What’s better than a good serial killer movie or book or fanfic? Almost nothing. Unfortunately, REALLY GOOD serial killer content is hard to find, especially if you’re looking for something that doesn’t romanticize the killer. Emily gets into her love of true and fictional crime and offers some great places to start if you want to creep yourselves out with real-life monsters.

What's so great about fall? Literally everything! Emily goes full basic bitch in this episode and get out a whole bunch of squealing about apples, pumpkins, sweaters, crunchy leaves, NaNo prep and, oh yeah, shares a few blessed combinations of her favorite things: scary shit and fanfic.

One for the books, shippers. Chelsea's back to bang out the last of Cringe Binge 2018, listen to all the stupid things Emily did this week, teach her how to plug in a USB cable, and insert some much needed sanity and levity to this month of cringey goodness.

Fair warning: we had to plow through an awful lot of smut this week so this episode is full of NSFW language and topics so maybe don't listen to it with your grandma. Unless she's cool. Then go for it.

How tall are dwarves supposed to be? Are they comparable to hobbits? And how do humans figure into this equation? A lot of questions get asked, very few get answered or, honestly, even merit a response. Otherwise known as the week that Emily read something from a fandom she did not understand and refused to ask for help. Also, there's some talk about the now infamous Batman peen. Because of course there is.

You know how everything last week was sunshine and roses and excitement over broadening horizons? This week is more like digging around an actual dumpster trying to find your last contact lens so you can focus on the finer details of the garbage around you. Em went searching for some cringey fics this week, only to be disappointed (and vocal!) about some parts of fanfic that just don't need to happen anymore. No links this time, ships. Emily suffered enough for all of you.

Is there really such thing as The Greatest 90s Sports Movie of All Time? Answer: yes. And it's The Mighty Ducks trilogy. Need proof? Emily has all the evidence you need to understand why these films and fandom are so great they're worth punching out a naysayer at a hockey game.
