    Teen Wolf - Howling For You

    HellOOoooOOOOoo Frequent Flyers, and Welcome aboard our 99th episode, Teen Wolf.

    We're back in High School, and it's as tough as ever. Sometimes you just don't fit in, and it has nothing to do with the time you went crawling through the woods with your bestie looking for half a corpse and then got bitten by a werewolf. 
    Ok, maybe it has something to do with that. 
    But look, puberty is tough - you get hair in places there wasn't hair before...and...wow that's...everywhere. Your palms? Bro...
    And you start to notice people in a different way. Like the new girl in class, whose dad shot you with a crossbolt...and...
    damn Wolfager, puberty super sucks for you.

Enjoyable group of Canuck ladies

In my quest to bring some of my listening home - i.e. Canadian podcasts to add to my addiction - I came across Flight School. The personalities of the hosts is key for me and I'm happy with all that I've heard from these ladies so far. I've already introduced my partner to a show they recommended and she's hooked. Thanks for making my Can Con podcast list more listenable!

Keep your eyes on the skies - and your ears on Flight School!

One of the best podcasts about television shows out there! Instead of picking a show and talking about it ad nasuseum, these wonderful hosts pick a new show every episode and discuss the series' pilot episode before deciding if it should be grounded or if it's clear for take-off. A great mix of shows-you-may-have-missed and well-recieved critical darlings allows Flight School to avoid the dreaded podcast-slump. I won't miss an episode!
