The Horror Pod Class
Tyler is a teacher. Orrin is a weirdo who likes spooky movies. Together, they present FREE screenings of horror movies both old and new, classic and obscure at Kansas City’s own Stray Cat Film Center, accompanied by semi-academic discussion of the film’s history, themes, and how (or if) it might be used in a classroom.
Will you learn something? Probably. Will it be scary? Sometimes. Will it be useful? Almost certainly not.
Join us each and every month (except July, when Tyler is on summer break) at the Stray Cat. We’ll screen a film absolutely free and then stick around afterward for a live podcast recording complete with drawings where you can win fun, thematic giveaways!
Check out our show notes to see what you’ve been missing!
