In this week's episode, we get ourselves to the movie theater and see the new Jordan Peele film "Us." Have you guys heard about this movie? We heard a couple people talking about it. Anyway, we're going to spoil it, so see it before you listen if you plan to see it at all. Special topics for your consideration include: a lot of theories about this film (including one very close to our podcast!), the state of modern day horror, chasing the scare dragon, memes, stans and some *light* blasphemy.  Did you miss our episode on "Get Out"? If so, it's Episode 124.  We've got some really exciting stuff to promote this week! First, our sponsor, Squamous Studios-- a design and art studio who create super cool tabletop RPGs, particularly in the horror genre. They'll be running a Kickstarter for their newest game, Arkham Relics Hunt, beginning May 2nd. THAT'S THIS WEEK!

Special topics for your consideration include: Pittsburgh (and national) treasure Michael Keaton, utilizing this film's therapeutic qualities, questionable Halloween costume ideas, "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," consequences for being a grosso and a shocking discovery about the screenwriter of this movie.  Yinz into Tim Burton?

This week we're rejoined by a previous guest: our pal/husband and yours (but not really your husband, that would be weird), Rob!
