A Nightmare on Elm Street

AKOP-nightmare

One, Two, Shawn and Earl are coming for you. Was that lame? Ok let me try this: Five, Six, Shawn and Earl grabbed their crucifix? No? Forget it.

It’s another great Halloween episode and this week it’s a special one for Shawn: On November 9th, 1984, A Nightmare on Elm Street was released to theaters and on October 11, 2014, Earl and Shawn celebrated the 30th anniversary by seeing it on the big screen. Today we talk all things Freddy, except the beginning where we talk Apple? Whatever. This episode is a celebration for one of Shawn’s favorite things and Earl is strapped in for the ride. So sit back and relax as we get into some heavy Freddy talk and remember:

WHATEVER YOU DO… DON’T FALL SLEEP… on a subway because someone may steal your nice headphones and you paid like what, $100 bucks for those.
