Haus of Torrance (w/ Rebecca Ballinger!)

On this, the VERY special VERY first VERY episode of The GAG, Rebecca Ballinger stops by to discuss why THE SHINING (1980) made us very anxious but also a little bit gayer. I also dismiss Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick right away so I can stan Shelley Duvall and Scatman Crothers. And hedge mazes. I love hedge mazes.

CW: This episode contains discussions of real-world and fictional violence, mental health, and abuse. It also spoils The Shining, and contains mild spoilers for PIECES (Juan Piquer Simon, 1982). Watch Pieces anyways though. I implore you.
