We come roaring… well, stumbling, back with 2/3rds of The Flop House crew, plus Spanish-language podcasting superstar Federico Hatoum. And the good news is, we’ve returned in time for Shocktober, with the incorrectly-named Blood: The Last Vampire. Meanwhile, Elliott and Dan engage in a competition as to who can get divorced first, and Fed beguiles us with the beauty of his native tongue.

0:00 – 0:37 – Introduction and SHOCKTOBER theme.
0:38 – 8:47 – We spend nearly ten minutes introducing our special guest Federico Hatoum, and explaining why we’ve been M.I.A. for over a month.
8:48 – 28:49 – We talk about Blood: The Last Vampire… or, more accurately, “CG Blood: The Last Vampire.”
29:50- 34:36- Final judgments
34:37 – 47:54 – PLUGS! which eventually devolve into a series of mouth-sounds.
47:55 – 58:52 – The sad bastards recommend.
58:53 – 1:00:12 – Goodbyes, theme, and outtakes.
