#33 - BEST DISASTER SCENE

#27 - BEST MUPPETS SCENE
It's the final episode of season 2 and it's Muppetmania on the pod. Joined for an impromptu chat with Muppet superfan Liam Geraghty (an award-winning audio producer of radio and podcasts like Meet Your Maker and Petrified), Kevin and Will take a deep dive into the beloved creations of Jim Henson and revel in the utter joy of Kermit, Miss Piggy, Gonzo, Fozzy and the rest.
♫ It's time to play the podcast, produced by two gobshites, it's time to hear these muppets from The Best Bits show tonight. ♫
#26 - BEST WHODUNIT SCENE
When it comes to Whodunits, many names come to mind, Raymond Chandler, Agatha Christie, Otto Preminger, but when it comes to who brought it? Will and Kevin's extra special guest co-host did. A writer of five books, four movies, and the host of one long-running podcast. It’s C. Robert Cargill.
#25 - BEST JUMP SCARE
Boo! Happy Halloween!
For this spooky and kooky episode on Jump Scares, The Corpse of Kevin and The Ghost of Will are joined by the Toronto Slayer Kate Ghoulin, a.k.a. film director Kate Dolan. Fresh off her Halloween horror film "You Are Not My Mother" premiering in Midnight Madness at the Toronto Internation Film Festival, Kate helps deliver a cracking episode on the moments from movies that give us goosebumps, make us scream, and have us on the edge of our seats.
#24 - BEST ONE NIGHT IN THE CITY SCENE
Will and Kevin are joined by film director Adam Randall whose fourth film "Night Teeth" is released worldwide today on Netflix starring Debby Ryan, Jorge Lendeborg Jr., Lucy Fry, Alfie Allen, and Megan Fox. Coincidentally, "Night Teeth" is chock full of scenes that take place over one night in the city. Funny how that happens.
#23 - BEST UNSCRIPTED, ‘JUMP THE SHARK’ & CAMEO SCENE
In an impromptu last-minute recording, throwing caution to the wind, Kevin ropes in a surprise special guest to help him and Will with not one, not two, but three bite-size scene themes! Best Unscripted Scene, Best "Jump the Shark" Scene, and Best Cameo Scene. In a freewheeling episode, Irish screenwriter Pierce Ryan (Standby, Black '47) drops in and drops knowledge.
#22 - BEST ANIMATED SCENE
Will's director of Wolfwalkers and Song of the Sea, the three-time Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Tomm Moore, co-founder of world-renowned and award-winning Irish animation studio Cartoon Saloon, joins him and Kevin for this episode to discuss great moments from classic hand-drawn animation films.
#21 - BEST KID SCENE
Never send a boy to do a man's job! So for this episode, Will and Kevin are joined by another extra special guest. This week it's writer/director Ciarán Foy (Eli, Sinister 2, Citadel, The Haunting of Bly Manor) who has just so happened to have directed child actors in every one of his produced projects. From child stars to movie brats, choosing a favourite scene with a Kid Protagonist gave us a first in the show's history. But what is it? And who did they pick? Could it be Mac and Me?!
