    Nothing else like this on the podcast plains. It stands out like a great white shark splashing about in the shallow end of a community pool. But in good way. LISTEN!!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 277 - Mega Python vs Gatoroid (2011)
Q: What surprised you most about Mega Python vs Gatoroid as a production project?
The most surprising aspect was how little time and money were invested upfront, forcing the crew to improvise with green screens, on-location confusion, and a frantic shooting pace that shaped the final product.
Episode 272 (Attack of the Meth Gator - 2023)
Q: What was your take on the gator's super-meth powers and the idea of it becoming unkillable?
They acknowledge it as a wild, unbelievable premise that's played for humor as much as for horror, highlighting how the film leans into its own ridiculous logic to keep the sequence moving.
Episode 274 - Black Water (2007) and Black Water: Abyss (2020)
Q: Jay, can you explain the plot of Black Water Abyss?
In Abyss, two Japanese tourists enter a cave and are killed by an alligator while Cash, a outdoorsman, leads a group that stumbles upon the cave and becomes trapped with a storm coming, a waterfall montage, and escalating personal tensions including cheating and a pregnancy reveal, culminating in a perilous escape and a gunfight.
Episode 271 (They Just Did Some Science)
Q: What moment would you first watch Deep Blue Sea?
Sarah recalls Deep Blue Sea as her gateway and explains how the film sparked her interest in Jaws and shark cinema, shaping her podcasting path.
Episode 256 (Shark Attack 2 - 2000)
Q: What did you think about the character of Dr. Nick Harris?
I loved his voice and thought that was hilarious, especially during the date montage where he tries to comfort the female lead about her sister's death.
