To kick off our first episode of Season 2, we’re sinking our teeth into Warm Bodies, a unique love story that’s equal parts romance, humor, and brain-eating zombie action. We’ll discuss Isaac Marion’s heartwarming (and a little gruesome) book and how it was adapted into the charming 2013 movie starring Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer.

Get ready to laugh, swoon, and shamble your way into the new season!

Hosted by Lindsey with co-hosts Crystal and Keri.
