Our first Final Girl contestant was Mychal -- so it's only fitting our second be Jackson. And -- despite sound issues (sorry) -- this one is indeed a thriller. We imbibe on a sweet 'n' spicy cocktail called The Organ Grindr, and we put Jackson through a trivia gauntlet on Herk Harvey's classic Carnival of Souls. Jackson is a scholar on the movie, but does he have what it takes to win the coveted title of Final Girl against our ruthless Eye Spy killer? Find out, kiddies!   

A lot of listener love in this episode! CPM fan Mychal joins us to discuss a cult favorite of his: Urban Legend (1988). But can he win the title of 'Final Girl' by beating our in-house slasher, The Eye Spy, in a drunken trivia game about this crazy teen horror movie starring Jared Leto and Tara Reid? Speaking of Tara Reid, we drink a cocktail called the Terror Reid, a recipe suggestion from another listener, Diana P. We get increasingly sloshy, of course. It comes with the job.

It's yet another Quickiesode, where we impart unto you the horror movies we feel you should watch this week on your favorite streaming services. But before all that -- as we're wont to do -- we go down a rabbit hole of other nonsense: karaoke at The Pinhook (a dive bar in Durham); orange wine at Bar Brunello (a wine bar in Durham); and Mixtape Massacre (a bomb-ass board game for horror fans). We end on a debate about whether the Final Destination franchise should be considered part of the slasher sub-genre. What do YOU think?

Happy Friday the 13th, everyone! To honor one of our favorite slashers, Brock & Pickens dish about the franchise's 7th installment: The New Blood. This one features the telekinetic final girl, Tina (not to mention a lot of feathered hair and pantsuits). Brock & Pickens play games, drink a Camp Blood-inspired cocktail, and get into a healthy debate about found footage films. Lastly, we announce our very first contestant who, next week, will vie for the title of Final Girl.

It's our latest Quickiesode, campers, so gather around because Brock and Pickens each share their top horror movies to stream this week on your favorite streaming services. But before our big reveals, we start with a word from our latest sponsor -- the perfect gift for those who may be parenting the antichrist. Then, Pickens regales us with an account of his his sexual awakening at Chicago Pride. Don't worry. We edited out the parts that would REALLY make you blush so, although this podcast is NSFW, it's still a LOT more suitable than it COULD'VE been.

Brock & Pickens celebrate July 4th by watching a bunch of rotten teens get slaughtered by a fisherman in a slicker. It's I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER, a movie that cares so little for plausibility that the opening sequence has the sun setting in the east. Brock makes a cocktail as stupid as the movie (but as delicious at Freddie Prinze JR's pouty lips) and Pickens staggers drunkenly through the ridiculous plot. We play games as usual and hear from our latest sponsor -- a great deal for fans of The Evil Dead!

This week, Pickens crafts a whimsically gelatinous cocktail fitting for a discussion of 1988's THE BLOB. Somewhere in between, there's a word from our latest sponsor -- a new series that reimagines Buffy! After an admittedly circuitous stroll through the plot, the guys play a game of MARRY, F**K OR KILL (with the cast's leading men as their pawns, of course). 

It's our third Stream Queens Quickiesode -- ya know: where we share the horror movies we feel you should be watching on your favorite streaming services. But before we get to that, we talk about loads of other stuff -- from fantasies of UPGRADE star, Logan Marshall-Green, to a not-so-sexy trip to a Canadian bathhouse. Pickens bends Quickiesode Rule #1, and Brock scores a rare horror soundtrack on vinyl. Get N2 it!

Brock and Pickens discuss 1988's Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers. Pickens shares his impressions of meeting HCH stars Linnea Quigley and Gunnar Hansen (of another chainsaw fame) at a horror con, and Brock crafts a cocktail as cold as the titular sex workers' hearts. There's also Richard Gere/gerbil talk. It was only a matter of time.

It's Pride Month, so Brock & Pickens have selected two must-see LGBTQ+ horror masterpieces for you to stream -- STAT! Before all that, though, they spill the tea on Dumpster Dive Cinema, Hereditary (no spoilers -- HONEST!) and the trailers for Suspiria and Halloween.
