The boys are back after the holiday week with an absolute banger of an episode. This week, the boys are taking it all the way back to 1986 to examine the horror film Dolls. Our best friend, Gabe is showing his bravery and telling the story and sharing the trauma that the movie Dolls brought upon his childhood.

So grab the your favorite doll and get ready for a ripping good time. Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, & TikTok: @WhoLetYouPod Subscribe to our YouTube channel to watch us talk: @WhoLetYouWatchThat
