I Spit on Your Podcast

Great podcast to sink your teeth into if you are hungry for thoughtful feminist analysis on your horror favorites! I love how they explore my favorite shows and movies and they make me want to catch up on all the flicks I haven’t seen yet. They even made me change my perspective on some of my least favorite horror movies. I can’t get enough!

I was hopeful for this podcast. As a fellow female lover of horror, I thought this would be refreshing. I listened to 2 episodes and was done. These ladies mispronounced the simplest words. It became really annoying. Note to mention mispronouncing Laurie Strode. Really? You don’t know the name of the lead character in Halloween? Really disappointing

Jess and Kelly are whip-smart, funny, and deeply passionate about what horror means to them, and to their audience. It’s like if Ginger and Brigitte Fitzgerald had a podcast about genre. (Which is which tho? Hmm.)

Similar to Faculty of Horror-both hosts bring an informative, academic approach to horror analysis without skipping out on the fun. I loved their episode covering Alien in particular, as they raised issues of transgender representation that I'd certainly never considered in my dozen or so veiwings of the movie. These ideas never seem forced or out of place. Solid listen all around.
