The return of Rob G!
Came here after reading the book. Great podcast, it feels like listening to friends chatting.
I loved this website and all the interviews were amazing. So when I heard there was a new book & podcast I was super stoked and listened immediately. First episode was awesome! If you’re a horror nerd you NEED TO LISTEN!
Excellent first episode. From Kiler POV to Shock Waves I’ve always been a fan of Rob Galluzzo. He’s always been a positive light in the world of horror and has great knowledge of the genre . This is the first time I’ve had the pleasure of hearing Mike, Adam and Jason. I immediately knew they would be someone I would look forward to listening to. The whole show is very relatable to me, they feel like horror fans like me . I can’t wait to listen to future episodes, everybody should check it out.
If you're an old school horror nerd like myself, then listening to these four feels like hanging out with old friends. Just a fantastic discussion roaming all over the genre. Hope this continues!
