Have y'all noticed how NOT funny most modern romantic comedies are? Amelia and Scotty have. So they look back at the romcoms of their youth and highlight two of their favorites--1987's "Overboard" (starring Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell) and 1993's "So I Married an Axe Murderer" (starring Mike Myers and Nancy Travis)--and discuss how these films exemplify a unique blend of romance and (yes) comedy that, well, you just don't see anymore.

We've got a very non-spooky episode to get y'all gently primed for Spooky Season. Scotty gives a very quick primer on the history of "spiritualism," and then tells Amelia about how one of the movement's most famous adherents--Sir Arthur Conan Doyle--allowed himself to be adorably hoodwinked by a pair of quite imaginative young girls.

Yes, this is the story of the Cottingley Fairies.

Scotty and Amelia are starting a new series on the Pocket Size episodes of The Weirdest Thing. Thinking back to the movies of their youth, they realized there are entire subgenres of films that They Just Don't Make Anymore.

So this week they're taking on the first of those genres--the "Teenage Hijinks" movie--by looking at three examples in particular: "Adventures in Babysitting" (1987), "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" (1986), and "Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead" (1991).

So remember: life moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. TV rots your brains. And nobody leaves this place without singing the blues.
