15. What is Mormonism?
We're bringing things back to our old ways this episode as Teddy asks David all the probing questions about growing up in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, aka Mormonism. Do we get off topic talking about reality TV? Yes. Do we go on a tangent about the Boy Scouts of America? Yes. Is David spilling all the Mormon tea? Definitely. (Although Mormons can't drink tea, so......) Strap in ya'll it's gonna get weird.

14. What are the twitch streamers doing? with Giselle
In this episode we get in deep about video games. This is a subject that Teddy and David are not entirely equipped to discuss, so we brought along Giselle, a resident twitch streamer and video game aficionado. Enjoy this episode and then go play some games ya'll!

13. How do you pivot like a pro in the pandemic? with Joelle Robertson
hey hey hey!! We've got Joelle Robertson here to explain to us how she has learned to pivot around the obstacles this year and how you can do it too! Do we get off topic? Yes. Are we worried about it? No. Was this episode fun as hell to record? Yes! Enjoy this loud and wacky episode with none other than the unparalleled Joelle Robertson.

12. What is music production? with Andrew Heringer
In this episode, we sit down with the ever so talented, ever so humble, and ever so chill music producer/songwriter Andrew Heringer. You may have heard his music with the band Milo Greene, The Guest and the Host, his ambient sound project Soundbath, or heard his tracks on popular shows like Grey's Anatomy, Jane the Virgin, and iZombie, just to name a few. Andrew also mixed and mastered Ranked: a concept album! We discuss how the music industry operates, challenges and successes of songwriting and artistic collaboration during the pandemic, and we may have gotten a bit sidetracked trying to convince Teddy to record a song about the infamous Amazon sensation: the poop knife!

11. What's it like to act on a TV Sitcom? with Shelby Wulfert
Hey everybody! We're back with a very special guest! Shelby Wulfert is a LA-based actor and singer. You may know her from Liv and Maddie on the Disney Channel, or from the Ranked Concept Album. We get super in the weeds about awkward moments on set, craft services, favorite TV shows, and....... kidney stones?

10. What's the deal with TV? with the TV Doctor: Dr. Foss
David and Teddy welcome the fabulous Dr. Foss as the very first guest on Pckt Cndy! We get down and dirty talking about TV with the ever so brilliant Dr. Foss PhD. Which shows need to go? Which shows were taken from us too soon? What the hell does "jump the shark" mean? And why do we keep talking about cults all the time? Answer these questions and more!
Don't forget to follow Dr. Foss on twitter and instagram @teeveephd and listen to her podcast The TV Doctor www.thetvdoc.com

9. Why Can't We Have Nice Things, America?
We made it! It's 2021 ya'll!! But.... why isn't everything magically better now? This episode is one enormous outtake from our NYE episode where we WENT OFF about immigration policies, the way Americans have bought into a culture of selfishness, and of course, the idiocy of our current Covid times. It's madness, so strap in everybody!

8. What on earth was 2020?
Hey everybody! Can you believe that 2020 is nearly over?! Praise the LAAAWWWWD. In this episode Teddy and David reflect on the year, and we feature a lot of David's music!

7. What the HELL is Christmas? (feat. Elf on a Shelf)
WARNING: This episode in particular is not appropriate for small children because we discuss Santa.... if you know what I mean. Although ALL our episodes are inappropriate for children.... but it's a free country. Anywho.... In this episode Teddy and David share fun Christmas memories, not-so-fun Christmas memories, and they even sing and play piano too! We get VERY off-topic about cults, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and moose knuckles. Happy Christmas everybody!

6. Where Do Babies Come From?
This one gets kinda graphic... you have been WARNED! In this episode Teddy tells the story of how she gave birth. In graphic detail with several very specific anecdotes. We get a little off topic and talk about intersectional identities, feminism, dumb people ignoring science, and my childhood bestie's horrifying testicle injury. STRAP IN FOLKS!

5. What is Musical Theatre?
Here is comes babes. We're spilling the tea about the theatre industry. (With love of course, because we know times is hard) We get a little off track talking about scary band geeks, graphic design, unsolicited nudes.... you know, the usual stuff.

4. What is Thanksgiving?
Okay everybody! Gather 'round as David and Teddy ruin Thanksgiving for you. (not the parade though, we love the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade). In this episode we reflect upon childhood Thanksgiving memories, get sidetracked by formaldehyde, share Black Friday horror stories, and talk far too long about Syphilis. Buckle Up Bitches!

3. Who is David?
Welcome back for Episode 3! We're so excited that you've stayed committed this long. In this episode Teddy interviews David so we can all get to know each other a little better. We talk about growing up Mormon, coming out of the closet, horrifying customer experiences at Starbucks, and being married. Don't forget to leave a review. We love you cuz you're delicious!

2. Who is Teddy?
Happy Friday the 13th ya'll! Teddy decided this day was the ideal day to post our Q&A so everybody can meet her! Notable tangents include: Whether Canada is north or south of the United States, the babadook, and David's dog Koji.

1. Who Will Win The Election?
David and Teddy react to a tumultuous 2020 Presidential Election week, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' speeches on Saturday evening, and speculate about what other insanity is in store for the rest of 2020. Notable tangents include: Vagina twitches, annoying and endearing habits of musical theatre performers, Teddy and David's artistic pursuits, and dissecting privilege.

What is Pckt Cndy?
What exactly is Pckt Cndy? Well. It's Pocket Candy with no vowels, cuz we're hip, or lit, or whatever the hell these kids call it nowadays. Candy in your pocket.
