Episode 254 - Grimoires with Owen Davies
First we chat about a weird little chupacabra play Ben saw, then discuss the conspiracies that have metastasized from Joe Biden's prostate cancer and the resurgence of our old nemesis the Food Babe. For our main topic, we have esteemed historian of magic Owen Davies, who wrote the book (two, actually) on grimoires. In pop culture we see them in horror movies, comic books and even old children's movies like "Bedknobs and Broomsticks," but real (or "real") grimoires have been an ever-present relic for thousands of years. Grimoires are a mix of magic, marketing, fraud -- and sometimes blood...

His life covered a lot of different territory from architecture to education. He lived “an anarchism rooted in everyday experience, and not necessarily linked to industrial and political struggles. His ideas were heavily influenced by Pet...

Doctor Sleep (2019) Director's Cut with Owen Ward
We say farewell to Spooky Month by taking on Mike Flanagan's increasingly reclaimed, three-hour adaptation of Stephen King's Doctor Sleep with the one and only, Owen Ward. The fellas discuss why this film left people feeling a bit mixed upon release and how it has only grown in fans' estimations since then. What separates this film from the many other legacy sequels and trauma-core horror films? Does this film escape the shadow of The Shining? Is this actually the definitive Stephen King adaptation? All is discussed in this grand finale to our horror month.
