The Baby-Sitters Club Club
It takes a lot to surprise two boys who've encountered every form of babysitting from leopards to Tiny Yoda to that time Jake Kuhn fell down a well and had to babysit himself for a few days. But even these hardened babysitting veterans were put through their paces by this literal island of babies (plus, this one dude), who are sat — within an inch of their tiny lives — by the unflappable, incandescent force of babysitting that is the sisters Mary and Jean Wallace. We frickin' loved this one.Music credits:"Fairytale Adventure," by Praded“The Prophecy,” by Fox BeatThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music.

One huge fan, one reluctant cohost, and one perfect babysitting movie makes for one particularly fine day over here at BSCC headquarters, where we're talking about a surprisingly polarizing 1996 Rom-Com starring Michelle Pfeiffer and George Clooney. This one has a deep dark chocolate layer, LSD, and a surprising visitor from Stoneybrook!Music credits:"TV Show Opener," by Shorties“You Gotta Have Theremin and Ukulele,” by Squidlord"Life Is Fun," by J Hunger"Monsters Are Coming," by Tunes To Go“The Prophecy,” by Fox BeatThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Bye Bye Empire for the outro music.

No jokes or digressions this week, because we've got an imposing amount of critical theory related to the seminal '80s babysitting text, "He-Man & She-Ra: A Christmas Special," to cover. Buckle your seatbelts and strap in for a dry but informative disquisition on themes of duality and identity in the Kingdom of Eternia, a wearisome but exhaustive analysis of the embedded power structures on Horde World, and a lengthy historical account of the origins of "Snout Spout."Music credits:"He-Man theme," He-Man Official"Saving the Day," He-Man Official"Call to Action," He-Man OfficialThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Bye Bye Empire for the outro music.

The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed. Along the way, he did some pretty heavy-duty babysitting, took a bunch of mescaline, and shot everyone in a town. This week, the boys dive deep into the first book of Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" series in their ongoing quest to ferret out babysitting wherever it may lurk.

The boys (and special guest Jaime Green) make a valiant effort to keep the rating on this one down and appease the censors, but end up with what can only be described as a raunchy, titillating, supercharged s*x romp. "The Governess Game" is a very naughty novel that does indeed have some babysitting in it but really is mostly frenching and groping and generally getting to third base. Draw up a warm bubble bath, light some candles, and settle in for a legitimately wild ride.Music credits:"Boccherini String Quartet Minuet," by Orchestralis"Serenade," by AG Soundtrax"Voice of Spring," by AG Soundtrax“Typewriter Blues,” by AllenGrey"Paganini Caprice 24 Sacrilegious EDM Remix," by The Flabby Fish"Moonlight Sonata," by Audiophile TraxThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music.

The year is 1988 and it is prophesied that a bikini baby will bring about the downfall of an evil sorceress named Bad Mother. Consequently, Bad Mother attempts to steal the foretold child for a ritual murder, which is very bad babysitting. After the child escapes, Bilbo Baggins and his best friend Val Kilmer look after her until she can fulfill her destiny. This is very good babysitting. And when there's good babysitting happening, you can be certain that the Babysitters Club Club will be there! And so we were. This week, Willow.Music credits:"Adventurer's Inn," by Simming“Stardust,” by Fox Beat Stock Music“Where We Belong,” by Equalize“Chopstick Slapstick,” by OurMusicBoxThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music.

Can you babysit your own children? What if you're pretending to be someone else? Is it in any way creepy to disguise yourself as an elderly nanny and spy on your ex-wife? These are just a few of the nuanced and complex babysitting questions that are posed by the iconic 1993 babysitting film Mrs. Doubtfire, and as usual, the boys bring their sensitive and thoughtful insights to bear on this important cultural artifact in a way that is both thought-provoking and intelligible.Music credits:"Cute Commercial," by Luca Francini"Sexy," by Light Sound"An Epic Cinema," by Alex BirdThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Superbrat for the outro music.

Much like the local mall where a giant meat monster does a big battle in the hit TV show "Stranger Things," this episode could be best described as a disaster scene. Someone forgot to take notes, someone else was in a salty mood because of work, and someone who we thought was going to help us never showed up! Anyway, Steve Harrington from Stranger Things is a famous babysitter and famous babysitters is what we talk about, so we tried to talk about him for an hour. Good luck listening!Music credits:"Stranger 80s," by Orchestralis“Where We Belong,” by Equalize“Stardust,” by Fox Beat Stock Music“School Music Video,” by DjHappYThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Bye Bye Empire for the outro music.

One of the great babysitting novels of all time, Cormac McCarthy's "The Road" is a story about an ongoing act of ambulatory babysitting right at the very end of the world. And it's just as fun as it sounds! Now, in glorious stereo sound, you can hear two complete buffoons talk about it. What BSC novel is this based on? What tweaks could we make to make this a little bit more fun and funky? Is this, to use a technical term, "Good Clean Baby-Sitting Fun"? Answers to all these questions and more you never had inside.Music credits:"Majestic Journey," by Allen Grey“Typewriter Blues,” by AllenGrey“You Gotta Have Theremin and Ukulele,” by SquidlordThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Bye Bye Empire for the outro music.

Aquatic babysitting is one of the hardest types of babysitting there is, as Dawn and Claudia famously learned in Babysitters Island Adventure; as Kristy notoriously discovered in Babysitters on Board; and as Kevin Costner comes to realize in the hit 1995 film about boat babysitters called Waterworld. This one's got lots of useful tips for babysitting at sea, a helpful guide to what you can do with your Camel Cash, and a totally unnecessary discussion of Dominoes' iconic character "The Noid."Music credits:"Tragedy at Sea," by Bransboynd“Showtime,” by Stockwaves“Overture,” by Lionheart“Summer Memories,” by Trixtor and PantsmodeThanks as always to original Baby Boy Scott Lamb for the intro music, and to Bye Bye Empire for the outro music.
