Happy birthday, America! Before you go out and celebrate our country by blowing up a small part of it, make sure to embrace your inner patriot with The Grave Plot Podcast!

Our Real World Horror story this episode is vaguely relevant, as we discuss an alcoholic energy drink that is...

Frack yeah! We’ve got a new episode dedicated to the dangers of fracking (apparently)!

Okay, so first off let us apologize to those of you who were looking forward to our review of Godzilla: King of the Monsters . To paraphrase Dr. Ian Malcom, life, uh… got in the way.

Listen in to our reviews of Jenn Wexler’s The Ranger and Roxanne Benjamin...
