410 - Geek Challenge: Puppet Master vs. Seed of Chucky

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">They’ll tear you a new puppet hole, bitch! The worlds of Charles Band and Don Mancini collide in a pre-Gobbledyween</span> <strong>Geek Challenge</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Paul sends Arlo a psychic alert letting him know to watch 1989’s</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Puppet Master</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">, the first of producer Band’s direct-to-VHS Full Moon Features and the source of approximately one trillion sequels. In turn, Arlo goes meta and has a doll voiced by him call Paul while the real Arlo is tied to a bed behind him, commanding Paul to watch 2004’s</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Seed of Chucky</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">. Paul recounts the joy of watching Full Moon Features in his 20s, Arlo launches a full-throated defense of Mancini’s vision, and they are both just completely miserable. Plus, the boys have nothing but nice things to say about Taylor Swift’s</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Folklore</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Next: we’re off, then we’re not.</span></p> <p><br /> <br /></p> <p><strong>THE BREAKDOWN</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Total Run Time: 01:49:34</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">00:00:25  -  Intro / Banter</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">00:16:56  - </span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Puppet Master</span></em></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">01:03:15  - </span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Seed of Chucky</span></em></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">01:45:00  -  Outro / Next</span></li> </ul> <p><br /> <br /></p> <p><strong>THE MUSIC</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">“Master of Puppets” by Metallica,</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Master
