It’s been a little while since we’ve done a scary story, so I figure we’ll start with a horror comedy. Make it a little easier for the horror curious who are still a little squeamish.

Civilized is a first for me as a reviewer: it’s an improvisational podcast. Meaning the actors are just playing off each other. And as such, I can’t really judge it on its plot progression.
