• The Stuff (1985)

  This is my 55th episode and my theme of the month is A Very Corporate Christmas. With movies about the horrors of consumerism and how profit over people has led to deaths through poisoning and addiction. American corporations were feeding people radioactive water, cocaine, morphine, industrial bleach, arsenic, and embalming fluid. All while calling it “healthy”. The FDA exists because consumerism killed people and companies knew it.

• Ravenous (1999)

  This is my 54th episode and my theme of the month is Remember November. I am covering horror movies with representations of indigenous people. The film I'm covering today has an imperfect representation of the Wendigo legend from Algonquian cultures (notably Cree and Anishinaabe). The film takes place in 1847 during the Mexican American War and cannibalism is used as a metaphor for colonialism.

• Monsters: Richard Speck - Interview with Tobias Jelinek

  Today’s episode is a special one. I interview Tobias Jelinek who played Richard Speck in the new Nextflix series Monsters: The Ed Gein Story. I asked the tough questions about the depictions of gender and Tobias didn’t flinch. He showed up with honesty, clarity, and a level of thoughtfulness that add depth, context, and perspective that I think my listeners will appreciate. Resources:Was Ed Gein Transgender?

• Blood Quantum (2019)

  In Episode 52, I dive deep into Jeff Barnaby’s brutal, brilliant, and fiercely Indigenous zombie film Blood Quantum. Set on the Red Crow Reservation during a global outbreak, the dead are rising, and the Indigenous people are the only ones immune. With my guest, I break down the film’s themes of sovereignty, identity, cultural resilience, and the horror of history itself.
