| 6/23/26 | Episode 177: BONUS- A Scream Queen Celebration (with Jason Paul Collum) | Filmmaker and author Jason Paul Collum returns to the show for a special tribute to all things scream queen! We're discussing Jason's 2011 documentary SCREAMING IN HIGH HEELS, which looks at the late-80's B-movie horror phenomenon from the viewpoint of three of it's stalwarts: Brinke Stevens, Michelle Bauer, and Linnea Quigley!

| 6/19/26 | Episode 176: Killjoy Goes to Hell (with Benjamin Frankenberg and Ryan Twyford-Rigley) | Killjoy is back and this time, he's going to hell... or is trying to, anyway. But first he needs to plead his case before a demonic jury to determine if he's evil enough. That's the conceit for the surprisingly clever KILLJOY GOES TO HELL, the fourth in Full Moon's flagship killer clown franchise. We're joined this week by the director and star of the upcoming metal horror film GOATSWORD, Ryan Twyford-Rigley and Benjamin Frankenberg, who cram into the clown car with us to unpack this weird and ambitious treat.

| 6/12/26 | Episode 175: Totem (with queerdem0n) | Horror streamer and content creator queerdem0n is back this week as we cover the last of David DeCoteau's insane 2-year, 11-movie run, TOTEM! Six strangers arrive in a secluded mansion for reasons they can't explain and face off against some evil stone imps... or something.

Please be sure to check out the amazing Movie Dumpster podcast and their YouTube channel at @MovieDumpster, and thanks again to Joe and Sean for having us on!

| 2/20/26 | Episode 155: Final Stab (with Richard Newby) | David DeCoteau takes on SCREAM with the rare Full Moon slasher film FINAL STAB!

We're joined once again by the great Richard Newby, who helps us try to unravel and make sense of the film's many twists.

We're joined this week by New York horror icon Avery Coffey, who helps us break down the baffling production decisions and impossibly terrible sound editing of this odd little tween flick.
