Misery chicks, this is your time to shine

Episode Description

Before writer, producer, and director Roxanne Benjamin was making V/H/S shorts or directing shows like Nancy Drew and The New Adventures of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, she was a disaffected youth who was so recognizable as a Daria that classmates called her by the famous MTV character's name. Now, she joins us fresh off the streaming release of her new movie, There's Something Wrong With the Children, to talk about relating to Daria, finding a place in the world of horror and filmmaking in general, and some other stuff '80s/'90s kids love.
