You read that title right! We watched two back to back Adam Sandler flicks! For the first time ever, Aaron, Sloan, and your Stepmom Cody recorded a podcast in the SAME ROOM. And what better way to celebrate podcasting in person than with the Sandman? In this very special episode, we watched the spooky Hubie Halloween (2020), and played the drinking game crafted by the dudes at The Worst Idea of All Time podcast for Grown Ups 2 (2013). Get ready and hold onto your butts, this is gonna be a bumpy ride!

Aaron, Sloan, and your Stepmom Cody continue their journey into Friday the 13th. This week we watched part 2! Is it the same exact movie all over again? Who knows?!

The newest saga begins! Aaron, Sloan, and your Stepmom Cody watched Friday the 13th! Just part 1 of 12. But perhaps...by the time they finish...a 13th will emerge?!

Could it be true?! Aaron, Sloan, and your Stepmom Cody watched...a GOOD movie?! They did, but they still have hot takes, baby! The Slashertracks crew will also discuss interpretations of the film, the murder ballad "Tom Dooley," and composer Disasterpeace.
