Lizzie and Sam are a bunch of stupid lambs in the world of Twilight. Pull your old 550 page tome of a novel off the shelf, dust off your Hot Topic tees, and sharpen your black eyeliner pencils. We unearth just enough subtext to warrant the name of the podcast and have some serious giggle fits.

Sam & Lizzie & special guest Brodie turn a nightmare into a dream with a horror classic that is so much gayer than you could even realize. Freddy's Revenge may just be a bunch of queer easter eggs in the production design, the worst pool party, like, ever and one scary canary.
