Ooooooh I was excited to talk to these fools. I convinced Scott Wampler head honcho at The Kingcast and Phil Nobile head honcho at Fangoria to join me to discuss FEAR. We usually talk about horror, sci, and all facets of the spooky and scary but in this episode, we discuss real-life fear, mortality, sobriety, marriage, and general fears realized and otherwise in life. And we try to comprehend the weirdly magnificent but strange Netflix film “Leave The World Behind”. I love talking to these two. Plus 3 recs to go!

3 Recs To Go

• This talk by Ruth Sokup, so good. She hosts the podcast Do It Scared. She is a SUR-VIV-OR. Here’s her Ted Talk where she discusses her one simple trick to do it scared and overcome your fears.

• If its available in your area, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE sign up for Kanopy with your library card info. What a great resource for all and it is FREE. It has movies, TV shows, a lot of international options, educational materials and resources. CHECK! IT! OUT!

• My favorite thing to do is fall asleep to brown noise. It’s good for your brain. It softens the noise and lets you fall asleep faster and really stay in it. I loooove this playlist. Let me know if it works for you.
