Episode 11: Conquest

“When a man meets a man, you never know which one will die. But when an animal meets a man, it's always the animal that dies. I'm on the animals' side.”This week, it’s all about Lucio Fulci and his sword-and-sorcery epic, Conquest. Before diving into the movie, Jesse and Josh talk about how Obsession fever is sweeping the nation, share their thoughts and feelings on The Mandalorian and Grogu, and mention some recent physical media announcements that have caught their eye.Want to ask us a question or send us your comments to be read on air?
