Kim and Ket Stay Alive... Maybe

DREAD Podcast Networkart19.com
A Horror Movie/Comedy Podcast... with a twist! What do you get when two best friends, and horror movie fans, convince themselves that they would definitely be the Final Girls at the end of the movie and never the ones “running up the stairs when they should be going out the front door?" You get Kim and Ket Stay Alive... Maybe (KKSAM for short). Each week, Kim Burns and Ketryn Porter take turns spoiling the fuck out of a horror movie one of them hasn't seen. Through very scientific (not scientific), totally indisputable (very disputable) methods — and amidst ridiculous tangents about their personal lives, childhood fears and wild college days — they play a game to determine whether they would #StayAlive at the end. Come play with us!
