[10x10] We did it! Vampire Videos has reached 100 episodes (ahem, +15 bonus specials), and it's time to mark this impressive milestone with a super-sized special. Do you have ~4 hours to get through this episode in one sitting? If not, don't worry, there are approximate time stamps if you want to jump around a bit... (00:02:26) INTRODUCTION Dan and Hugh reflect on 31 months of making Vampire Videos together, including a funny insight into the Discord message that started the ball rolling in March 2022. We also read listener messages about reaching 100 episodes, with many more interspersed between the other segments.

(01:51:27) GUEST ROUNDTABLE Dan and Hugh hosted a Zoom chat with our three most prolific guests - Mary Muñoz, Tony Black, and Dee Molumby. We discussed the show, spoke about our personal experiences being involved, shared a few memorable recording moments, reflected on some of the awful films we had to endure, gave our thoughts on modern vampire media in general, and… revealed our faces for the first time. That's right, Dan and Hugh finally clap eyes on each other after two years. (02:39:19) TOP 100 VAMPIRE FILMS We've been counting down the Top 100 films and TV shows we've covered on social media in the run-up to this episode. But now you can hear our thoughts on the scummy dreck that didn't even make the Top 100 chart... before we unveil our Top 20 Vampire Films.  (03:38:39) FANGED FUTURE  A short wrap-up with some amusing facts and stats about the show (like our “stake to live” ratio so far), and end with a tease of what the future holds for the next hundred episodes. That's if we make it that far! Hosts: Dan Owen & Hugh McStay Guests: Chris Brosnahan, Tony Black, Dee Molumby & Mary Muñoz.
