    EP 11: A Super Spooky Halloween Special

    Boo! On this Halloween-themed episode Max and Connor discuss their pure and unironic love of Hubie Halloween, Connor's experience playing Phasmophobia, and their favorite movies to watch on Halloween. They also discuss the pitfalls of the theatrical experience and their favorite childhood Halloween costumes. (Content warning: From 61:01-70:00 Max and Connor discuss real animal death on film. It's not a graphic discussion per se but we feel it's important to give everyone a heads up in regards to that particular conservation.)

    EP 2: The True Two

    Max and Connor return to unfringe some topics from Episode One. They discuss ghosts, Stephen King, and whether robots should have skin or not.

    EP 1: Max von Sydow Is an Animorph

    Beware: this premiere episode contains spoilers that are potentially non-spoilers for the film Memento and the television series Game of Thrones. Max and Connor DEFINITELY spoil the 1978 Invasion of the Body Snatchers and A Nightmare on Elm Street. They discuss and/or mention Noroi: The Curse, She Dies Tomorrow (available on VOD Friday August 5th [not sponsored]), Night of the Living Dead, and Shirley, but they don't come anywhere close to spoiling those movies. Max and Connor also discuss mortality, Catholicism, unlearning, America, motel life, audience behavior and expectations at the drive-in, the Windows 98 Microsoft Entertainment Pack: The Puzzle Collection, ghosts, determinism, CRT TVs, and much more. I forget a lot of it. I'd have to go back and listen to the episode again.
