Grab your tiara and get cozy with Troy and Roger as they dive into 1991’s super obscure flick Beauty Queen Butcher, a campy mess that somehow manages to be endearing and tackle serious issues like body image and beauty standards. The guys discuss the film’s many flaws, from its agonizingly slow beauty pageant scene to its awkward character arcs — especially protagonist Phyllis’s transformation from outcast to vengeful killer. They also touch on the film’s dark humor, its surprisingly low body count, and the strange lack of violence. But let’s be real: this episode is all about Betty Prunish, a character that needs more recognition for being the icon that she is! Beauty Queen Butcher may be offensive, absurd, and a little nostalgic, but one thing’s for sure — it certainly leaves an impression!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! Grab your bags because Troy and Roger are about the film them with lots of treats and they bite into the now required October viewing, 2007's Trick 'r Treat! Join the guys as they discuss all the things that make this a Halloween classic, including the iconic villain that is Sam!

Grab your scorebook and prepare for a wild ride as Troy and Roger dive into one of cinema's most unexpected sequels: Katt Shae’s totally ’90s gem, The Rage: Carrie 2. Join the guys as they navigate the intricacies of a mother-daughter relationship that’s about as developed as a high school group project, tackle the ultra-realistic world of high school slut-shaming, and raise an eyebrow at the disturbingly chill security at Antrum Mental Institution—seriously, do they even have a security guard?! Oh, and let’s not forget the shoehorned-in Sue Snell—because every sequel needs a cameo from the past, right?
