- Ep. 51 - Candyman: 1992 & 2021
This week we speak into the mirror with two Candyman films (1992 & 2021) and discuss the violence of well-intentioned whiteness, the ownership of trauma, how urban legends represent the fears of the groups that share them, and why we don't stan true crime entertainment.
