When Animals Attack Podcast

In Episode 26: Feline Fury, Jen and Nilo are joined by cat/horror experts Morgan Woolsey and Ben Raphael Sher to discuss what happens when good cats go bad! (Spoiler: they don't.

We share an irl story of a family (supposedly) terrorized by a housecat before spending the majority of the episode digging into a range of cat horror films, including Strays, The Uncanny, Eye of the Cat, and Hausu, with brief references to Kuroneko, Uninvited, Demonia, Devil Story, Let the Right One In, The Black Cat, and more. For more from Ben and Morgan, you can find them on IG - @benraphaelsher and @quellehorror, respectively.

Known variously as vampires, witch's steeds, and sexual perverts, across myriad cultures and throughout human history the hyena has haunted our collective imagination. In the words of Peter Hathaway Capstick, “From the first, faraway woooo-uppp of the pack gathering to the sniggering chitter of the kill, the hyena is telling you something you don't want to be reminded of: you're just the meat after all and your day will come.” In episode 24, Jen and Nilo share stories of some unfortunate humans' encounters with these cackling creatures and discuss the dubious merits of Hyenas (2011) and Endangered Species (2021).

In Episode 17, Nilo & Jen are joined by CSU Fullerton Professor Chelsea Julian Reynolds to discuss predatory porpoises! Dolphins may seem cute, playful, and even magical… and they are.
