Dear listeners,   On this annual parade of consumerism, glitter and booze-fuelled social overkill, why not take a much needed moment away from your family and "loved ones" to listen to Sam and Luci try to persuade me that Chrstmas isn't utterly terrible.   Did they succeed, only the Christmas Day arrest reports can tell.   Humbugs and Merry Christmas to the lot of you.   Andrew.

It's Halloween, so in this episode the lads lock themselves in Sam's loft with beer and pies and battle it out to decide which movie monster is mightiest! There's some great movie recommendations to sink your fangs into, including Alien, Hellraiser, Night of the Hunter, It Follows, The Grudge, Christine, The Matrix, American Werewolf in London, Nightmare on Elm Street, The Thing, 28 Days Later, Night of the Living Dead and many many more. Many thanks to Brewdod Beers, Adnams, Aldi and Sainsbury's for the beer, all of which we had to either buy or shoplift because no-one has sponsored us yet. Pies and Scotch eggs supplied by Bentley's of Pudsey. Top notch fodder.

Earlier this month the intrepid denizens of The Dysfunction Room set off in search of a place more bleak, more dispossessed and further from home than Crow Crag. It was found with ease within the bounds of Leeds.  Fortunately succour was found in the safe haven of The Hyde Park Book Club, home to a cast of hosts offering bright libation and a dark tale. Here's the rude outcome of our trip to see Withnail & I, one of the most iconic films ever made.   General notes: Through this episode we mention the following bits and pieces, some or none relate directly to Withnail & I We originally claimed that we were in Coffee Raid, a hip coffee bar in Leeds that is actually called Coffee RAND. We weren't, we were in the Opposite Cafe which is a hip coffee bar next door. We then moved on to The Hyde Park Book Club, we at least got the name right on that first time. Films and TV shows mentioned: Brazil, Commitments, Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, Whistle and I'll Come To You, Kes, Scum, Cathy Come Home, Pla

Episode 2: Hard Crisps for Sex Games This episode of The Dysfunction Room was casually recorded in the illustrious upstairs room of The Rutland Arms in Sheffield.

Sam tells us about his visit to the dirty south and The Design Museum and we talk about tattoos and phobias. For those that need to qualify and quantify our irrational fears further, you may want to google megalophobia, thalassophobia and ailurophobia.  We talk about books by Brian K Vaughn, Ray Bradbury, Raymond Briggs and JG Ballard     Andrew peeks inside the expansive ground of street art including the now absent Westgate Festival Mural in Exeter and the works of Sheffield locals Phlegm and Kid Acne.     Sam enthuses about No Children by the Mountain Goats and Luci holds forth on the Theremin. Amidst all that we skim lightly across such erudite subjects as fisherman couture, superheroes, dying words, prison sinks and Sam
