This week we watch one of the most disturbing movies we have watched on NS in a LONG time! Join us while we review The Blob (1988) and discover exactly how desensitized Courtney is. After the show Cayla brings us the mystery of the Oakville Blobs. A real life mystery that continues to evade explanation - Although there are some pretty probable solutions.
