This week on Podcasting After Dark, Zak & Corey are joined by Tim & Dean from Talking Back to review The Toxic Avenger remake! The boys discuss how this one compares to the original, what it gets right (so friggin’ much), and maybe what it gets wrong (nobody’s perfect lol).

We hope everyone enjoyed this month of Toxie! It was a fun way to close out 2025 and ring in the new year! We have everyone has a fun and safe New Year’s Eve!
