Love this pod.
Christian and Neal are awesome. Love 80’s horror, this is it ❤️

The hosts are naturals and have great chemistry. The best compliment I can give is I don’t really care about 1980 horror movies, but they converted me.
Very informative & fun! Makes me want to revisit old horror films. Love this duo!
The hosts have a fun back and forth and unique takes on horror films. If you love scary movies from the 80s, you’ll dig this pod!
