When you do a podcast for a while, you end up with a lot of unofficial guests.
This week we're losing one of the greats. Ben's cat, Blargy, has wandered into more episodes than any guests and we are sad to say we're having to say goodbye.

We had to take a week off due to illness because @aliciawhitley.bsky.social is the one person on the team we can't sub out for. Otherwise, you guys would have had a three hour podcast of us rambling endlessly which would have started a war with Australia.
It's the most overwhelming time of the year!
BUT
Our episode w/ @penzerker.bsky.social is up! Come join us to talk about an Australian Christmas Horror movie with trans-girl lead as we return to the works of @alicemaiomackay.bsky.social with Carnage for Christmas shows.acast.com/progressivel...

Hey sorry for the delay, @jeremywhitley.bsky.social here. Our editor/wife @aliciawhitley.bsky.social had a 103 degree fever when she would normally be editing this week's episode and I was doing my best to keep her alive and keep everything running.
There's no episode this week, but we'll be back!

Hey Horribles,
It looks like our episode for this week is going to run a little late! We talked about the Apple TV show Severance for Emily's birthday and, boy, did we have a lot to say!
Stick around, it'll be worth the wait!

While my episode is about being a good issue 1, I cannot wait for Issue 2. The book might've been tailor made for my wife, and seeing her read it made me happy. I'm also just happy to have something from Marvel on my list.

We're looking to talk to folks about horror movies with black directors coming up. You got a movie with a black director you wanna champion that we haven't already talked about? Come talk to us!
So @proghorrorpod.bsky.social is starting to put together episodes for Black Directors' Month next year.

Do you have horror films by black directors you think people should be talking about that are flying under the radar?
October 28, 2025 at 4:27 PM
What you got?
Finally sitting down to watch Weapons and I wanna know, #HorrorSky what's making your list for Best Horror movies of 2025?

It's time for our final trans directed horror film of October, its T-Blockers and it is completely disinterested in the prospect of chewing gum. It was only ever interested in kicking ass. shows.acast.com/progressivel...
