Ep 29. The Swimmer

A mystery box of VHS tapes

For this episode we wax nostalgic about: a long lost Pittsburgh video store, mid-century upper middle class anxieties, an old dog we used to have, and why being Gen X meant taking solace in anything that confirmed your impressions that the world is horribly wrong. Based on the John Cheever story, The Swimmer is not exactly a horror movie, except that it kind of is.
