14 OTT 2024 · Gore-dan and HELL-ex take a dive into the musty vaults of the early '90s to unearth the SLASHinating facts behind "Tales From the Crypt," arguably the scariest thing to come out of Joel Silver's career, except for all the things that haven't been unsealed!

Your pals of putrescence dive into the history of EC Comics, the trailblazing comics label that provided the source material, the weird German guy (not that one) who killed them off, and the wave of nostalgia that carried four of Hollywood's biggest power players in the '80s and '90s to create a well-funded, creatively free long-running project that everyone was excited to be a part of! They'll tackle the positively insane guest list cast, the weird spin-offs, how much Dennis Miller sucks, and other spooooooooky things like budgets and Nielsen ratings!

2 SET 2024 · Your leather-clad lizard kings of kinda cool stories are here to go deep on the Doors groundbreaking debut album — and, of course, the electric shaman himself: Mr. James Douglas Morrison. You'll hear all about Jim's tumultuous upbringing with a father who quite possibly started the Vietnam War and his estranged relationship with his family, as well as all of the literary (and pharmaceutical) influences that went into his lyrical poetry, and numerous run-ins with censorship and the law. You’ll also learn all about the chance meeting(s)that lead to the Doors creation, the corporate training film that would yield their first recordings, their historic first use of billboards and Moog synths — and the time Jim dropped acid during a session and destroyed the recording studio.

16 AGO 2024 · Jordan and Alex take a trip to True Crime country and it drive them to the brink of insanity as they unravel the tangled web of the most famous haunted house in America. You'll learn about the horrific real-life murder at the center of the story, which took place at 112 Ocean Avenue in 1974 and claimed the life of six members of the DeFeo family. Then you'll learn about the puzzling saga of the next family to move into the home, the Lutz's, who claimed they were tormented by evil spirits within the home for four weeks — leading them to flee in the dead of night, never to set foot in the house again. Were they telling the truth, or was it all part of an elaborate scam? (Alex has some thoughts!) In either case, the incident inspired a controversial best-selling book which yielded a Hollywood blockbuster that spawned dozens of imitators (over 40 to date!) and an untold number of lawsuits. This episode is NOT for the faint of heart, so strap in — Jodie the demonic pig is waiting for you...See https://omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

22 LUG 2024 · Today Jordan and Alex set the sights on one of the most unique albums of the ‘90s, which turns 30 years old this summer.
