For this year’s Extra Special Halloween Special, we resurrected the format from two years ago and have a high stakes debate and create a Halloween playlist! First up, the Great Debate of 2014! REMAKES! Useless trash or the next generation folklore? Are remakes a good or bad thing? Should there be more creativity in film or is it a perfectly good practice to remake or re-envision ideas that have come before? On the anti-remake side we have the team of The Princess Ballz featuring "Morbid" MonsterZero & "Beautiful" Bobby Chaynz. The pro-remake team known as John Saxon's Hair Pieces is comprised of "Scintillating" Stephanie Wiley & "The Dilettante" Dynamo Marz! Who wins? Well ya gotta listen to find out! After the dust settles and we hug it out, we set out to construct the ultimate Halloween playlist part 2! What songs did we pick? How are you going to whittle a list of 30 down to 13?! What in the world gets voted off the list? My dear friends, you’ll need to listen to find out, once again! If that's not enough for you, you get the triumphant return of a motorcycle riding titan in studio and tons of awesome voicemail cameos from such friends and luminaries as: Andrea Wolanin from Wicked Bird Media, Brian Harris from Weng’s Chop, CDR and Jake from the CULT OF MUSCLE!, El Goro from Talk Without Rhythm, musician and writer Gregory Burkart, Alexander and Jeanette Andriulli from Haunting TV, Jason Voorhees from Crystal Lake, writer Patrick Rahall, our own Michael Ravenshadow (3 times), time-traveling member of The Deadites Silica, the movie reviewing dragon Sing Sang Soon, and evil mastermind Dr. Joey Tron.
