The listeners have voted (on Instagram) and the next horror franchise to be covered is "Child's Play"! First episode is up and we've got a few great guests joining us to talk about everyone's favorite killer doll, all the way through May.

Even if it's a bit, I find it weirdly comforting that @jamellebouie.net ,while covering very serious issues and doing important work, was still wistful about waiting to be called up to talk about "Sonic 3" on @flophousepodcast.com

"Come on you, muthas!" If you can, donate/share to help out the great Reggie Bannister from "Phantasm". www.gofundme.com/f/support-re...

Finished up Silent Hill 2 last night. Honestly one of the most engaging, scary, emotionally draining horror... thing.. I've ever watched/ played.

Comfort, somehow.

This is one of the best things I've read in a long time. www.hcn.org/issues/57-11...

@jcworsley.bsky.social does it again. A Christmas tradition I always look forward to. www.youtube.com/watch?v=26H_...

I'm a sucker for these kinds of memorial edits. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF8_...

I watched M*A*S*H* so so much as a kid. It was just on, when you had about 5 channels. My dad really liked it and I came to really like it too. I distinctly remember watching this and feeling so awful for the first time watching TV, in a good way. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wwie...

Just listening to Bolt Thrower and picking out Paladin spells for tomorrow's D&D session. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9sn...

This is one of the reasons why, provided I have a few extra bucks each year, I'll always be a member of the Hollywood Theatre. Only 9 theaters in the world will get these prints.

"The Pit" makes me realize that my line of work is pretty meaningless considering what they do in the first few hours of their day.

Commence Turkey Day MST3K celebrations for the next 5 days. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZJ7...

My sister told me my 11 year old nephew wants "Aliens" comics for Christmas and I think I can handle this.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

Vimeo's Short of the Week picked up our short horror film, "Dark Mommy" (dir. Courtney Eck) for our online premier! We played at 50some festivals over the last year or so but you can watch in full below and read the review! www.shortoftheweek.com/2025/10/30/d...

"I asked ChatGPT" "I asked Grok" ok well I asked Gandalf and he said he has not passed through fire and death to bandy crooked words with a witless worm

For Tolkien fans, a timely passage for No Kings Eve, from WH Auden’s review of Lord of the Rings.

We had the director of the new "Deathstalker" remake on our show! We mainly talk about "Warlock 2" but dive into all sorts of things primarily surrounding practical effects, monsters, rubber suits, etc. Nice guy, that Steve Kostanski!

The stinger to my favorite MST3K- "Riding with Death." I want to be this excited all the time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8zm...

There's a clip in the trailer for "Magnolia" that never made the final film where William H Macy as Quiz Kid Donny Smith says, "I used to be smart, now I'm just stupid." I think about that and self apply about once a week.

I work in marketing. And I (kinda sorta) work in horror. This is the kind of work I'd like to be involved with.

"Verrrry Erratic" Whenever I hear someone use the word, "erratic" from "Riding with Death."

"It is a gift. A gift to the foes of Mordor."

"Get hot!"

98 degrees in Portland today which means double feature time- "Weapons" followed by "Naked Gun". Both, top tier.

I'm bad at promoting things and I guess social media in general, but hey- my friend Erick Mertz and I edited a book of horror stories by 13 authors! All set in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. You can pre-order the digital copy below- physical release in the works! www.amazon.com/Back-Into-Gr...

Some friends and I were talking recently about actually being able to name your top 5 pieces of music. I did it pretty easily.

Dang, Ozzy and David Lynch in one year. Teen Weirdos in the 80s/90s having a rough year.

I was a producer and 1st AD on a shoot at a hotel in Portland. We were running out of time and I was running around trying to lock everything down in a ballroom. I looked over and there was Richard Kind, just kept poking his head in- I had to shoo him out and away so we could roll.

I could have used a little more, but they got the charm right. I'm a sucker for Clark and Pa Kent's relationship and also wanted a little more, but it still worked for me. I'm glad it got sci fi wacky at times, but mainly, was so glad to see a heart in Superman again.

My girl and I.

This is a really fun stand up special from @joshgondelman.bsky.social and you should watch it! I liked it a lot. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAvN...

I'm not sure how to shovel our way out of the shit other than to look out for each other as best we can.

Allow yourself to be soothed by Blixa singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" blixabargeld.bandcamp.com/track/somewh...

Just got tickets to travel to Vegas to see the Cavalera brothers do the entirety of "Chaos AD" with Fear Factory opening with two of my high school buddies and their dad. This is height of Early 90s Me- just before the Skinny Puppy took hold....

A very early scene in the Me Origin Story would be my dad making me Dr. Demento tapes. And listening live in the family van. sopghreporter.com/2025/06/01/d...

As a small business owner, the amount of solicitation emails I get from people hawking their dumb AI products "to streamline my workflow" has risen to such an insufferable level.

I've watched this every day for the last five days and get teary eyed every time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=whEp...

Open AI’s valuation is at $400 billion. They used about 190,000 books to train their plagiarism bot. Randomly saying 25% of their value comes from that stolen dataset, I think they owe the authors about $526,000 per stolen book.

The producers of "The Rehearsal" must have the hardest job in TV and I want to buy them all a beer. And talk to them.

I guess if I use this as an answer without giving proper credit, I'm as bad as the Monster, however, it is tempting.

Watched this with Ray Wise over the last two nights. If you get a chance, just listen to this guy tell stories. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS6d...

Saw this on 35mm today and it's probably in my top 10 theater experiences. Knocked me over. The @hollywoodtheatr.bsky.social had to wrestle The Mouse to make this happen. Support those local theaters whenever you can.

A friend tonight just said, "as far as on the level of Joe Don Banker completionism..." and I do have to agree.

Now the long wait... for more REACHER. That fight was worth the build up.
