Not only is October “Spooky Season”, but it’s also a very special month for another reason. We have five Fridays this month, and we think the best way to make this a special gift to our many listeners is to expand your horizons with a guest episode. The hosts may be different, but the presentation and subject matter is fascinating. The Opera Queers podcast dissects the intersection of Queer culture and Opera, so what more is there to say?

Our Halloween Haunt continues this month with tales that are not your conventional scary stories. Yet, still very much unnerving. Black Mirror on its surface, is a television anthology powerhouse with mind-bending shows, but what this proverbial mirror reflects is an ugly and prolonged look at us and the world around us. How we think and how we act when faced with the coming wave of technological advancement in the future. So gaze into the void with us and let’s have a laugh or two along the way, Entertain This…

Why do we like to be scared? It’s not a fun emotion to experience, and yet Horror Movies are still ever popular.

They’re influential, and whether you enjoy being horrified or not, these movies and the stories they tell are ubiquitous. So, go ahead and Entertain This… if you dare!
