Welcome to the podcast

The Savage Beast podcast is hosted by comic artist Dan White (aka The Beast Must Die) and musician Mat Colegate (aka Lord Nuneaton Savage).

Each themed episode looks at cult films, B-movies, beloved genre favourites and weird, outlier cinema, and considers the visceral pleasures of them through a critical, aesthetic lens.

Expect deep, but fresh dives, offbeat tangents and an appreciation of the absurd.
