After a discussion, we decided an end of the year round up might be necessary in case any […]

From the kick starter of the Satanic Panic to 2 of the prominent talk show figures of the era, Ed and Lorraine Warren. Now, they weren't so much involved in the ritualistic abuse side of things, moreso the paranormal/spiritual research. Nonetheless, though they had been around for a few decades prior, their stature lifted in […]

March will see a couple installments in the Products of the Panic series. First up is a documentary Troy and I have been waiting to go over since its announcement – Satan Wants You. Largely a festival film last year, it dropped on Tubi for mass consumption back in December of 2023. Satan Wants You […]

Products of the Panic is already back. This time, Troy and I discuss one that has been mentioned a few times, INDICTMENT: THE MCMARTIN TRIAL. This is an Emmy Award winning television movie that HBO produced back in 1995 starring James Woods, Mercedes Ruehl and Henry Thomas. The film takes a look at one of […]

Products of the Panic is back for its third installment. This time, Troy and I look at the absolutely ludicrous Geraldo Rivera prime time special from 1988 called “Devil Worship: Exposing Satan's Underground.” This one features loads of “bull” and even Ozzy Osbourne makes an appearance. “Products of the Panic” a recurring segment on this […]

And here we are. Something I never knew was in the works or “out there” until just a fews weeks or months ago. A sequel to my beloved WNUF Halloween Special. This second addition to the television nostalgia found footage flick of 2013 jumps ahead to the 1990s and parodies the likes of Ricki Lake […]

Our last song with Troy on The Summer of '82 at 40 is another one that took a while to be a big hit. Steve Miller Band is a well known commodity, though I'm not sure much in the way of music videos. Troy and I talk this weird one that is a total relic […]

The summer's biggest song from one of its biggest movies – Survivor's “Eye of the Tiger” is here. And our returning champion Troy Brownfied is here to dissect and devour it. Did you know that Stallone originally wanted “Another One Bites the Dust” by Queen for Rocky III? Once rejected, he commissioned Survivor to write […]

Juice Newton had been around for quite some time before busting loose with her previous album in 1981 that had such biggies as “Angel of the Morning” and “Queen of Hearts”. “Love's Been a Little Bit Hard on Me” continued the climb of hits.

Troy Brownfield completes your roster for the Summer of '82 at 40 music video series guests. And funny enough, like his first appearance on the show, we are talking about a music video that is very inspired by the Universal Classic Monsters. Ray Parker Jr has a legacy of being known only for the Ghostbusters […]

Wheatus seems an odd choice for a Satanic Panic music video to tie into Monday's episode. But a closer glance at the genesis of the song's lyrics and you'll see it is incredibly relevant to the topic. Troy Brownfield (who has seen Wheatus in concert) rejoins and we go over the song, the video, touch […]

Products of the Panic is back for its second installment. This time we look at a 60 minutes segment on the dangers of Dungeons & Dragons that aired in 1985. This irresponsible slampiece tried to prove it was driving children to commit murder or kill themselves. It's a pretty astounding example of terrible journalism. Crazy […]

We return with part 2 of our Hell's Bells discussion. Hell's Bells is a 3 hour documentary that goes after the rock and 80s heavy metal scene as well as just general pop music. It's available to watch on YouTube or Archive.org. It's insane to believe that this was made and hear the things said […]

Wow – It's been over a month since we did a music video episode! Bananrama was an easy choice as it was featured in the documentary we were discussing on Monday. “Venus” is actually a cover song made even more famous than before with Bananarama. Troy is back to discuss the video. When studying and […]

Time to get metal once again! Fitting perfectly with Hawk The Slayer this week, Troy Brownfield and I discuss the sword and sorcery inspired “Holy Diver” from Dio. We also dive into fantasy and metal's bond to one another and the career of the great Ronnie James Dio. Due to copyright and fair use laws […]

Troy Brownfield becomes the first guest to return for a third time However, he's somehow managed to not be on a regular episode proper yet. He was a part of the first roundtable and then appeared during the Holiday Gift Guide series. So now, he's checking that off his list. He's brought 80s sword and […]

This week, we shift our gears on the show for an idea I had around launch. As an avid Black Friday Blu-ray shopping enthusiast and someone who is a bit specific in my interests when it comes to buying gifts for during the holiday season, I thought it would be cool to have some episodes […]

Continuing on with 2019’s Out Now with Aaron and Abe horror specials, it’s time to go over horror scenes in non-horror movies. Aaron is joined by Cult Cinema Cavalcade’s Brandon Peters and the Saturday Evening Post’s Troy Brownfield to discuss how the horror genre tends to find a way to permeate other genres.

It's the scary season, and as they've done for the past couple of years, Gene and Derek talk about some of this year's Halloween specials and seasonal horror titles. In this episode you'll hear the Two Guys with PhDs discuss: Haunted Horror: Pre-Code Comics So Good, They're Scary!, edited by Craig Yoe, Clizia Gussoni, and Steve Banes (IDW Publishing) Upside Down: A Hat Full of Spells, by Jess Smart Smiley (Top Shelf) Monsterjunkies: An American Family Odyssey, Erik Daniel Shein, Theresa A. Gates, and Jay Fotos Studios (Red Anvil) The Goon: Theatre Bizarre, by Eric Powell and John Dunivant (Dark Horse Comics) Adventure Time 2015 Spoooktacular, by Hanna K. (Kaboom!) Spongebob Comics #49, edited by Chris Duffy (United Plankton Pictures/Bongo Comics) All Hallows' Eve #5, by Ty Thomas Luckman, Trevor Luckman, and Dave Mims (215 Ink) Elder House #2, by Drew Matthews and Carlos Trigo (215 Ink) Grimm Fairy Tales 2015 Halloween Special, by Joe Brusha, Ralph Tedesco, Troy Brownfield, and Mario Del Pennino (Zenescope) Zombies vs. Cheerleaders 2015 Halloween Special, edited by Steven L. Frank (Zenescope) Zombie Tramp Halloween Special, by Dan Mendoza (Action Lab) Gold Digger Halloween Special, edited by Doug Dlin and Robby Bevard (Antarctic Press) Derek and Gene spend much of their time discussing their favorite book of the week, the latest volume of Haunted Horror. There are a lot of spooky and just plain weird titles in this collection -- case in point: "Ghost from Mars" -- and the guys could have easily spent the entire episode talking about Craig Yoe's latest effort. But they have a lot of ground to cover, so they move on from there to the other offerings. Titles such as Upside Down, Monsterjunkies, Adventure Time 2015 Spoooktacular, and Spongebob Comics are perfect for those younger readers getting ready to go trick or treating...or, in the case of Spongebob, even for those older readers staying in and giving out the candy. The guys also discuss the pros and cons of seasonal titles that are part of an ongoing storyline -- for example, this Halloween's Adventure Time and Grimm Fairy Tales -- and the attraction of certain issues, such as The Goon: Theatre Bizarre and All Hallows' Eve, that easily stand on their own outside of any series continuity. And then there are seasonal titles such as Zombies vs. Cheerleaders and Gold Digger, for which Gene and Derek feel at a total lost. Still, the guys have a good time talking about this year's Halloween comics, even if they don't understand them all.
