Ted Lavine

Like the show. But how do you overlook that Ted Lavine (The Hills Have Eyes) is Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs and only comment that he’s in Monk? That’s just heresy.

Lady Edith's Knickers ,

Disagree, but love the discussion

Just listened to The Witch episode and it was great, even though I disagree with the guys’ take on the ending. She was escaping the bad choices of her father and brother! Notice it’s the men/boys having grisly deaths? She had to get out of that crappy living situation and when she’s the last one standing she realizes her power. You need a woman on this show for a different viewpoint, but I love how deep you go and how serious you take on your subject!

The Infamous Niko ,

Sad Joke of a podcast

They ironically call themselves the Final Girls when they’re 2 cis dudes that enjoy listening to themselves ramble. I could barely make it through 2 episodes. During one of which they gave a shout out to their favorite podcast (Dead Meat), & neglected to mention the female host by name AT ALL. Her name is Chelsea, she’s the blood, guts & brains of Dead Meat & they just called her The Girlfriend. 🤮🤮🤮P.s. Guys- her podcast is much better than yours!
