Jen and Tim suffer through the half-baked hippie whimsy of the Beatles' first major creative cock-up, Magical Mystery Tour.If you're curious, you can watch the Pet Shop Boys' head-scratcher of a longform music video, It Couldn't Happen Here, at the Internet Archive.

Jen and Tim do a deep dive into the canned pumpkin pie filling that is Shudder's Ghoul Log! Are we serious with this shit? You tell us! However, all of the usual outlets appear to trick-or-treat it with the same gravitas afforded to, say, the latest Terrifier installment. To wit:Comicbook.com anticipates the Night of the Ghoul Log:"While some fans might be disappointed that this year hasn't embraced a specific horror property, it still marks a great way to capture the atmosphere of Halloween night."
