This episode’s a doozy. IGNORANCE IS BLISS is a fun and catchy time, and then TOMORROW’S NOBODIES…yikes. Well, they can’t all be zingers! Alex and Tom very much enjoy the comments, though. Those are great!

Things get grim, grisly and monstrous in our first FITC, a sub-series where we look at movies by Flash creators! Tom and Alex start with David Firth’s anthology film over a decade in the making, and deep-dive into every greasy nook and cranny. Long and passionate discussion ensues, and hopefully you’ll enjoy joining us for it.

**content warning: violence, gore, suicide, sexual assault…a lot.**
