Welcome to the podcast where we turn our rage into content. Each episode, we deep-dive into whatever is currently grinding our gears, from everyday annoyances to the kind of stuff that makes you yell at clouds. This week, we're sinking our teeth into Interview With the Vampire TV Series, the phenomenal adaptation of Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles, and the recent The Vampire Lestat season. Which, of course, sent us spiralling into a conversation about Queen of the Damned, the film adaptation that somehow had all the source material and still managed to miss the point.
Was Queen of the Damned really as bad as we remembered? Or has time softened the blow? That debate quickly snowballs into a bigger discussion about what makes a great book adaptation, and why so many Hollywood adaptations completely lose what made the original special.
Along the way, we compare adaptation hits and misses and debate why some adaptations become classics while others leave fans wondering if the filmmakers even opened the book. If you enjoy dissecting movies versus books, or just want to hear two people passionately argue about the best and worst adaptations ever made, this episode is for you.

The only way Edwina could get her husband to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer was by starting a podcast about it! This episode, we're talking about the  Him and how it is perhaps one of the worst aged episodes of Buffy.

Join us as we discuss Anya's tragic backstory, her darkest choices, and the emotional conflict that puts the Scoobies at odds

Welcome to the podcast where we turn our rage into content. Each episode, we deep-dive into whatever is currently grinding our gears, from everyday annoyances to the kind of stuff that makes you yell at clouds. If you’re a confused Gen-Xer or Elder Millennial who is confused about why the teens are going nuts for an A24 arthouse movie, we have the podcast for you. I was left incredibly confused by my kids begging me to go see the movie Backrooms, that I went down a very interesting rabbit hole, so you don’t have to.
