This episode of the ECV Podcast we hit play the news of the last month. Chatting about teens learning the difficulties of opening cd’s (at least they don’t have to deal with the old BJ’s long plastic security holders), thereally cool new Evil Dead VHS (yeah that’s right, VHS) and much much more. Listen here or watch over on YouTube.

We’re going to start doing more physical media open boxings and discussions as we get them. Check out the one that Zach did over on his TikTok. Have any recommendations of what we should cover?
