Tim and Jen enlist animal expert Emma Bowers (Hyenas and Gin on YouTube) to explain why the fascinating story of two man-eating lions resulted in a boring movie called The Ghost and the Darkness.
Hey folks! Jen here to explain why you’re still waiting patiently for this month's episodes. It is the time of year for my customary Protracted Upper Respiratory Infection, which has put somewhat of a dent in productivity here at HYST headquarters (not to mention my voice). We are, however, planning a full complement of epi...

Jen and Tim welcome returning guest Darren Herczeg to go to bat for an almost universally loathed Netflix feature, Blonde. Naturally, the trio revel in the film’s grotesque and overt misogyny while twirling their mustaches.
Hey subscribers! While you're waiting for the next episode, why not sample a short video featuring your hosts? We riffed, MST3K-style, a weird old p0rnographic* cartoon we found embedded in a German sex film from the 1970s. This one's spicy, so maybe don't watch it around those with innocent eyes or delicate ears. 2023-01-01 18:00:07 +0000 UTC View Post
Our next episode will cover the widely reviled Netflix biopic, BLONDE, which is, of course, about Marilyn Blonde. We'll update you soon with a release date. In the meantime, we here at HYST wish you a joyous holiday if you celebrate, and if you're working, we hope they let you off early!

Tim and Jen start spooky season early with a shockingly dark release from Disney, Return to Oz.
