The Buzzed Kill Podcast

Episode 105 - What A Buncha Clowns September is here folks, and you know what that means. Fall officially starts, the shorts and t-shirts get traded up for hoodies and jeans, pumpkin spice lattes become the only thing you see on instagram for about a month, and last, but certainly not least, September marks the beginning of Halloween season for us horror fans. Perhaps more important than all of th...

Episode 104 - Deader Is Better There's an old saying that goes, "You can't teach an old dog new tricks". You've all heard it before, right? It's a good saying, but there is an even better one that you might NOT have heard. It goes, "You can't bring an old dog back from the dead and expect it not to bite you in the ass." Ok, we made that one up, but we think it's pretty good. It could apply to a nu...

Episode 103 - A Deep Space Cat-astrophie If there are two things in this world that go hand-in-hand, it's cats and space. When is the last time you saw a movie about a mission to the far reaches of the universe that didn't rely heavily on a cat as a main plot point? What would all of our favorite sci-fi movies be without the inclusion of many, many felines? Ok, you caught us. The jig is up. We kin...

Episode 102 - Bad Brew: A Second Look At Creepshow III We're all about two things here at The Buzzed Kill Podcast, good horror and good beer. However, every once in awhile, we have to remind ourselves that we are very very lucky. We have an almost endless catalogue of amazing films and delicious beer to choose from, but not everyone is in that same position. Some people don't have huge movie colle...

Episode 101 - Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Psycho If you didn't have a crush on one of your babysitters when you were a kid, it's safe to say that you weren't doing childhood correctly. We still remember our first babysitter crush. It was the summer of 1993. There she stood in our doorway on that first beautiful Michigan evening. With the sun setting behind her, we laid our eyes on her silhouet...

Episode 100 - 2018 SUMMER SLAYOFFS 100 episodes! We did it, guys. Can you hardly believe it? Yeah, we know, we can’t either. All of the blood, sweat, and tears have finally brought us to this point. A lot of blood. Mostly bloody. An unsettling amount of blood, really. Well, needless to say, we are excited that we’ve made it this far, and we decided to celebrate in the grandest fashion. We wrangled...

Episode 99 - Late Shift, Last Call Burning the midnight oil, dogwatch, graveyard shift, lobster trick. Whatever you call it, sometimes working late into the night is what you gotta do to stay in the black. Take us for instance. Every week we are putting in the extra hours, taking on the rigorous task of watching our favorite movies, and trying all kinds of new delicious beer. It can be quite exhau...

Episode 98 - Survival of the Drunkest Come on, sing it with us! You all know how it goes. YOU GOTTA FIGHT! *Dun *Dun FOR YOUR RIGHT! *Dun *Dun *Dun T0…. SURVIIIIIVE A HOSTEL SITUATION WHERE YOU’RE FORCED TO MURDER YOUR PEERS!!! Man, that really doesn’t roll off the tongue the way we thought it did in the 90’s. Maybe we’re remembering the lyrics wrong, but regardless, it does bring some interesting...

Episode 97 - Dragged To Hell: Return Of The Hot Sauce Challenge Everyone seems to have their own idea of Hell. Some people think it's fire, brimstone, and being tortured with hot pokers by Satan's minions, while others believe it's an eternal abyss. A vast nothingness where you are doomed to remain for the rest of eternity. We gotta be honest, neither one of those options seem too bad compared to...

Episode 96 - This Episode Is Really Campy Summer is here, folks, and you know what that means. Temperatures so hot you can barely breathe? You bet. Beautiful beaches with scorching sand, capable of giving you third degree burns? You know it! Constant swamp ass? Uncontrollable sweating? Bubbling, blistering sunburns? Yep, all of that! Gee, summer is kind of dangerous, but we don’t care. We love it....

Episode 95 - Welcome To Earth: An Independence Day Retrospective Happy 4th of July Weekend, everybody! We’re just sitting here thinking about freedom. We are so happy that we live in a place where we are free to live our lives the way we see fit. Isn’t it awesome? However, we are a little concerned about the things that are currently threatening our freedom. You know what we are referring to. The...

Episode 94 - Ninten-Don't Drink and Game We have a lot in common with each other over here at The Buzzed Kill Podcast, and that's probably why we are such good friends. We are all musicians, we all love camping, and not to state the obvious, but we all love beer, horror movies, and video games. We have to admit, the last two things on that list have never really impressed our parents very much. It...

