Terrible Book Club
Join Chris & Paris every other Tuesday to discover if you really can judge a book by its hideous cover, bad title, or weird synopsis.
Episode 70 - Crimson Peak: The Official Movie Novelization by Nancy Holder, Guillermo del Toro, & Matthew Robbins *Special Guests D & Ken from Antiques Freaks and Patron's Choice*
When D & Ken listened to 30 seconds of our podcast and told us we were good, we immediately invited them onto our show as guests and then got podcast married.
Our ghost moms warned us to, "Beware the Old-Stuff-Weirdos," but there's no way that refers to the Antiques Freaks.
D calls in their Patron debt and forces us to read Crimson Peak. We also watched Crimson Peak for Patrons.
Paris has already seen Crimson Peak once before and hated it. After a week steeped in Crimson Peak, Paris has the equivalent of 4 beers lined up for this recording because she's had enough of this damned film and its book counterpart.
Content Warnings: In addition to our usual barnyard language, we discuss ghosts, gore, blood, sex, and incest.
