once again we're going to be entering the ENnie awards this year. We've applied previously, but have never made even the shortlist. To apply, we have to select a 15-minute segment of one of our podcasts, released after May 1st 2019 (episode 156 onwards), and send it to the ENnie judges. This is where we'd like your help. If you can nominate a favourite segment, pleas...

In many respects, the 2010s were a terrible decade. We’ve seen political upheavals that will affect the world for generations, an ecological crisis that will affect it for even longer, and, worst of all, David Bowie died. It’s all been a bit shit, really.
But there has been some good stuff too. The 2010s were a boom time for media in general, and horror in particular. We have been liv...
