A Conversation with Kay Lynch (Salem Horror Fest)

<p>This week Mike is joined by Kay Lynch. She&#39;s the founder and program director of the Salem Horror Festival which is returning this April for two weekends in lovely, scenic Salem Massachusetts. Kay is on hand to talk about why the festival took a year off in 2022 and all the ways it plans on returning in bigger and better fashion this spring. We talk about the lineup and events as well as why it is so important for the festival to be a safe haven for queer persons, women, and trans artists. For listeners that wonder why we&#39;re talking about an event that 99% of you won&#39;t be able to travel to, have no fear, we do talk about the virtual component to the festival which will be announced shortly.

Sibling Rivalry / Basket Case (1982) with Nichole Goble

<p>This week Mike is joined once again by Nichole Goble of the Bodies of Horror podcast to discuss the 1982 exploitation and cult classic Basket Case directed by Frank Hennenlotter. This movie is a look at the sleazy underbelly of early '80s New York City and a piece of classic Gore in Camp. It’s also a deeply empathetic movie about how we look at those that are different from ourselves. We talk about how the beauty in this movie lies in how it treats its subjects in a very humane way whereas others would disregard them as freaks. We talk about the strong bond and stronger tension between twins and talk about the stress that comes with being the person who needs the care and support of a caregiver. We discuss the unique stressors that come with that Dynamic and how it can often lead to tense battles between siblings. We keep it loose and we keep it real and we hope you enjoy this episode.</p> <p>Follow us on social media:</p> <p>Twitter:<a href="https://twitter.com/PsychoAPod"> <u>@PsychoAPod</u></a></p> <p>Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/psychoapod/?hl=en"> <u>The Psychoanalysis podcast</u></a></p> <p>Facebook:<a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/884209288752144"> <u>Psychoanalysis Podcast Support group</u></a></p> <p>If you really like the show, and want more of us, join our patreon for bonus shows and more content.<a href="http://patreon.com/psychoanalysispodcast"> <u>Psychoanalysis Patreon Page</u></a></p>
