Welcome back to the last episode of our Weekly Summer specials! We have made it through the mess that was the Twilight Saga (even Audacity didn't want to play those episodes normally) and now we're back in the calm waters of Nothing to Fear Monthly. Luke, Alex, and I talk about 2002's Ghost Ship, a surprisingly enjoyable romp including one of the w…

Oh my gosh, folks. We did it. We got to the end. *Aro laugh inserted* We have made it through the entire Twilight Saga. 2012 certainly was a time to make movies look like an Avengers film. I'm glad you took this ride with me. I hope you enjoyed it. I hope you had as much fun as I did. As we mentioned in the show, if there are some other sagas you t…

Folks! Grab your recently married spouses and head off to a privately owned island in Brazil because we're talking about the most horrifying movie in the Twilight Saga to date. Not this movie touting the virtues of waiting until marriage to have sex, only to show the more horrific consequence of it. Sorry, Bella. You deserved better. But at least w…

In keeping with our discussion of the Twilight franchise, we decided to recast Billie for the third full episode. All of her lines have been re-recorded by Bryce Dallas Howard. Just kidding. Billie is irreplaceable. Justice for Rachelle LeFevre. We finally get the conclusion of the Victoria plot line in this movie and our hosts discuss how the vamp…

Where the hell have you BEEN, loca? Welcome back for the second movie in the Twilight Saga. We talk all about New Moon. It's not often that you can witness a movie that is almost entirely table setting for something bigger while also having almost no plot of its own. Either way, grab your recently restored dirt bike, head off to the cliffs by La Pu…

This is the skin of a podcaster, Bella! If I tell you that during the recording of Twilight Summer, all of my social media feed turned into memes about this franchise, would you believe me? Regardless of the quality of the filmography (mid), to the acting choices (so so bad), to the decisions to make so much of this seem like a weirdo metaphor for …

Folks. I am so absolutely stoked to have you here at the start of my journey into the Twilight Saga. This episode is a preview episode where you'll meet our hosts, Billie (you know her), Josh from the Super Scary Podcast, and Danae who is a friend of the pod (and friend in real life). We chop it up about our experience with Twilight. Talk about som…

This movie asks the question, "Wait. Is relying on technology to do most of the things for you, a bad thing?" We're talking about M3GAN this week, after Alex heard me rave about it back during its theatrical run in 2023. Join us as we dip into the Psychology Corner, chat about artificial intelligence, and even touch on something called the Green Li…

Listen to the Twilight Summer Series right here on Nothing to Fear's feed! We're back to a weekly release schedule for the Summer and Alex and Luke are no where to be found! Billie teams up with Josh from The Super Scary Podcast, and Danae, friend of the pod (and friend in real life), to talk about the sparkliest vampires in the Pacific Northwest. …

Happy 4 years of Nothing to Fear! This movie has been waiting for us to tackle it since we started the podcast, and I have to wonder, did we leave it too long? Despite some of this movie's drawbacks, it is undeniably a seminal text for the found footage movie genre, and a master class in how movies were marketed during the infant stages of the inte…

The trio tackles a "zombie" movie from the turn of this Century. Let's all head to 2002 UK for 28 Days Later, a movie starring Cillian Murphy as he tries to survive in a virus-ridden London, beset by enraged infected people. This is not about Sandra Bullock going to rehab, nor is it in the same universe, and honestly. We have been robbed of that po…

Turns out the title hints to the games being a lot less funny than we thought. Love a good media consumption metaphor from the 90s!

Enjoy the second instalment of the Creep Cinematic Universe! We talk the film, Mark and Jay Duplass, the Las Vegas Sphere, and so much more. Thanks for not unsubscribing to the feed so these episodes show up once in a while!

Happy February, dear listeners. Please enjoy our latest outing with Creep, a 2014 found-footage movie that is equal parts funny and unsettling. Grab your Peachfuzz masks, and meet us by the heart shaped pool!

Welcome to 2024 and a new year for Nothing to Fear! We're going to start the year off by putting out the rest of the only episode we recorded in the last two months (BUSY) and wrap up our chat on the Insidious Franchise! Enjoy all our thoughts on arguably one of the 21st Centuries most notable horror properties with Insidious: The Red Door. Thanks …

More Like Insidious: The Last Episode of 2023. We wanted to give all you good little listeners out in podcast land a treat for Christmas with one last episode of the show. We sat down to talk about the remaining films in the Insidious franchise (at the time of recording) and for December's episode we present Insidious: The Last Key. Thanks so much …

On Episode 247 I sit down with Meredith Rickel. Meredith is a friend of mine from CrossFit Roots and someone who I really enjoyed talking to. I had a fascinating conversation with Meredith today that ranged from talking about SEC Football to what happiness means to her, all the way to the climate and what's going wrong, what she thinks we can do ab…

Thanks for waiting for us while we took a little summer (and fall) hiatus. We're back with a monthly release schedule for the time being and we kicked things off with the 2023 summer smash hit, Talk to Me! Australian horror is here to stay and the folks behind this tense and spooky flick are sure to go places if they keep churning out this kind of …

AND What a new beginning it is for us over here at Nothing to Fear. We bust back from summer hiatus like a Jason Voorhees who was buried in a far too shallow grave. And wouldn't you know it, we have a guest filling in for Luke on this episode. We are joined by none other than a Day One fan of Nothing to Fear and now real life friend, Danae! So ther…

This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! Luke picked the episode for the fear of snakes (ophidiophobia) and he chose The Taking of Deborah Logan specifically so no one could choose Anaconda. Come along as we talk about the surprising punch to the gut that is the first half of the movie and *THAT* scene from the movie right as…

On Episode 239 I sit down with Billy Edwards. Billy is a friend of mine from CrossFit Roots and someone who I always enjoy talking to when he walks through the door to work out.

I have been a writer my entire life. It was something that I enjoyed as far back as I can remember in elementary school and it has stayed with me to this day. Recently, I was nudged by a friend(or a whole bunch of friends) to get on substack and start publishing my writing for the world to read. I'm a storyteller through and through. From my podcas…

This episode contains spoilers for the movie we are discussing! This week we take a surprising departure from being a horror movie podcast and transition into a regular movie podcast with this 2 hour selection from our boy Alex Wan. 1995 was a wild time, the internet was new, Holly Hunter had the bluntest bangs decades before Zooey Deschanel, and p…

On Episode 237 I sit down with Amy Jo Dimeglio. Amy Jo is a friend of mine from CrossFit Roots and someone who I think is absolutely hilarious. Amy Jo is from New Jersey and after high school, she jumped right into the workforce and ended up working for a small family-owned supermarket in the seafood department for 17 years. After realizing that th…
