Doggy criminals, bad adaptations, and questionable loads, oh my! Shaun Duke, Alex Acks, and Becca Evans join forces to tackle the VHS release you probably didn’t know you needed of An All Dogs Christmas Carol (1998)! Through a long string of hilarious tangents, they tackle the film’s approach to the classic Dickens story, rage about bad dog owners, tell some stories about the composer, and far too many things to list here!

Banger songs, imagining better futures, and Saul Williams, oh my! Shaun Duke and Brandon O’Brien listen to the folks at the Hugo Book Club Blog and discuss Neptune Frost! Together, they discuss the film’s creation, how it approaches the musical genre, what its story tells us about our world, and, frankly, so much more in much more specific terms.
