  • Mostly great/not a fan of suicide jokes

    Very funny show! Unfortunately, there were some jokes about suicide that pushed me away. That is mainly a reflection of my own sensitivity, as the subject of suicide has been very painful for me personally. This is really a rating of the comedy genre: It’s all fun and games until the comedian is joking for you to kill your self.

  • The only podcast I listen to.

    Look, I won’t lie I listen to The Suspense Is Killing Us on Spotify but I’ve come here, not for the fame (okay, maybe a little fame), but to say this is easily my favourite podcast I’ve ever listened to.

    Structurally, it’s a seamless experience. The opening 15 minutes is spent on chit chat, anecdotes and riffing before this group of guys and gal come together to do what they do best: break down 80s, 90s and noughties suspense films (usually the ones that have been forgotten to time). Often fun... more

  • Good pod good folks

    Love the SIKU gang. This is the podcast that most feels like talking about movies with friends. They’ve all seen a ton of movies and have interesting and considered opinions on them, but they’re also funny and personable and each of the hosts has a distinct taste. Their category of focus, 80s/90s/00s suspense and crime thrillers, makes for productive limitations so they have to dig deep and find some truly little-known curios that are fun to hear about, but also allows them to touch on many of t... more
