Summary

Our family's always been in meat. Join us and our pal Brad Bannon for a conversation about The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Whether you're an avid fan or a person who will never see this movie, we assure this episode is for you!

You can find Brad on Twitter here.

We made a playlist to accompany this episode! It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie.

You Are Good is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens.

You can find us on TwitterInstagram and Patreon.

You can find producer and music director Carolyn Kendrick's music here. She's also on Twitter.

Fresh Lesh produces the beats for our episodes.

Abigail Swartz of Gray Day Studio designed our logo!

Hey there, it's Alex Deed. You're, you are a good co-host. We're going to get into the rest of the episode in a second.

This conversation still works, I think. Of course, I'm a little biased, but I just want you to know that. A couple other things.

youths. In particular, Sally Hardesty and her invalid brother, Franklin. It is all the more

tragic in that they were young. But had they lived very, very long lives, they could not have expected, nor would they have wished to see as much of the mad and macab as they were to see that day.
