  • Ep. 11: The Blob That Ate the Police ("The Blob That Ate Everyone" Review)
    May 30 2024

    Are you a tormented child with the creativity of a fully established author who writes stories about blob monsters that eat everyone? You’re not alone–so is Zackie in the 55th book of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps series, “The Blob That Ate Everyone.” This week, we discuss what to do when your weird old typewriter starts manifesting the very things you write about into reality. (Spoiler alert: this is not a good scenario to be in when you write about people in your life being eaten by monsters.) All that and more on your favorite podcast.

  • Ep. 10: The Sponge From Hell ("It Came From Beneath The Sink!") Review
    Apr 15 2024

    WE’RE BACK! In the long-awaited return of Things That Go Bump, we’re diving into arguably the worst book in R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps series to date: the 30th installment, “It Came From Beneath The Sink!” In the untimely 10th episode of the podcast, join Zaebian as he procrastinates actually talking about this book which centers around an evil sponge that terrorizes the lives of snobby rich kids. (It’s really bad. This episode is a DOOZY, y’all.) All that and more on your favorite podcast.

  • Ep. 9: Why Would Anyone Ever Go Swimming? ("Deep Trouble" Review)
    Dec 5 2023

    As the legend Walt Disney himself once said, “Flippin’ your fins, you don’t get too far.” The even more iconic legend, R.L. Stine, really proves that point in the 19th book of his Goosebumps series, “Deep Trouble.” Join Zaebian as he talks about mermaids being kidnapped for capitalistic greed, an adventurous twelve-year-old boy with a heart of gold, and why open water is probably the scariest thing in the world and we should all fear it with our entire beings. All that and more on your favorite podcast.

  • Ep. 8: Adventures in Breaking & Entering ("Phantom of the Auditorium" Review)
    Nov 21 2023

    Trespassing. Vandalism. Trap doors. These are the essentials of performing a cursed play in your middle school. This week, we dive into the 24th book in the Goosebumps series, “Phantom of the Auditorium.” Let’s follow our protagonist, Brooke, as she navigates the pressures of acting as a leading lady, trying to find out who keeps weirdly threatening her, and being absolutely iconic. Together, we will unpack the horrors of framing children for sabotage and being a theatre kid in 6th grade. All that and more on your favorite podcast.

  • Ep. 7: Kids Are So Dumb ("Ghost Beach" Review)
    Nov 14 2023

    If you’re a fan of ghost folklore, small towns in New England, and complicated histories surrounding a family lineage of pilgrims who mysteriously died after sailing to America, you are probably going to be as morbidly disappointed as Zaebian was when reading the 22nd book in the Goosebumps series, “Ghost Beach.” Let’s discuss how insufferable children are and why R.L. Stine is convinced that ghosts eat dogs for some reason. All that and more on your favorite podcast.

  • Ep. 6: R.L. Stine & The American Dream ("Stay Out of the Basement" Review)
    Nov 7 2023

    Anyone else’s dad ever eaten plant fertilizer and bled green ooze after isolating himself in the basement? No? Just Margaret and Casey’s from the second book in the Goosebumps series “Stay Out of the Basement”? Awesome… This week, join Zaebian as he unpacks how a children’s book about a botanist portrays the negative effects of the American Dream and the pursuit of forbidden knowledge. (Buckle up, y’all. This one gets kinda real.) All that and more on your favorite podcast.

    Three children get lost in a magical jungle and find themselves at the center of a life-threatening game of tag with some giant beasts who somehow speak English. What could go wrong?
