledhill about her excellent Blap - BLAP! - Toads.

  • FRINGEWASH #1: With Jessie Cave

    56:57|
    Sara's at the Edinburgh Fringe - or is she? So, it's the first of our summer specials where we talk TV with the festival's most dazzling comedians. Today, it's Jessie Cave. We loved her previous Edinburgh show, Sunrise, and she's back at the Fringe with *two* shows, An Ecstatic Display and a work-in-progress with her partner/ex (delete as applicable) and baby-pappa, Alfie Brown. You may know Jessie from her many TV appearances and acting roles, or as Lavender Brown in various Harry Potter movies and other I.P. She's funny, she's insightful, she's candid, and she's got all the talent. It's all very triggering to Sara, but she'd still like to be Jessie's BFF.See Sara at the Fringe: https://bit.ly/3vRVCw3A more gracious podcaster would have linked to Jessie's Fringe shows first: https://bit.ly/jtltw and https://bit.ly/jtltw2Email us: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comReduce the debt Sara is accruing in Edinburgh: https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCHEdited by Annabel Port https://annabelport.substack.com/
  • Mark Monroe - The Documentary Whisperer

    53:40|
    Summer vibes, everyone! SUMMER VIBES. We're bridging out of usual vibes into summer vibes. We spoke this week to HOLLYWOOD INSIDER Mark Monroe, about being Hollywood's go-to documentary doctor. You'll be unsurprised to hear we think he really liked us. Plus chat on living separately - we're not divorced, but have we mentioned Sara's up in Edinburgh? - and your usual email contributions. PLUS our podcast plans for the remainder of the summer. Email us: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comHelp Sara pay for a deep clean of the carpets: patreon.com/theyliketowatchEdited by Annabel Emily P.
  • Camilla Whitehill (BIG MOOD)

    48:56|
    Sara is deep in Edinburgh Fringe preparation, so it's a basic bitch episode: You'll get our guest, you'll get your email, then we're OUT. Not that our guest is a basic bitch, she's a real lady (like Easy V, who doesn't come for free.) She is Camilla Whitehill, creator of Channel 4's 'Big Mood'.Be Sara's penpal while she's away in Edinburgh: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comMake the tiniest of dints in the debt Sara will accrue at the Fringe: https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCHEdited by Hamble 'Annabel' Port
  • Sterile, But Not in a Good Way. And Michelle de Swarte (SPENT)

    51:21|
    For the first time in forty-five years, Sara watched football. Despite how momentous this was, she was forbidden from using the experience for her Quick Watch. Instead, she did what all good women do when their husbands TRY TO CONTROL THEM: a pivot to Rashida Jones. Also we talk to the laser-sharp and truly hilarious Michelle de Swarte, whose new show Spent is out now!Write to us: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comHelp us help our refrigerator: patreon.com/theyliketowatchEdited by Naughty Porty from Number 40. Thanks to Patreon darling Miriam for recommending 'Sunny'
  • A Man of Appetites: THE BEAR S3

    48:14|

  • Scent of a Bro. And Daf James (LOST BOYS & FAIRIES)

    56:03|
    Excuse the lack of episode notes, we're on our way out to a thing. Maybe we'll tell you about it. You're going to love Daf, though.INBOX: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comMONEYBOX: https://www.patreon.com/THEYLIKETOWATCHBRAINBOX: Annabel Port
  • My Booty's Out, I'm Pushing My Goods. And Sian Eleri (PARANORMAL: THE VILLAGE THAT SAW ALIENS)

    54:25|
    Dear Cuties,The sun is shining and Sara's personality is more bearable as a result! We fêted Geoff on Father's Day and found a classy docu-series that forced us to confront our own internalized hippyphobia. Plus: We talk to Sian Eleri about her new BBC Three series 'Paranormal: The Village That Saw Aliens'. She helps Sara figure out whether she herself has been (non-anally*) probed and is, over all, a delight. Correspond with us: fuckoff@firecrotchandnormcore.comHelp Sara earn back those £30: patreon.com/theyliketowatchEdited by Annabel Emily Port, whose Substack is the single best thing on the entire internet: https://annabelport.substack.com/* EVERYBODY's gone Surfin' USA, right?
