Apple Podcasts5Dizzle37United States10 months ago - Great podcast
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.
