It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for — we discuss the fabled [Castle Freak](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112643/?ref_=nv_sr_1?ref_=nv_sr_1). And we don’t do it alone! We do it with noted B-movie aficionado Joe Bob Briggs who you can also see on [Shudder’s “The Last Drive-In.”](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjdooOF9crhAhUOvlkKHb64ApkQFjAAegQIBRAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.shudder.com%2Fseries%2Fwatch%2Fthe-last-drive-in-with-joe-bob-briggs%2F4285429&usg=AOvVaw1_rWDeI7-4n27VcjJUPhyK) Meanwhile, Dan asks salient questions about Grimace’s anatomy, Elliott denies all of Dan’s best bits, and Stuart fulfills his destiny.
