The Baby-sitters Club Club

There's a new girl in Stoneybrook named Ashley Wyeth, and she's captured the attention of a certain young babysitter named Claudia. But, more importantly, there's a newcomer to the podcast as well named Goliath Hardbody, and we think you listeners are really going to like him. (But please don't fall in love with him and leave the podcast. We need you. You're all we have.) --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Nothing matters. Everyone is afraid. We're lucky we've even lived long enough to see today, and in another hundred years, none of us will be here. This one is kinda a bummer. Sorry. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

There's a snake in the grass in Stoneybrook this week, and he's got his treacherous eyes on our sweet Mary Anne Spier. Loads to discuss this week including: the X-Men's Wolverine, Negging, demigods with either no or two penises, and of course, the blossoming love between Logan and Mary Anne. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

If there's something strange in Dawn's house... who you gonna call? The Baby-sitter's Club Club! This week, the girls (and by extension, the boys) dive deep into the world of paranormal activity, cause there's a ghost y'all, and it's living in Dawn's crawl space, and it's eating ice cream, and doing a bunch of other things you'd expect a 9-year-old boy to do. On unrelated news, 9-year-old Nicky Pike keeps disappearing and hiding in an unknown location. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

The boys are back, but I'm not talking about the boys Stacey is crazy about, I'm talking about Jack and Tanner, who read "Boy-Crazy Stacey" this week. This shouldn't come as any surprise to you if you've listened to the last seven episodes, but they have a hard time staying on topic. Lots to discuss this week: bee theory, Kanye West, Victorian literature, and a surprise visit from Jack's secret British accent. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

Tanner and Jack meet to discuss book seven of The Baby-Sitter's Club series, "Claudia and Mean Janine" and things get MEAN. This probably won't surprise you, but one of them identifies strongly with the fun, cool, and charming Claudia, and one of us is an insufferable, pedantic nerd. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

Love! Marriage! Last minute 'spaghetti things' in the kitchen! It all happens this week when Jack and Tanner sit down to discuss book six of The Baby-sitter's Club, "Kristy's Big Day"! I hope you like Tearful Moments because you're gonna be drowning in our tears (well, Tanner's tears at least) this week. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

Tanner and Jack travel all the way to Germany, the birthplace of modern Lutheranism, to discuss the thinly veiled religious text that is book five of The Baby-sitter's Club, "Dawn and the Impossible Three." Tanner has a few too many helles biers and ends up role playing as an adult escort. Things get a little weird. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jack and Tanner discuss book four of The Baby-Sitter's Club, "Mary Ann Saves the Day." From what though? Is the Stoneybrook jewel thief back in action? Has The Agency risen to power again, threatening to destroy the club once and for all? Is it just a spat between a few friends based on a misunderstanding? You'll have to listen to find out! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week, Jack and Tanner get to the bottom of the truth about Stacey, and uncover a few truths about themselves along the way. Just kidding! They definitely don't have the emotional intelligence required for any sort of meaningful introspection. They just make dumb jokes instead. Special thanks to Baby Boy #1 Scott Lamb for the theme tune, and Baby Girl #1 Andrea Hickey for the cover art! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack and Tanner go fully CSI on the quiet town of Stoneybrook, Connecticut and try to get to the bottom of a 30-year-old cold case involving a rash of high-profile burglaries. In the course of their investigation, they discover a dark secret about one of the town's young residents, Alan Gray. (The secret is that he likes Kristy.)  Special thanks to our very first Baby Boy, Scott Lamb, for the theme music (https://twitter.com/scottlamb). --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support Learn more about your ad choices.

Jack and Tanner sit down to discuss book one in the "Baby-sitters Club" series, "Kristy's Great Idea," and try to get to the bottom of what Kristy's idea is exactly, and why it's so great.

A big dumb idiot and his brilliant, charming friend discuss the classic Baby-Sitters Club novels of Ann M. Martin in chronological order. Get ready to look with new eyes at the timeless adventures of Kristy, Mary Anne, Claudia, Stacey, and I guess Dawn. And probably Mallory too. Fine, and Jessi. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jack-shepherd8/support
