About this listen

 In this week’s episode, Zena and Shelby are joined by the dynamic duo Tammy Reese and LaKisa Renee of the Tales From The Media podcast to dig into one deliciously disturbing question: Why are we so obsessed with horror? From the adrenaline rush of being scared to the comfort of controlled chaos, the crew unpacks why we love fear so much. Is horror actually therapeutic…or are we just emotionally self-sabotaging for fun? They also dive into how horror is thriving in the social media age, whether going viral makes films scarier, and drop their ultimate horror hot takes! Let’s get bloody and disgusting. On Saturday, February 28, we’re hosting a LIVE watch party for BLOOD BARN over on Bloody Disgusting’s Discord! We’ll be watching together in real time, and the film’s writer/director Gabe Bernini and writer Alexandra Jade will be hanging out and chatting with everyone. Join us on Discord: https://discord.gg/nYKVA2WG BLOOD BARN is a retro comedy-horror slasher packed with throwback vibes and a bloody twist! It's perfect for fans of practical effects, campy kills, and chaotic fun. Got a horror question you’ve been dying to ask us? Don’t be shy, we don’t bite…much! We want to hear from you!
