Jigsquad Pod is a limited-run, weekly podcast discussing the Saw franchise, movie by movie. Hosted by Z (they/them), a horror fanatic who tied their ship to this falling star 7 years ago, for reasons they can't begin to explain. Except now they will, through this podcast. Z is joined every episode by a rotating cast of guests who all have strong opinions on the franchise, one way or another. Warning for sensitive and graphic content, as well as series-wide spoilers. Nothing is left on the table.
