Something's foul in the air, and we swear it's not us. Your host Chad Quandt is joined by triple-threat actor/writer/wrestler James Willems (Answer For It!, Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed, Funhaus) to discuss one of Junji Ito's largest works; the stinky book Gyo (known as 'Fish: Ghastly Squirming' in Japan).

Chad Quandt is joined by guest Payton Whaley (Flyover Culture, A Moment of Science) to review the first of many Lego movies about the dark fantasy island Mata Nui who is protected by Toa elemental warriors.

Hope you're hungry for podcasts, Goosebuddies. Your hosts Chad Quandt, Paul Ritchey, and Kevin Cole celebrate the end of an era for this show by watching the 90s Are You Afraid of the Dark episode 'The Tale of the Dangerous Soup'. Dr. Vink is running a strange bistro with an expensive soup that is bringing old rich people in by the bakers' dozen! But what's the secret ingredient? What's the deal with this lawn ornament? Why is it being milked? And hey Neve Campbell is in this! They also discuss Uncle Ben in card games and Wolverine's brain regenerating.And this is the last official episode with Paul and Kevin as regular hosts. They'll both be missed and their spirits will linger over the campfire for decades to come. This is a big shift in The Ice Church mandates. Thank you all for listening and Chad will return for the third wave of Goosebuds later this month!

Ever since we were young boys, we watched Are You Afraid of the Dark/ From Philly to South Bend, we've seen them all/ But somehow this is the first time we're covering the show on Goosebuds!/ That sure was a mean episode!The Goosebuds Boys Chad Quandt and Kevin Cole check out the 90s Nickelodeon episode Are You Afraid of the Dark called 'The Tale of the Pinball Wizard'. This is a very inaccurate portrayal of pinball and arcade games. Sorta what your grandpa thinks a SNES game is. But poor Ross is sucked into this mall adventure where rules are nonsense and quarters are sometimes marbles! We also end up discussing the upcoming Avatar the Last Airbender X Magic the Gathering set.

Have you ever wondered where toys come from? They're not really from Santa Claus nor your divorced parents trying to win your love. They're from Japan!
