Kalid and Joe are back after a bit of a break! We're coming back hot and finally taking the time to do a deep dive into the creature that started it all for us. Joined by comedian & historian, Dawn Brodey, the crew chat about Frankenstein's Monster! Specfically, we talk about Mary Shelley's novel, the 1931 Universal film, Frankenstein, directed by James Whale, and the 1994 adaptation, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, from Kenneth Branagh.
