  • Always a pleasure to listen to!

    Been a long time listener now, and I always have a great time with this. The main hosts are passionate, and the rotating guests do a great job of providing insight. Covers a broad range of topics too, including some interesting obscure stuff I would never have found on my own. A real pleasure!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 330: Interview - Dos Goats [Suffer, 2025]
Q: Was the film concept changed during production?
Yes, we initially had a more horror-adjacent theme but shifted towards adventure due to our lead actor's vibe and the bright Idaho landscapes.
Episode 330: Interview - Dos Goats [Suffer, 2025]
Q: Did you go into this film with a fully formed idea?
Initially, we had the idea of combining a suffragette speech with visuals from a fantasy warrior fight.
Episode 330: Interview - Dos Goats [Suffer, 2025]
Q: What got you two into movie production?
Both of us do it as our day jobs, and on our second date, we started talking about movie ideas.
Episode 327: Interview - Dani Finn
Q: What sparked the going down the writer's path?
Dani shared that they have always written and transitioned to self-publishing after realizing it aligned more with their goals.
Episode 317: Interview - Jack Finn
Q: Where did you come up with that? Like how much of that is folklore inspired?
There's definitely a combination of the two. I did look at the folklore, and when you peel back, one of the resources I used was Sabine Barron Gould's The Book of Werewolves, which was written in 1865.
