Scare Tactics

Published: Aug. 25, 2019, 8:06 p.m.

Are you scared? Could you at least pretend to be? No? Excellent. You’re a perfect fit for Scare Tactics, a show that’s on Axel’s list of guilty pleasures, but Dave is feeling much more skeptical about. (And guess who’s writing this episode description?)

Journey with us through two episodes and eight pranks where the victims seem more confused than anything else. Except for poor Darian in that last prank. Even Dave has a soft spot for Darian.

Not helping at all is Tracy Morgan, who is clearly telegraphing that he thinks his lines are terrible and also clearly only in it for the paycheck. But fear not! Axel and Dave come up with a sure-fire way to fix this show. Actually, maybe fear a little bit, because it does involve uniting Werner Herzog with a diseased WWF wrestler.

We're suffering through and reporting back on two episodes of Scare Tactics, available to stream on Nextflix.

Also, it’s our 50th episode! To help us celebrate, please rate or review our show wherever you get your podcasts!
