by Jay Cluitt · March 8, 2018 · Featured, LAMBcast, MOTM, MOTM Champions, Podcasts · No Comments

It’s a podcast, what harm even came from listening to a podcast?

It’s Mother Day’s in the UK this Sunday, and today is International Woman’s Day, so what better time to discuss 1999’s The Mummy? Jay was joined by Audrey Fox, Kristen Lopez, Zoe Rose Smith and Richard Kirkham to talk about the Stephen Sommers’ action-horror reboot in all it’s tomb-raiding, flesh-eating, fez-wearing glory.

Also on tap: Rants and Raves of the Week and a round of Last Lamb Standing.
