This week's show is the promised Ask May Anything episode that was announced and came together very quickly. Listeners ask your intrepid host about all sorts of wild, weird things from real-life scares to fantasy superhero teams to, frankly, complete filth that I'm not too happy about. LOL. Every song in this episode has been released in the past few weeks except for one which is the world podcast premiere of your host's old band: "NERO" by Godflesh, "Millions of Spyders" by Stricken, "Midnight Boy" by Dorthia Cottrell, "Death Lurks At Every Turn" by Margarita Witch Cult, "When the Shooting's Done" by Grave Pleasures, and "An Offering to the Night" by Jesus Piece.

It's a monster movie extravaganza this week here on Dread Media. In the first of a double feature with Desmond and Tom, a giant insect attacks a weird hospital in the bizarrely titled Blue Monkey.

This week, Desmond and Tom get a little spoilery in our review of one of the best movies of 2022: The Menu.

Songs included: "Hungry for Your insides" by Sanguisugabogg, "Food" by The Pursuit of Happiness, "The Good Ship Lollipop" by Venomous Concept, and "The Weatherman" by Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs.

This week, Desmond and Tom investigate the case of the two movies from 2022 featuring West Point Cadet Edgar Allan Poe.

This week we have a selection of songs inspired by Edgar Allan Poe arranged from least abrasive to most: "Nevermore" by Queen, "The Tell-Tale Heart" by The Alan Parsons Project, "Ravens Guide Our Way" by Grand Magus, and "Carry Stress in the Jaw" by Mr. Bungle.

This week on the show, Desmond and Tom sit through the absolutely misguided 2022 French Canadian remake of Terror Train. Then, Desmond seems to think it's a good idea to cover that film's sequel, Terror Train 2, and the original film that started it all. Train tunes: "Murdertrain a Comin'" by Dethklok, "Do I Have to Do This All Over Again?" by The Monkees, "Black Train" by Moistboyz, "Train of Consequences" by Megadeth, and "When the Link Becomes Missing" by Control Denied.

Nothing sounds quite like an 8-0-8! And we're going analogue this week. First up, Desmond and Tom check rent the next instalment in the V/H/S series, V/H/S/99. Then, Desmond goes solo on the very divisive Skinamarink, and he very definitively comes down on one side of the argument. Three out of four of these songs were released in 1999: "Surfacing" by Slipknot, "I'm The Slime" by Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention, "What if...?" by Control Denied, and "Helena" by The Misfits.

After seven long years, our old friend Jeff Strand has returned to chat about some of the multitude of books he's published since we last talked. The two books of focus are his brand new novel, Demonic, and his book on pre-order, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: The Novelization. Yes, you read that right. Then, Jeff sticks around and we do a Double Dread Media Top 5 Jeff Strand Books. Jeff picks his favourites, and Desmond picks a Jeff Strand Starter Kit of books. Songs included: "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" by John de Bello, "Let Me Bathe in Demonic Light" by The Mountain Goats, "Pressure Release" by Vitamin X, "A Dialogue in B Flat Minor" by In Flames.
