  • Whatcha watchin’? Whatcha readin’? Whatcha listenin’ to?

    If you aren’t listening to this podcast you are missing out. Nathan’s contagious crack ups and Reed’s comical banter is just one of the many reasons to tune in to this spoooky podcast. I’m not usually a podcast person, but this best friend duo has me curious for the next episode each time I listen. From weighty films such as WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN to more whimsical titles like Tim Burton’s NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS, Nathan and Reed unpack the relevance of the relationship between the horro... more

  • Thoughtful and fun!

    The Fear of God is everything I hope for in a podcast: thoughtful, entertaining, and deeply engaging. Reed and Nathan have a rare ability to take films, books, and cultural touchstones and unpack them with both intellectual rigor and heartfelt sincerity. They don’t just review movies, they explore the stories we tell, the fears we carry, and the ways art shapes our imagination and faith.

  • Horror with a theological Spin

    Nathan and Reed are not only entertaining, they are also thoughtful and engaging in their approach to both theology, the Bible, and horror movies. They never try to offer an answer but rather approach both horror and the Bible with the intellectual curiosity that both deserve. I highly recommend this podcast.

  • That Good Good

    I gotta say…these guys are the real deal. Thoughtful and engaged, passionate about their subject matter and about articulating what it is they love about it. And for what it’s worth…what an interesting niche they’ve made for themselves: the intersection of Horror and the Divine. The show is fun and these guys are really smart for a couple of bozos!

    Yep yep yep!
