It’s our second SHOCKTOBER episode (not that you’d know it, because Dan keeps forgetting to plug in the fucking Shocktober theme)! This time, we return to the social media horror well, with Friend Request. Meanwhile, Elliott gives a peek behind the curtain of Teddy Ruxpin fanatics, Stuart tells us what this movie really should be called, and Dan… well we’re still mad at Dan for NOT PUTTING IN THE GODDAMN SHOCKTOBER THEME.

Wait, what? You guys don’t hear the moaning and chain rattling over the theme music? And right now? And constantly, all of the time, everywhere you go?
Should I rewatch Hold the Dark? There were some really great scenes but on the whole I thought it was bad-bad.

Thank you!
Where’s Hallie this Shocktober? Did she ever see that ghost?
Yes, but she unfortunately didn’t pay it. 🙁
Stewart “The Beef” Wellington is right there, dangling, juicy, waiting to be plucked from the joke tree!
Other prime cuts/ripe fruits (in my opinion at least):
Elliott “The Kid” Kalan
Elliott “Wailin'” Kalan
Dan “Keepin’ It Real” McCoy
Dan “Ch’Boy” McCoy
Dan “RadSad” McCoy
