These boys may be cowards but they’re honest about it. Great pod and I enjoy listening to them chat about the movies they’ve seen. And how Tom will inevitably betray them
They say at the start of each episode that ‘we watch the movie so that you don’t have to’, but then they never actually make any attempt to explain anything about it beyond a sentence long statement of the premise at the start, like they’re assuming the listener will have already seen it.
When they’re talking about it they’ll just say something like ‘that bit with the dog was crazy’, and then another one will be like ‘yeah the dog bit got me’, but they won’t actually bother to explain what the... more
I’m a certified brave boy, but I can’t get any of the people in my life to enjoy horror with me. Hearing the boys discuss their experiences with the films in such depth and with such great appreciation for the creative choices present in the genre makes me so happy. Also Sean once liked a Letterboxd review of mine. Thanks mate!
love to hear these boys gush about movies. they speak with such passion that it fills me with creative excitement. had to put in the 5 stars to combat the 1 star anti vax review
Any and all SansPants shows will make you dumb and I love it

A comedy-horror show where three self-described cowards dissect iconic horror films with warmth, humor, and a strong focus on storytelling, mood, and craft rather than gore. Episodes mix movie analysis with personal anecdotes, running jokes, and playful banter, creating a welcoming space for fans and newcomers alike. Notable angles include a consistent emphasis on vibe, character dynamics, and how fear is constructed, often framed by the hosts' friendship and shared enthusiasm for cinema. A recurring strength is turning scary viewing into approachable, entertaining conversations, sometimes exploring related media and live-show experiments.
