Your hosts Bryan, Matt, Joel and Ryan have a lot of work to do this week!  They have to wrap up and rank everything about the Friday the 13th franchise!  They rank the movies, the Jasons, the kills and so much more!  This whole series has been so much fun and the wrap-up is a very fond farewell to the franchise.  Be sure to tune in next week when we start talking Robocop in Automatic Pig!

Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Fence Post" Dykes, Joel "Tree Trimming Saw" Dewitte, and Ryan "Uber Machete" Lootens take on the most recent Friday the 13th film, the remake from 2009.  While this movie may have some "stupendous" moments here and there, it largely leaves the binge buddies rather disappointed.  But they have a blast taking it apart! 

We are back with our first regular format episode of the year! Dylan was assigned the year 1982 and he selected The Waitresses full length debut, Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful? This album features the hit song "I Know What Boys Like", and pre-dates their famous Christmas song.

Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie-Dog Sleeping Bag" Dykes, Joel "Sleeping Bags" Dewitte, and Ryan "Corkscrew" Lootens bring you the Christmas episode to end all Christmas episodes!  One where we mostly forgot to talk about Christmas at all!  But we do talk a lot about all the death and mayhem caused by two of the greatest slashers of all time going head to head!  This movie is far from flawless, but joy can be found in all the flaws, making this one hell of a good time!  Enjoy your break from the holiday and our last episode of 2023!  Taking a little break for the holidays and we will be back in January!

Your hosts Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog His Bare Hands" Dykes, Joel "Ice Pick" Dewitte, and Ryan "Axe" Lootens tackle the hard questions this week.

Masterpiece or Train Wreck?

A love letter to the franchise or a middle finger to the legacy?

Is this an intentional comedy or an accidental tragedy?

Do the Binge Buddies actually get to the answers on any of these questions?  Not really, but they have a ton of fun trying!!

Join your hosts Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog - Joachim Kroll" Dykes, Joel "Guiles De Reyes" Dewitte, and Ryan "Lady Blue Bird" Lootens as they take on one of the oddest Jason movies out there.  This movie has it all!  Weird demon slugs that must be puked into people's mouths? Yup!  Breaking fingers for payment? Yup! And everyone's favorite, excessive violence!  Jason Goes to Hell is no one's favorite Jaons movie (for the most part) but the Binge Buddies have a blast breaking it down!

Your hosts Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog-Andre Chicatilo" Dykes, Joel "Arthur Shawcross" Dewitte, and  Ryan "David Berkowitz" Lootens do their absolute best to find the good stuff in this slog of an underfunded sequel.  Yes this movie was amazing on paper, but due to budget and time it got stripped down into a frustratingly bland slasher.  Not to worry, it does still have a few moments to shine and the Buddies have a great time breaking it all down!

Hosts Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog - Jeffery Dahmer" Dykes, Joel "Aline Wurnoros" Dewitte, and Ryan "Harold Shipman" Lootens cover one of if not the best Friday the 13th movies, The New Blood.  Characters have development, the gore was next level (before the MPAA Ruined it) and it has the best-designed Jason by far.  This movie is an absolute blast and the buddies loved talking about it!

Over three days in the fall of 1982, seven healthy people in the Chicago area died suddenly. At first, medical examiners were baffled but soon realized all the victims had taken Extra-Strength Tylenol capsules. Public trust in the medication vanished overnight. Johnson & Johnson, the makers of Tylenol, had to act fast if they wanted to save lives and their product.

This season we’ve been sharing stories about companies and organizations that made mistakes and lost public trust. In this episode, we’re looking at a company that did nothing wrong but had to find a way through a crisis to rebuild trust. 

Veteran Chicago news reporter Phil Rogers recalls how the Tylenol Murders terrified the nation and how Johnson & Johnson managed the crisis. OneTrust’s Chief Trust Architect, Andrew Clearwater, examines how Johnson & Johnson defied the odds and actually strengthened trust in their brand.

Your hosts Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog Dennis Rader" Dykes, Joel "Albert Fish" Dewitte, and Ryan "Carl Panzram" Lootens take a dive into one of the goofiest and all-around best Friday the 13th films.  Its as much fun to talk about as it is to watch and the buddies have a blast!

Join Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog - unknown" Dykes, Ryan "Unknown" Lootens, and Joel "Pedro Lopez" Dewitte as they dive into the questionable decisions of Friday the 13th part 5!  Jason's out and a new lumbering murderer is picking up the slack!   The Binge Buddies have a hell of a time trying to find the good parts in this one, but they have a blast on the journey!

Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie Dog - Myra Hindly " Dykes, Joel "Fred West " Dewitte, Ryan "Ian Brady" Lootens have a blast with this horror classic.  Some of the best kills, best Jason, best special effects, all around just an amazing horror flick!  While the attempt at ending the franchise was a fool's errand, the making of an all-around fantastic movie was not!

Bryan Dressel, Matt "Zombie-Dog Richard Ramirez" Dykes, Joel "Ted Bundy" Dewitte, and Ryan "Gary Ridgeway" Lootens as they take on part 3 of the Friday the 13th series.  This one is a doozy folks.  The stuff that works, works incredibly well, then we get the rest.   There are some questionable characters, bad edits, and so much stuff being pointed at the screen you can't help but laugh.  The movie might be lame, but the Binge Buddies have an absolute blast tearing it down!

This time, it’s 1982, and love and hockey are in the air as Brother Bear gets stalked by a secret admirer, and his Papa’s public displays of affection send him into orbit.
