I’m currently watching/reading/listening to?

Celebrity Big Brother started back tonight I always find that an easy watch to ease back in the new year.

I’m currently playing catch up on daily podcast shows from Christmas week. I only really get time to listen to podcast shows on the way too and from work these days.

I'm watching The Grand Tour on amazon prime and listening to the storm.

Isn’t there something so cosy about listening to a storm outside when you’re wrapped up watching tv.

I’m currently watching How to get away with murder season 3 on Netflix. It’s extremely bingewordy.

Season 1-3 are on Netflix and season 4 starts on Sky living on Tuesday. So great timing I can roll right from one season into the other.

Anyone got any good Podcasts recommendations? I'm up to date with one and the last week were all Christmassy as they were getting closer to the break.

I'd love some festive ones or just lighthearted ones, my other podcasts are too argumentative for my liking at the moment.

Just following up on this, I searched Christmas in the Apple Podcast and I came across this years Christmas Special of RTÉ Radio 1 Today with Sean O'Rourke.

Trust me this wouldn't normally be my cup of tea, but as it was a Christmas special I had to have a listen and lads its brilliant. It's full of Christmas songs, poems and they even a Scientist on answering questions about Santa Claus from 1st Class Students. And the Scientist is brilliant lads he has an answer for everything and all logically answers too and not just "fairy dust" answers.

It's well worth a listen and it really helps with the post Christmas blues.

I’m loving Dancing On Ice already. Perfect thing to watch this evening!

Watching it ourselves. Great Sunday night entertainment! Such an easy watch.

This movie was mentioned in a podcast I’m listening to and it reminded me how much I love the movie and this song.



And the song is now stuck in my head. So catchy!

Came across a Christmas Podcast "Tis The Podcast" where they review and talk about Christmas Movies/Christmas TV Specials.

Only listened to one episode so far but it's light, an easy listen and funny in parts. I'd definitely give it a go if you're stuck for a podcast to listen to.

They seem to have episodes quite regularly so it's not just a seasonal podcast.

I also listen to "Can't Wait For Christmas" podcast. This is VERY American so be warned. The host can be VERY OTT and some of his impressions/jokes are very corny.

There's a new episode every 25th. However what is good is he does go into good detail on where some of the Christmas traditions come from, that can be interesting and there are some useful tips from time to time, but a lot of it is very skip-able.

This podcast gets better and better the 3 co-hosts are friends in real life and it shows on this, the chemistry works, it's like listening to 3 friends having a catchup and they all love Christmas!

I also watched Christmas Office Party (2016) last night on Amazon Prime it's actually very funny. Bit crude but lots of good one liners and a decent cast.

Watched all of The Haunting of Hill House recently on Netflix. Great Halloween viewing.

How scary is it? I'm tempted to watch it but I'm a total wuss. I avoid all horror movies. Is it full on terrifying?

No. It’s more creepy than scary.

Just don’t do what I did and watched 3 episodes in a row... in the dark... on my own...

I thought it was awful- I couldn't bring myself to watch beyond past episode 3.
It was like a cheesy American family drama with additional flashbacks of occasional ghouls. :pac:

I thought it was really good the characters got more and more fleshed out and you began to feel for them.

You are braver than me. I saw a snippet of it on Celebrity Googlebox & I had to switch it off. I had nightmares about. I can't do scary - I'm a total wuss!

Either can my wife, hence how I end up watching it alone
