Melvin & Daniel talk about the animated modern cult-classic Over the Garden Wall, a story about two brothers who get lost in the woods.

Topics: 

• Daniel not only looked forward to discussing Over the Garden Wall, he remembers eagerly watching the show when it initially aired.
• Also, Daniel recently had a watch party with some friends! Their post-show discussion was about Elijah Wood, and how one of Daniel's friends met Elijah Wood for a strange Wilfred-themed photo exchange.
• Creator Patrick McHale brings a clever melancholy to Over the Garden Wall, somewhat similar to his work on Adventure Time.
• Is Over the Garden Wall scary? Mostly in a folk-horror, mystical sense.
• Kids and Teens may not have the words to explain why they connect with certain fears presented in Over the Garden Wall, but a lot of what is covered through it's various episodes will likely resonate with them.
• Sharing our interpretations of The Beast, The Unknown, Fear, and so much more.
• The music, the comedy, everything about Over the Garden Wall still feels fresh and original.
• After the Recommendations, stick around for a short discussion on that Netflix slasher flick "There's Someone Inside Your House"

Recommendations:

• Moises Silva's "Philippians, Second Edition: Baker Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament"
• The Blackcoat's Daughter (Movie)
• Watch "There's Someone Inside Your House" and then tweet Dan (twitter below) if you think it's a good movie or not.
