This week, we watch one of Aaron's favorite childhood VHSes, "The Easter Story Keepers!" Listen as we discuss its astonishingly bad animation, Tim Curry's music video, and if your parents are cool if they fake crucified you at 3 years of age. 

Also, apologies for the audio quality after the 1 hour mark, we lost the last twenty minutes and had to rely on our backup. I think it's still pretty good, tbh.