Episode 93 - Sleep Par-ale-ysis As a horror movie podcast, we are certainly no strangers to horrifying imagery. On any given day you can find us watching things that other people only see in their nightmares. Things that would paralyze them with fear, figuratively speaking. Then there are the unfortunate souls for whom being paralyzed by their nightmares is all too real. Sleep paralysis is a stran...

Episode 92 - Why Is Everyone Screaming??? I scream, you scream, Dear God.... the children..... they’re screaming. Oh the humanity!!!! What’s with all the screaming, right? It seems our friendly neighborhood purveyor of delicious frozen treats is causing quite a stir around town. Generally we’d say, It’s nothing to be alarmed by. After all, the Good Humor Man didn’t earn that title for being a big...

Episode 91 - Net Brutality Imagine, if you can, a world where a few simple commands could produce anything you can imagine. A world where the entire recorded history of mankind is just a click away. Information traveling at the speed of light from one continent to another in all directions like little tendrils of knowledge descending upon the earth, forming a virtual “web” that connects us all. Co...

Episode 90 - Mind over Murder We know what you're thinking. No, that's not a figure of speech. We literally know what you're thinking. First of all, let us just say, Tina, you are very kind to think that we are the best Michigan-based horror podcast hosted by guys named Mike and Jim, who release episodes on Sundays. Next up, Dex, thanks for listening, and we don't know exactly why you're thinking...

Episode 89 - Mock-U-Mentality Horror movies are scary, right? At least the good ones are. However sometimes reality can be just as scary, if not more so. When a filmmaker wants to bring the horrors of the real world into the light of day, they make a documentary. Then there are the filmmakers who like to blur the lines between what is real and what is fantasy. Enter the horror mockumentary. They'r...

Episode 88 - Everybody Do The Creep Hey, how’s it going? Not too bad... Beautiful night, huh? Yeah it’s alright Wait.... Who is this??? It doesn’t matter. You look nice. Ummm.... ok? Is that a new shirt? It really brings out the color of your eyes. Wtf?????? I liked your outfit yesterday better though. Screw you, Creep. I’m calling the cops. No, wait. It’s just Mike and James from The Buzzed Kill...

Episode 87 - Tread Light, Speakeasy Psst... shhhh.... It's just us. We're not going to say much about this episode. We think it speaks (or doesn't speak) for itself. Without giving away too much about the episode, we just want to let you know that we finally saw A Quiet Place. So to celebrate that we decided to also watch Don't Breathe, then we got together and recorded ourselves not saying a word...

Episode 86 - A Land Of Make Beer-lieve Anyone who loves movies, especially genre movies, knows that part of their appeal is the feeling of escape that they offer. There’s nothing better than hitting play and slipping away into a world of fantasy for a little while. It’s such a good way to forget about the troubles of every day life. When you find yourself In a fairytale labyrinth, suddenly your mo...

Episode 85 - Bad' Day, Mate! Australia seems like an amazing place to visit. The Great Barrier Reef, The Sydney Opera House, Crocodile Dundee, Kangaroos, It all sounds great. Of course, Australia does have its drawbacks, as well. Poisonous snakes, gigantic spiders, blistering heat... and kangaroos. Yes, kangaroos made the pros AND the cons list, you know, because they are cute from a distance, but...

Episode 84 - From Hell, With Love Dear Boss, It's everyone's favorite East End butcher here. Saucy Jacky, The Leather Apron... Jack The Ripper at your service. This week, me best mates at The Buzzed Kill Podcast were kind enough to let a lowly old chap like meself crash the party to have a chat about me passion and the most important work of me life.... Slicing up a gaggle a' hookers. So, grab you...

Episode 83 - Wahl To Wahl Terror So, we are aware that there is a very real hint of disappointment amongst you all, and believe us, you're not the only ones. Much to the chagrin of Mike, Roommate Jen, and Justin, this week marked the return of James to the show, which also means that the short lived, but highly praised Blockhead Podcast has come to an end. Sorry folks, but if you're looking for al...

THE BLOCK HEAD PODCAST Episode 1 - Hangin' Tough, The Right Stuff & Tight Butts Welcome to the very first episode of the all-new THE BLOCK HEAD PODCAST! Mike and Justin (formerly of The Buzzed Kill Podcast), joined by new co-host Roommate Jen, dive into the world of pop sensations New Kids On The Block and go step by step through their journey from teen heartthrobs to adult superstars and everythi...

Episode 81 - I-rish You Were Here We don’t know a lot about Ireland. Basically, we know what we have been told by other people. All the typical stereotypes, you know? Like, the Irish like to drink, they like to sing, they occasionally fight just because they need a quick break from the drinking and singing, and everything else we learned from the Leprechaun series. Although stereotypes are usually...
