"We are the weirdos, mister." This month, Ryan performs the first ever full-length audio commentary of the podcast for The Craft (1996).

This episode is available exclusively for Patreon subscribers. Sign up for the Patreon at any tier to listen to the full commentary.

**NOTE: You can listen to this as a normal podcast episode, or as a literal commentary playing the audio while simultaneously watching the movie.**
