A scarily scrumptious taste of our next episode!

For this bonus episode, Allie and Vanessa are guests of the Comfortably Hungry podcast hosted by Sam Bilton. Roald Dahl’s second children’s book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory celebrates its 60th birthday this year and together they dig into the wicked side of chocolate and how this is represented in Dahl’s book and its movie adaptations. With chocolate as their guide, Sam, Vanessa and Allie dissect the nuances of Dahl's narrative and its various cinematic adaptations. From Gene Wilder's iconic portrayal to Tim Burton's fantastical reimagination, discover how each rendition captures the essence of Dahl's mischievous use of food.

Being a teenager is hard enough, between smartphones, social media pressure, and that damn witch that haunts your hometown. And then when your bestie's mom is the town butcher and keeps selling her creepy pâté, and she worships the witch, it makes it so much worse. We're talking growing pains, technology, witchcraft, pea soup with meatballs, breasts, mob mentality, that awful pâté, Chinese take-out food and family meals, and more breasts, so join us as we analyze the connection between food and horror in Thomas Olde Heuvelt's bizarrely creepy novel HEX. You may never look at pâté quite the same way ever again.
