Progressively Horrified

by Jeremy Whitley

A podcast that holds horror to standards horror never agreed to. Hosts Jeremy Whitley, Ben Kahn, Emily Martin and guests watch, read, listen to, and check out movies, tv shows, comics, books, art and anything else from the horror genre and discuss it through a progressive lens. We'll talk feminism in horror, LGBTQ+ issues and representation in horror, racial and social justice in horror, disability and mental health/illness in horror, and the work of female and POC directors, writers, and creators in horror. We're the podcast horror never agreed to take part in. Check out our Letterboxd list of all our reviews here: https://letterboxd.com/jerwhit/list/progressively-horrified/ Hosted on Acast.
