Episode 84 - An Interview with Jamie Flanagan and Rebecca Klingel Jul 15, 2022

Show notes

This episode is an absolute treat-- we have guests Jamie Flanagan and Rebecca Klingel, who wrote on the Netflix series The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manner, and Midnight Mass and upcoming Mike Flanagan Netflix series The Midnight Club and The Fall of the House of Usher. Additionally, Rebecca wrote the terrifying creepypasta Borrasca. They talk the horror genre, working in writer rooms, and are just delightful and insightful the entire episode! Apologies on the audio-- it gets a little off partway through the episode but it still very listen-able. Nathaniel may eventually get a version that's even more cleaned up.

Episode 80 - Batman as Horror Mar 21, 2022

Show notes

Max and Nathaniel saw The Batman and had thoughts ab0ut all of the interesting ways the film plays with horror tropes. And, Nathaniel being Nathaniel, he also wanted to share even more of his (honestly absurd) wealth of Batman knowledge to recommend other horror and horror-adjacent Batman stories. And then we talked about a bunch of c0mic book horror characters... Okay, this is a definitely one of our longest episodes. We regret nothing.
