Hello, Welcome to the ramblings of me, Dansmonsters. I was originally going to call this Dan Rambles, and posted on my now defunct Patreon as that.  Anyway, I have decided to bin that off, along with Patreon and just re upload on my own podcast! So, some of you may have heard this before, apologies!

So, I'm going to explain my love of Evil Dead......
