Episode Description:
In this spirited episode of Zombie Book Club, Dan and Leah explore the intersection of humor, horror, and humanity. They share life updates, from awkward bed mishaps on their anniversary trip to indulging in nostalgic Canadian treats like Nanaimo bars and Pizza Pizza. The duo tackles tough topics like the misuse of sexual assault as a plot device in media, sparked by their recent viewing of It Stains the Sands Red. Their thoughtful discussion touches on representation, the male gaze, and the role of trauma in storytelling.
To lighten the mood, they share groans from the hoard and gear up for January's guest appearances by authors Z. Martin Brown and Sylvester Barzey. As always, they mix sharp critique with playful banter, making this episode both challenging and entertaining.
