In what is almost certainly our final upload of the year, the Forecasters opt to do every seasonal episode at once by covering the shipping in Rise of the Guardians.

This episode marks the second time we've ever recorded with all three of us in the same room! A rare feat indeed.

Join us as we figure out what we want for Christmas, and read many (many) stories involving eggs...

Hey guys,

No episode today, but we're posting a bunch of stuff over December so I put this out to point people elsewhere:

Today, another dramatic reading goes live on our sister podcast feed (Fanfics & Chill), which can be found on every app and website this podcast is. Part 2 will go up next week. I know The Shipping Forecast has more listeners than Fanfics and Chill, but we have a lot of fun doing the dramatic readings so I hope you have a listen.

Christmas special for The Shipping Forecast is also on its way, and should be live roughly around Christmas day

We'll be playing some games over the next few days too, all of which will be on our YouTube channel! Hope to see you there too

But most importantly, thank you for sticking with us, its been a rocky year but its been great hearing from listeners and even seeing that we have an audience who enjoys these three British Idiots.

We'll be back to recording properly next year...

This week, the Forecasters discuss the ever relevant topic of which robots we would sleep with. We also take a stab at several ethical questions (but this time for real), including:

Can Yes Man from Fallout New Vegas consent? At what point does it stop being a sex toy and start being a robot? And at what point would it be cheating? How has Nick not seen Blade Runner yet?? Will Black and Decker sponsor us for these shameless plugs? (probably not, but call me)

All these and more, on this weeks Shipping Forecast.

This week, The Forecasters wanted something fluffy, so we head back to one of Grace and James' favourite anime; Little Witch Academia.

Join us as we ask hard hitting questions, like: Were there men in this show? Is Nick a Magical Girl? Can we find a copy of Night fall?

For our Halloween special, join us as we delve into the Magnus Archives, the first Podcast that we have covered on our Podcast! TMA has a special place in the hearts of James and Grace as its one of the first fandoms they've made fan content for themselves, and its been fun to show Nick what he's been missing out on!

Join us as we ask hard hitting questions, like Who is our Number One Fan? Why is Blahaj? Is The Demon Headmaster scary to Zoomers Where is the Clussy?

Also, if you've not already come join us on our YouTube channel, where we did a traditional style Let's Play of Monster Prom, and will likely do more in future!

This week, James gets to talk about his time with Resident Evil 4, which may not be super relevant right now but its new to him and dammit thats enough! Also its a thinly veiled excuse to talk about the big lady again, and who doesn't enjoy that?

Join us as we ask (and sometimes even answer) hard hitting questions, like:

Can you fuck a breakfast? Is McDonalds a good First Date? Is ABO the most influential writing trend of this century Where did Old Man Yaoi Come From?

By the way, our next proper episode will be our Halloween episode and it'll go out on Halloween. But don't worry we have something planned on our normal release schedule, which'll be over on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@theshippingforecast539

This week, the forecasters bite off more than they can chew as they try to talk about as many late 90's early 00s traditionally animated films as they can remember. Join us as James simps unabashedly, Nick talks about his secret father figure, and Grace does her best to keep us on track!
