It is so good to see you back! I had given up on ever seeing a new episode, so I was very happy to see itunes download a new file.
This is one of the few podcasts that have "smart talk" about horror.
Thanks for the fine efforts in the past, I'm off to check out #10

I agree
also, i dont know if you got my email, but i think a cool topic would be horror video games (residnet evil, silent hill....)
