## Resource

The Brendans are delighted to once again welcome Trey Lawson to the podcast to talk mummies, mummies, and more mummies! We chat Karl Freund's 1932 original, the 1999 Stephen Sommers bisexually-awakening remake, the most recent effort from Evil Dead: Rise director Lee Cronin, and a few other incarnations worth a look. There's also Big Talk on Little Podcast with the continuing Carpenter Chronicles, discussion of James Cameron's Aliens in 4K, the merits of Primal Season 3, Marian's first Nolan joint, and more. Our Opening Music is from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): "Skies of Hope" by RA https://uppbeat.io/t/ra/skies-of-hope Weekly Recs: Trey's recommendation of Coriolanus is on Tubi. Foley's recommendation of Richard III is also on Tubi. Agnew's recommendation of "Love and Gold" is on YouTube, and Livescream is on Tubi, as is the sequel, Livescreamers . You can catch Trey on ⁠Blue Sky⁠ and check out his podcast (and some dope writing) on ⁠Cinepunx⁠ . You can (and should) follow Foley on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and/or read his work on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cinapse⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , and you can follow Agnew on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ , writing at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cinapse⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ occasionally, and wherever you can bloody well find him.
