The best horror analysis podcast for the BIG questions we ask of horror movies and literature: The symbolism of slime? A zombie zeitgeist? Your weapon choice to survive a slasher? Anyone can summarize and review a horror movie but there's SO much more to horror than the list of shrills and kills. Horror is the genre pushing boundaries and taking society to task with monsters and mayhem, slashing and sex/gender play. Horror is EXTRA, and you need a friend (or podcast host) to ask, "WTF did I just watch?" Let's slice open the underbelly of horror and get schooled in spooky!

If It Bleeds, It Leads with Journalist and Author Chris Riker

We’re back and jumping right into the scandalous worlds of storytelling and journalism with former CNN International journalist, Chris Riker.

Join us as we dissect the gripping themes of the Australian sci-fi horror, Monolith (2022) and the allegory that calls out and rips open the dire state of today’s media landscape. 

Learn more from Chris on how horror, creativity, and ethics interweave in both journalism and his own writing.

And with Riker's experience at the forefront of free speech and the art of character-driven narratives, this conversation could not speak to our current moment more. 

Ready to explore the moral challenges journalists face and a haunting vision of our future media landscape?


Well, welcome back to Season 5!
