TorTR #425 - Captain Rent-A-Pal

A lonely bachelor seeks an escape from the day-to-day drudgery of life, and discovers The Blackout Tapes. Hosted by the charming and charismatic Ravenshadow, the chat offers him much-needed company, debauchery, and friendship. But, Ravenshadow’s friendship comes at a cost most won’t be able to afford. On Episode 425 of Trick or Treat Radio we kick things off with a chat with old friend Professor Jay as he runs down the list of events for the upcoming Charlotte Film Festival. Then we take a trip back to the VHS era to discuss Rent-A-Pal, the feature film debut from director Jon Stevenson, starring Wil Wheaton! We have exciting announcements, nostalgia, and some coherent discussion about toxic masculinity and the declining health of loved ones! So grab your favorite VHS tape, eat a plate of lasagna with no pants, and strap on for the world's most dangerous podcast!
