United States4 years ago - Brilliant idea; excellent execution
I’m a disabled person who spends a lot of time on advocacy & activism. I’m also a huge horror nerd. Until I found this show, I’d never thought much about how the two intersect. But as AnDread and his hosts amply demonstrate, this particular vein is a rich one indeed. And boy, do they mine it.
AnDread’s guests range from professors to disabled folks working in filmmaking, other podcasters to regular joes who just love the genre. It’s educational and thought-provoking without being dry.
