A Positive Light

I really enjoy this podcast. A lot of thought goes into each episode and I appreciate the ones that include Mom. I would have loved to sit down with mine so we could discuss movies and books. Looking forward to future listens.

Must listen for all Horror fans!

I stumbled across this horror podcast. It’s well put together and the host is very knowledgeable. She makes you think about the meaning and look at horror movies with a new mindset that you may not have thought of before. I recommend this podcast to any horror fan. Very well done!

Shining light on the shadows of horror

This is such a fun and well put together show. The host is always so insightful and such a professional. Her voice is meant for podcasting. The episodes when she reads short stories are always a highlight for me. If I had to fault this show at all it’s be GIVE ME MORE! This is podcast gold. Check it out!
