Scaredy Boys is a comedy horror movie podcast for the horror-curious and horror-lovers alike. Each week, self-confessed cowards Damo, Sean, and Tom face down iconic horror films, then unpack them with humour, empathy, and a sharp understanding of story and craft. It’s less about gore and jump scares, and more about vibes, friendship, and how these beautiful and horrible movies actually make us feel. Scaredy Boys is a fun, welcoming entry point into the genre for newcomers and lifelong fans — whether you’re a cowardly custard or a brave babe.

Some news on Don't Feed the Darkness, our Scaredy Boys anthology, and it's a bit of a mixed bag. The October self-publish plan is officially off, but not because things have gone wrong. A generous friend of the show has helped get the manuscript in front of some publishers, who've agreed to read it. So we're pausing the DIY release to see if this goes somewhere exciting.

Is it guaranteed? No. Have we said "it's definitely coming out this year" approximately four years running? Sure. But this feels like a real shot at giving the book, and Barker Island, a proper home, so we're happy to sit in the uncertainty for a bit and we hope you are too.

More updates as we have them. Thanks for sticking with us while this beautiful, cursed book slowly makes its way into the world.

xoxo The Scaredy Boys

We're delighted to announce that we have officially launched The Society of the Broken Spine, our wonderful new writing club. The full episode is now available for all our Club Cushing members over on the patreon, but we thought we'd post a tantalising little teaser for everyone else.

In this inaugural meeting we chat through some of the projects we're currently working on, as well as talk research, writing prompts, starting stories, collaborative writing, and plenty more. It's a lot of fun and left us pretty jazzed about putting words on a page!

So crack your spine, get your fingers ready, and let's talk writing.
