The Voice Of Tinker Jones recap of Little House On The Prairie S1E12
Our guest this week is from the Nightmare Echoes podcast- we welcome Eleazar we talk about what Little House means to each of us: our favorite characters and early episodes, and a surprising link to The Village by M. Night Shyamalan. We also take on a big question: should you get a plaque for giving an expensive gift to a church? And what is Mrs. Oleson really after?
Next, we turn to the episode itself. We cover production trivia, the history behind the story, sign language and communication, and how Tinker Jones in the books differs from the show. We follow the church bell fight as it splits the town's adults and drags in the children, until the kids build a bell of their own and give Tinker a voice.
Eleazar is the host of the podcast Nightmare Echoes, where you can embrace your horror obsession. On Nightmare Echoes, Eleazar and his cohosts cover not just horror, but horror comedies and parodies, as well as mysteries such as M. Night Shyamalan's The Village, of which Steve Barnes was a guest!

Little House On The Prairie Recap of Town Party Country Party S1E9
This episode on Running Down The Hill, we have double trouble- Nathan and Reed from the Fear Of God Podcast join to talk about Town Party Country Party, a fan favorite and a fantastic Nellie Oleson episode to boot. As we discuss the beats of the episode, Nathan and Reed discuss being fathers, especially to daughters; how fathers can react either overwhelming positive or negative, depending on the situation and timing; and of course, PARTIES! and whether or not we prefer Town Parties or Country Parties. I also force them to say something nice about Nellie.
