Summary
For episode 293, I’m joined once again by my co-host Myles Hughes, with producer Steve Prusakowski working behind the scenes on Emmy season content and, of course, TV Topics. This episode, we get into the box office and cultural phenomenon that is Backrooms and Obsession . I wrote a bit about it here in the most recent Sunday Scaries column, while my Obsession review is here . Myles has seen both, while I'm about to catch up with Backrooms , so there's variety in our chat. I've also caught up on The Sheep Detectives , which I loved, and tell Myles all about Masters of the Universe (reviewed here ). Throw in some questions and it's a tight little episode... As always my friends and faithful listeners/readers, I do hope you all enjoy the latest episode of the Awards Radar Podcast, our 293rd one to date (here’s to many more). Of course, feel free to revisit the previous installments by clicking the Podcast tab ( here ) on the top of the page. Plus, listen to us on Apple Podcasts (iTunes), Spotify, and other platforms. More to come each and every single week, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you for listening!
