  • Cowardly Custard

    I love this show so much. I have always been interested in horror but always been too scared to watch it because I am a coward. I love that I can get the horror story without being scared of it. Plus the boys are awesome, they have such a great understanding of film in general and listening to them break down not just the beats of a film but what makes the horror scary is amazing. I love hearing the talk of film that they do because I love film just as much. They are spectacular hosts and I love... more

  • Best Horror Movie Show in English IMO

    I’m a Brave Boi, but I love listening to them to revisit some movies, learn about new ones I hadn’t heard of, or even learning that an upcoming movie wasn’t as bad as what the trailer looked like to me.

    Highly recommend the other Sanspants shows as well
