    PERVERTED PUPPET PLAYTIME

    KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE | MEET THE FEEBLES | GHOULIES 2
    With Guest Programmer MATTHEW YOVINO
    Saturday mornings sure aren’t what they used to be! Long gone are the days of waking up early to shove our faces full of Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs, eyes glued to the glowing screen in front of us, staring into a flickering void of programming featuring adults with their hands shoved up the asses of neon-furred puppets machine gunning each other into felt souffle. Those were the days! So, Brandon and Chris have decided to bring it back to the glory years, when puppets were perverts and klowns were killer! Guest Programmer Matthew Yovino stops by to spoon feed us a second bowl of Saturday morning sleaze. We’re talkin’ cotton candy cocoons, fluid-flinging furries and goo-gushing Ghoulies! Put the kids down for an afternoon nap, because it’s PERVERTED PUPPET PLAYTIME!

If you have fond memories of going to the Drive-In as a kid (or a “grown up”) I can’t recommend this podcast enough.
I absolutely love it.
I find myself writing notes while listening- so I can check out all the movies and movie trivia they talk about.
Good Stuff.
