Necrocasticon

Welcome to Volume 666 Chapter 35 of the Necrocasticon, where we blend horror and heavy metal for your pleasure and ours. It’s our sith annual Star Wars Holiday Special! And we’re overloaded with Mando. In the first half, we talk about season 2 of The Mandalorian, in its entirety. In the second half, we talk to Don Mando himself, Armand Rosamilia. Armand has a new short story collection out and he joins us to talk about it. This month, the Necrocasticon asks that you, our listeners, donate to Dave Thomas’s Go Fund Me. He’s gotten the crap end of the stick this year with cancer and every penny you donate puts food in his mouth or contributes to paying a bill. Dave doesn’t deserve the hell he’s going through, so let’s try and take some of the stress away by donating to his go fund me. You can find a link pinned to our Necrocasticon Facebook page.
