Sorry to leave you hanging after what you've been through. We opted for a lunchtime episode drop to bring you our number one boy, YOUR number one boy - 'Succession' creator and showrunner, Jesse Armstrong. TODAY: Everything up to when it all goes to s**t TOMORROW: The trauma. But more Jesse, too! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Even if you've already seen the finale (so many feelings. TBD), you won't want to skip this. It's a wide-ranging conversation with Succession director and executive producer, Mark Mylod, spanning his years on the show. It's a fascinating, funny and thoughtful conversation on how Succession is made. PS. We know we're stretching the definition of pre-finale beyond all credibility here. Back tomorrow! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Full of nervous energy as you wait for the final episode? Distract yourself in the company of Mr Charisma... sorry DOCTOR Charisma, Alexander Skarsgård - aka Lukas Matsson - aka Pissy Longstocking (after this podcast) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Apologies for this late-running Saturday Sprinkles, we hope sure you'll forgive us under the circumstances. We manifested some last-minute BoCo that was too good to turn down... In an act of kindness, J. Smith-Cameron (aka Gerri Kellman) carved out a little time for a quick chat. As you'll hear, she was a dream, and there's a beautiful moment between her and Sara. Before that chat with J (Jay?), as many of your contributions as we could squeeze in. And afterwards, we reveal tomorrow's BoCo. It's wild. Enjoy the Mole Woman, slime puppies! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We're very excited. We got to talk to the woman behind former playwright, and current wife of the future U.S. Ambassador to Slovenia (? ), Willa Ferreyra. It's Justine Lupe - look how far she's come! What's it like to be married to a plant that grows on rocks and lives off insects that die inside of him? And how many iPads did she hurl into the Adriatic Sea? Will it be long and hard to follow? F** it! Come on, how bad can it be? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Giant rabbits, the lesser-spotted Iverson, and curly girls are all discussed in our latest BoCo, with the wonderful Natalie Gold. You'll love her. We did. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

To his critics: He is not a demagogue. He is a lauded stage and screen actor, and the man responsible for Succession's terrifying President-Elect to life. It's Justin Kirk! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Did you think you'd pre-grieved, but then collapsed in a sobbing heap watching 'Church and State'? We are here with a hug and a hankie, and a front row seat courtesy of our guest, Dame Harriet Walter - aka Lady Caroline Collingwood. Should we go and pile in? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Your post-election reaction and analysis, plus news about finale week... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We just watched 'America Decides' - a night of good TV, or a forced stare into the rotten soul of western democracy? Don't worry! We also have a warm bath of Frank and Karl for you to wallow in. Something clean and true. And refreshing. Aaaaarrrrgh. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We've just watched 'Tailgate Party', and we wonder if we shouldn't clear the air. Plus, send in the clown - Chuckles the Clown! Our guest is actor Zoë Winters, aka Kerry Castellabate (friend, assistant and adviser to Logan Roy.) Did you spot something that we didn't? Heard something nasty about someone terrible? Should we do a live show for everyone who missed out on BFI tickets? Email us: f***off@firecrotchandnormcore.com Love the deal! LOVE it! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Delayed due to our previously discussed mini-break to Marrakech, it's more of your thoughts on 'Succession'. Expect the usual mix of theorising, objectifying, plus Sara's now heading for restraining orders from both Jesse Armstrong AND Lucy Prebble. Email: f***off@firecrotchandnormcore.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This is going to sell out FAST, so we wanted to give you the heads up. Join 'Succession' creator Jesse Armstrong at BFI Southbank in London, building up to a live screening of the final episode. Tickets go on sale later today (Thurs May 4th), so set an alarm and station yourself in front of a web browser. We're part of this whole shebang too, but we can't say in what capacity. YET. You'll find out soon enough. Details here: https://whatson.bfi.org.uk/Online/default.asp?BOparam::WScontent::loadArticle::permalink=successionfinale Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We just watched "Living+'. Special Kenny is number one boy, but what were the other big swings, and who took a swing-and-a-miss? Plus, we talk to Logan's body man and (best) pal, Colin - actor Scott Nicholson. Spoiler alert: He's wonderful. Does anyone read these shownotes? We don't know. We can't know. But I've got my suspicions. I've got my f***ing suspicions. Just in case, though, it's Sara's birthday. If you're minded to, wish her many happy returns on social media. We want to hear from you for Friday Sprinkles! Email f***off@firecrotch@normcore.com Heads up: It'll probably be Saturday Sprinkles this week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We asked for your thoughts on Kill List, and you gave us hereditary jaws, grief knitwear, a Con-conspiracy and so much more. Plus: A rival to 'Dear Jesse'. Email us: f***off@firecrotchandnormcore.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

“Shorter is better.” ~ Stewy Hosseini “F*** you, too, you pusillanimous piece of f***ing fool’s gold.” ~ Firecrotch & Normcore Our guest on this week’s main episode was the wonderful Arian Moayed, and if you’re still hankering for a wankering, here’s a much longer version of that interview. Includes: * Loads of extra detail on how Succession is made  * A whistlestop tour of Arian’s career, including performing alongside Robin Williams on Broadway * The story of Waterwell, the arts and education non-profit Arian co-founded at the age of 21. https://www.waterwell.org/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We just watched 'Kill List' and if you were expecting an episode almost entirely comprised of Sara objectifying Alexander Skarsgård, you're in for a surprise... because she's objectifying our guest, too - ARIAN MOAYED! Yes! Somehow, we persuaded to Stewy Hosseini to talk to us, and he over-delivers (under challenging circumstances.) We bled the f**ker conversationally dry, so there'll be a bonus episode with lots more about 'Succession', plus his theatre career, Robin Williams, and Waterwell - the art and education non-profit he co-founded - later this week. Email us: f**koff@firecrotchandnormcore.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
