Hello! We're back with a fresh episode all about Paranormal TV. If you're into ghost hunting TV shows then you don't wanna miss this one. It's a long one but a good one! We didn't want to cut out all the good stuff so its stuffed full of fun.
Listen with a notebook so you can write down all the TV (and films, 'cause we can't help ourselves) we mention. You can also get in touch and we'll send you a list!!! yes, Danielle wrote a list! SHOCK!
Anyway, we love you little undead fishes and we hope you're having an a-OK 23rd Lockdown <3
And remember, Black lives still matter, trans women are women, and down with the patriarchy!!

Hello little undead fishes! This episode is all about Non-Western magical beliefs, also known as 'Cave-art and a little (magical) town in India'.
Danielle goes back to her roots and get all archaeological on you and Melanie brings us a most interesting tale of the Black Magic Centre of India*!
Join us and maybe you'll learn something, maybe you'll just laugh at us, but something we definitely have occurred.
We love you STILL!
<3
*There's a little numerical error in Melanie's story that she will address on the next episode in our Updates section. Darling just mis-spoke and said 26 thousand instead of the actual number 2,600 (this will make sense when you listen).

Greeting little fishes! We have for you our Halloween episode for 2020 about POSSESSION. In this thrilling episode Danielle details the circumstances by which you might get yourself a Diagnosis of The Devil and Melanie details two really interesting, and totally different, real-life cases of 'possession'. So sit comfortably, grab your glass of wine/body of Christ and listen to Zombie Fishbowl!
Some (minor) housekeeping;
There is some background noise... little demons were running amok (safely) throughout the recording and every so often you here one growl or sing sweetly. I'm sure you can dig it.
Also, Danielle's THING is totally cut from the episode, that is clear when you listen.
And Finally, there is a teeny tiny kinda-spoiler for a (short) film called Host (available on Shudder!) but it's not like a spoiler-spoiler it's just a bit of plot.... BTW you should totally watch Host... it's awesome (they're not paying us to say that we just think it's awesome).
Anyway, Enjoy!!
WE LOVE YOU!

Hello little undead fishies! We're back with an episode all about that really obscure event in world history known as Y2K and the computer error that threatened to ruin everyone's new years parties!
WARNING: Shit gets political.
As much as we might try (unsuccessfully) to steer clear of topical, controversial, divisive topics we can't help ourselves in this episode. So if you don't dig that sort of thing, maybe skip this one and come back next week when the topic is in no way political, moral, or controversial. That said, we know that if you're already an avid listener, none of what is revealed is gonna come as a surprise, but a heads-up never goes amiss. Love ya!

We're back with an all new episode dedicated to 'Reincarnation'. We bring in the history of the idea, folklore, religious dogma, and science! From the Aboriginal Dream Time to the Matrix, we cover the bases and hopefully teach you some stuff. Enjoy! (and sorry about the shouty-weirdness of Danielle, she blames the seagulls)
Oh yeah, trigger warning: If you don't like tooth-talk, you might wanna skip over Danielle's Thing.

Greetings little undead fishes, here is Part 2 of our Lovecraft splurge with a very tired and somewhat delusional Danielle rattling off a list of Lovecraft-inspired pop-culture STUFF and Melanie desperately trying to keep up! It's a bit of fun for ya. Enjoy and WE LOVE YOU!

We split this episode up into two parts like Cthulhu splits his (im)mortal enemies in half to bring you TWO delicious new 'casts. In Part 1 we talk about the man himself, HP, and no, we don't shy away from the elephant (or Old One) in the room... his massive racism. OK SO enjoy it, little fishes, because to understand Lovecraft is to understand the weirdness which is, Zombie Fishbowl!
LOVE YOU!
