About this listen

  • Siblings or Dating?: Crimson Peak
    May 9 2026

    Hi there, and welcome to our last Guillermo del Toro episode! Today, we're talking about Crimson Peak (2015), a love letter to gothic horror and a real romp if you love creepy yet helpful ghosts, weird siblings, naive blondes, and tiny Victorian sunglasses. We both love gothic horror, so we have a lot to say about this text. Hope you enjoy it!

  • Gone Fishin': The Shape of Water
    Apr 25 2026

    Well, hi there! Welcome to our third episode on Guillermo del Toro's work. This week, we're talking about The Shape of Water, a 2017 film that received just a ton of accolades, including Oscars for best picture and best director. Please enjoy our very silly attempts to read the film closely--maybe too closely.

    Thanks for listening!

  • Eyeball Stigmata: Pan's Labyrinth
    Apr 4 2026

    Hello hello! This week, we're talking about Pan's Labyrinth, an objectively great movie that Charlie thinks is also a bummer. While they're not wrong, Mandy argues that it is also a beautiful film with lots to think about. We have a good discussion about it, though, so don't worry!

    As always, feel free to give us a great rating. We'd appreciate it!
