Take 98...Take 99...DON'T THROW AWAY MY CHINESE FOOD! (The Shining with author Alex Grass)
Press Play and Scream
08/12/22 • 62 min
We're back with our most divisive episode yet! Josh "Brian" Bermont and Kelly Hager discuss The Shining and we put author Alex Grass in the middle. Is it a great movie? Who's to say? But it's definitely beloved by many people!
Alex handles his tiebreaker status with flair and just as a warning, do not eat or drink during this episode because there's a decent chance you'll choke. This could be our funniest episode to date and that's a high bar.
NOTE: There are spoilers in this episode.
