ep.45 | Queen of the Damned
The podcastronauts get together in person to discuss 2002's Queen of the Damned! The energy in the room is off the (wallet) chain in this one as we discuss Lestat's violin aptitude, Anne Rice's extreme dislike for any media she didn't create, dancing at goth clubs, Nu Metal, the herculean effort of cramming two books worth of plot into a 2 hour movie, and what kind of vampires we want to be.
Also, a significant but not uncalled for amount of admiration for the late, great Aaliyah.
Thank you to the Irondequoit Public Library for being an amazing home away from home.
