Frightday
Audio WoolFrom their compound tucked deep in the mountains of Montana, each week the Frightday crew investigates chilling incidents of high strangeness, human wickedness, peculiar cryptids, & conspiracies...from a rational perspective. The subject is then paired with a review of a new release genre film. If it bleeds, hacks, stabs, summons, sacrifices, abducts, or bites...it is Frightday.

United States7 months ago - Kelly is good, but Sam ruins the show
The content is very interesting to listen to, and Kelly does her best to keep the episode’s story moving despite the continuous childish interruptions from Sam. If there were a way for AI to just filter Sam out completely it would be a 4+ star show, but sadly there isn’t. At some point you just have to say enough is enough and stop listening. If Sam were even remotely interesting or intelligent it might be tolerable, but no such luck. Sorry.
Apple Podcasts1MontgomerycnjUnited States8 months ago - What even is this?
I listened to the Nathaniel Bar-Jonah series (from 2021) and while I appreciate the thoroughness of the research, I don’t understand Kelly’s role here. She just interjects with completely useless often one word comments and is weirdly aggressive. I’d like to hear this without her additions.
Apparently other episodes are horror movie reviews? No idea what this show is even supposed to be, but one star for the research and another one because according to other reviews she trash talked Trump, so ... more
Apple Podcasts2UserUserUserUser4United States2 years ago - Not having an episode of this to listen to at work makes me furious.
I initially found this podcast while searching iTunes for content about Zak Bagans. I did this because he fascinates and infuriates me in equal measure. I realise that searching for podcasts to try and reaffirm my opinion on a celebrity that I have never met and never will meet is odd, but that’s besides the point.
The ZakBag episodes were enough to get me hooked however and Frightday is now easily my number one go to podcast.
The kind of podcast that makes you consider attempting the mind num... more
