This week, hosts Scott Kemper (aka Richard Gerlach), Matt Brandenburg, and author Michael Patrick Hicks discuss the Netflix movie Da 5 Bloods, the crime noir novel Blacktop Wasteland by S.A. Cosby, Death Head Press's second splatter-western book Hunger on the Chisholm Trail by M. Ennenbach, and Stephen Graham Jones's latest horror novel, The Only Good Indians. Then, we take a deep, spoiler-filled dive into Kathe Koja's recently re-issued polarizing classic, The Cipher!
