I'm late to the party coming back to this season after listening to the current ones but I loved this episode so much! Please please let's have Jonny back for more Enthusigasm
Nicole
So I watched the perfection yesterday, and yeah, it was insane
Kath
This episode was so interesting. I had like a moment when I was fairly into horror films and kinda burnt out on them and wandered away, and it was cool to get perspectives that echoed I think some of the reasons I burned out on it and gave me things to look for when I want to wander back.

I’m really loving this series. I could listen to so many more hours of each!
Autumn Brooks
Great episode, I would love to listen to more of this stuff! Y’all are both funny and insightful, which is great to listen to! And, Fyi, I would absolutely be here for a 20 minute conversation about Hannibal. Like, I’d be here for a 2 hr conversation about Hannibal, tbh.

This was fantastic! Finally listened last night while in the grips of insomnia and it really was enjoyable. I can listen to Alisdair and Jonny discuss deeply the psychology of horror Every. Single. Day. ❤️
CrazyChopstick
What a great episode! Super interesting to listen to even considering that i'm not really invested in the horror genre 💖
GugTheGoose
You had a lovely turn of phrase in that description!
Terri
I've absolutely loved the eps of Enthusigasm so far. They're such a brilliantly warm way to end the week given how heavy some of RQ's shows can get during the week. Helen's enthusiasm and the kind and thoughtful discussions between the guests is as water to the weary desert traveler after a long week.
Nicole Stevenson
Was so excited for this ep and it really delivered!! loved it
Lurkin
Honestly, I'm so grateful that Magnus Archives introduced me to the horror genre over the past four years. Twas a gateway work of fiction and it's been such a great journey.

Oh I love Enthusigasm so much, it's the best thing to have in the background while drawing and it always keeps a smile in my face <3!

Fantastic! Loved this.

Not to be mean or anything, but I was waiting for them to talk about The Exorcist and it was never even mentioned.

Old Gods of Appalachia is super good. The first horror podcast i listened to thats still one of my favorites is Archive 81, especially the golden age, season 3, and left of the dial.
The Magnus Archives Was A Comedy
Another great episode! I'm just starting to dip my toes into horror so I got some real good recs here 😁
Wendy Reed
Cosign on Old Gods of Appalachia. There's an episode in S1 that has an acappella version of Are You Washed in the Blood of the Lamb mixed with a revival tent preacher that is one of the most intensely creepy things I've ever heard. And as a person who grew up in the South (Texas) so much of it hits home. Thanks for another delightful episode
Phoenix
What an excellent episode! When Jonny said he loves House of Leaves cause he’s that prick, I nearly spit out my coffee. I love that book too, but it’s true 😂
Ashley Sowers
T H A N K Y O U for that reference to Jeremy Brett. I hardly hear anyone reference him when discussing Holmes.
nero
this is so excellent i love this more than anything
Gilligan Mungus
This was incredible! I love horror everything and this was a complete treat. Thank you all and thank you Rusty Quill and Helen for this show. 💜💜💜
Mai
gosh I could listen to ten hours of this!

*vibrates in I just want to write some really good space horror* I live part of the year in a place where, if you walk outside at night, the expanse of stars is so wide and crushing and open that it almost seems to contradict the very real rocks under your feet, and I've dipped into the feeling of that a few different times, but I feel like at some point I should really just give it a solid go...
Laure Gagnon-Tremblay
This show is amazing. Really one of my favorite!
ThirdFromTheLeft
Best episode yet! I love this. I laughed so much but I also loved the really, really interesting discussion and perspectives that everyone brought. I have the biggest smile on my face. I really needed that. Thanks guys. Also lol. everyone in hannibal is magic is not the take i expected but it's the one i needed. xD This show is so enjoyable bc it's really good fun but it also digs into the topics in very interesting ways. The dynamic in this one was SO great. thanks guys.

I’m listening to this while decorating my bloody Halloween cake and feeling very thematically appropriate!
sAZAndorable
That was lovely!
Eli
To be fair I would buy that t shirt
Kit
One of my favorite Hannibal memes is just a post pointing out that all the characters talk like very stoned vampires, loved hearing yall goof on it.
Linda Evans
Mark Kermode is Manx? Thank the gods I can now stop trying to work out his accent.
Jess McIvor
Love these! Brightening up my Friday walk back from the office, exactly what I need! ❤️
