We're thrilled to have the incredible musician, podcaster, and skeptic George Hrab back on the show to talk about his upcoming Christmas album "Stocking Stuffer" as well as a grab bag of topics as diverse and interesting as George himself. Leighton's out sick for this one so it's just George and Brian, but hoo boy do they get into it. Lots of music talk in this one, folks. LOTS of it. Get George's albums at georgehrab.bandcamp.com, and his new one drops on Thanksgiving. Follow us on Twitter at @leightonnight and on Instagram/TikTok at @leighton_night.

On this lovely ep, we're joined by comedian, actress, and scientist Ria Lina (@rialina_) for a chat about cultural differences (especially mayo ones) between the US and the UK, the scientist/comedian overlap, virology, theoretical physics, and more!

Happy Halloween! We're putting this episode out a day earlier than usual so you can watch Tobe Hooper's 1982 classic Poltergeist with us and our favorite Good Boy, Jory Griffis (@jorygriffis). When you get back from trick-or-treating, empty out that pumpkin full of candy and slowly devour each and every piece as you watch the movie with us. It'll be a SCARY GOOD time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The prodigal (podrigal?) son returns: Jory (@jorygriffis) is back for a wonderful and very Halloweeny episode! We talk about our experiences at Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood, childhood Halloween costumes, best and worst candies, a couple of scary/not scary at all movies, and more! It's a lot of fun-- and as a special treat, next week's episode drops a day early on the 31st and will be a full length commentary of the movie Poltergeist with Jory! Normally we only do those for Patrons, but it's the HOLIDAY SEASON, BABY! See you next week with more Jory goodness. Check out our Patreon and support the show at patreon.com/leightonnight!

Wowza! It's another stunning solo episode, where Brian and Leighton discuss the kinds of hard-hitting topics listeners have come to expect: bogus NYT Connections categories, best and worst Halloween candies, the Hatman, the finger, and just how young can you show scary movies to children?
