It's time to get annihilated! Greg D. of the Nightmare Junkhead, Nerds of Nostalgia & the Screenland podcast (and weekly host of the Friday Night Frigts horror/genre programming at the Screenland Armour theater) joins us to dive into Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg's film The World's End.

Following Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, The World's End is the third film in what has become to be called "The Cornetto Trilogy." Like the films that come before it, it deals with themes of growing up, accepting personal responsibility, and finding one's place in relationships with others.

We talk:

• History of the Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost crew
• Addiction and sobriety
• The film's incredible script
• Conformity vs. Individuality
• Special effects and fight choreography
• Growing up and evolving with the movies we love
• and MORE!
