  • 147 - Fan Fiction to Movie Adaptations
    Nov 3 2025

    In this episode of The Continuum Podcast, Adam and Kyle go full nerd-mode as they explore the wild world of fan fiction—where passionate fans rewrite stories, resurrect characters, and occasionally turn sparkly vampires into billionaires with whips.

    From Fifty Shades of Grey (yes, it started as Twilight fanfic—who knew?) to Star Wars legends like Grand Admiral Thrawn, they unpack how fan-made stories sometimes become full-blown franchises. They also question why books don’t have age ratings (because apparently, your nan could be reading smut on the bus and no one would know).

    Kyle reveals his love for Diablo and dreams of writing demon-slaying fiction, while Adam ponders a sequel to The Italian Job—but not the one with Marky Mark. Expect tangents, questionable impressions, and a surprising amount of robot chat.

    It’s chaotic, geeky, and weirdly insightful. Just how we like it.

  • 146 - Virtual Pets to Fan Fiction
    Oct 27 2025

    Adam and Kyle boot up the nostalgia again, starting with the digital pets that defined a generation — from Tamagotchis to their lesser-known dinosaur cousins.


    They reminisce about feeding, cleaning, and accidentally killing their virtual friends, before spiralling into memories of Nokia phones, BIC pen aerials, and the chaotic DIY toys of the ‘90s.


    The conversation then drifts into film nostalgia, including Vince Vaughn’s best roles, action realism, and whether Wedding Crashers was secretly based on a true story. All before rounding off with a surprisingly thoughtful discussion on fan fiction, creativity, and copyright.


    It’s a full journey from retro tech to reimagined stories, with The Continuum’s usual mix of humour, tangents, and pop-culture chaos.

  • 145 - Rats to Virtual Pets
    Oct 20 2025

    Adam and Kyle scuttle from rats to retro tech in another brilliantly offbeat episode of The Continuum.


    Things kick off with a deep (and slightly gross) dive into the mysterious “Rat King” — a tangle of rat tails and urban legend that sparks equal parts horror and laughter. From there, the duo drift into a boozy discussion about gin, allergies, fermentation, and homemade moonshine, before tackling the sugar vs. sweetener debate with their trademark mix of curiosity and confusion.


    Eventually, nostalgia takes over as they reminisce about Tamagotchis, knock-off toys, and growing up without name brands. It’s a chaotic blend of biology, booze, and 90s memories — all served with that classic Continuum chemistry.

  • 144 - Apocalypse Prep to Rats
    Oct 13 2025

    Adam and Kyle lock themselves in the fallout shelter for a doomsday deep dive, bringing their guide on how to survive a nuclear fallout. From survival kits and canned goods to water filters and hunting knives, they break down what it really takes to live through the apocalypse... or at least pretend to.


    Along the way, they debate the best prepper food (beans or spam?), whether rainwater is safe to drink, and how to sharpen knives without losing a finger.


    Things get darker (and funnier) as they discuss gas masks, makeshift shelters, and the eternal enemy of every prepper. Rats. Equal parts survival guide and comedy of errors, this one proves that The Continuum could probably survive the end of the world — just not very well.

  • 143 - Scientology to Apocalypse Prep
    Oct 6 2025

    Adam and Kyle return for another wild journey through conspiracies, cults, and catastrophe. Kicking off with a deep dive... well, a dive into Scientology. They unravel its strange origins, Hollywood ties, and the bizarre lore of Xenu and alien souls. From there, the conversation drifts into film culture. Men in Black, Hollywood’s weirdness, and the surprising history of Pinewood Studios.


    But as always, things take a darker turn: talk of alien sightings and mysterious drone swarms gives way to speculation about World War III, nuclear fallout, and survival in a post-apocalyptic world. By the end, the pair are weighing up their chances as doomsday preppers, canned beans and all.


    Funny, thoughtful, and just a little paranoid — this is The Continuum at its best.

  • 142 - Guns to Scientology
    Sep 29 2025

    In this episode of The Continuum Podcast, Adam and Kyle kick things off with a bang, literally, as they dive into stories from gun ranges, childhood pellet rifles, and the ethics of firearm ownership across the UK, South Africa, and the US. From clay pigeon shooting to BB gun mishaps, it’s a mix of nostalgia, debate, and dark humour.


    But things take a turn when a bizarre sci-fi film leads them down the rabbit hole of Scientology. They explore its origins, its controversial status across different countries, and Kyle’s near-recruitment experience as a teenager. It’s a wild ride from trigger discipline to cult tactics, with plenty of laughs and eyebrow-raising moments along the way.


    If you’ve ever wondered how John Travolta, democracy, and dodgy mall conversations all connect, this is the episode for you.

  • 141 - Scotland to Guns
    Sep 22 2025

    In this episode of The Continuum Podcast, Adam and Kyle take a scenic detour into Scottish island life, reflecting on their virtual exploration of the Isle of Harris, complete with sheep at bus stops and postcard-perfect beaches. They dive into the quirks of the Highland Games, the mystery of kilts and tartans, and whether you need to be Scottish to rock one.


    From there, things get weird (in the best way), as they explore wind rankings, Antarctica conspiracies, and the strange absence of the North Pole on Google Maps. There’s even a nod to Disney’s Strange World and a debate about Flat Earth theories.


    It’s a whirlwind of geography, culture, and comedy!

  • 140 - Wealth Caps to Scotland
    Sep 15 2025

    Adam and Kyle are back with a big question: should there be a cap on personal wealth? From footballers raking in millions to billionaire bunkers and Universal Basic Income, they unpack the ethics, economics, and absurdities of modern money.


    They share personal stories about job seekers allowance, furlough life, and the surprising reality of government benefit schemes. Then, in true Continuum fashion, things take a turn, from serious debate to dreaming about life on the Isle of Harris - will their Scottish friend Billy make a guest appearance next week?


    It’s a wild ride from financial systems to Scottish island fantasies. Thought-provoking, hilarious, and just a little bit chaotic—this episode has it all.
