Bonus - Choice Dregs Sampler

Since the Creative Horror Crew were on vacation recently, they’ve arranged a platter of bite-sized items from the menu of Choice Dregs, lost chunks of UCA recordings usually given only to Patreon supporters. However, something totally new and unexpected awaits at the end…

If you want to hear all episodes of Choice Dregs, plus a good amount of other extra content related to Midnight Marinara and UCA, please consider becoming a Patron at any level.

83 - "The Game" by PostMortemCreamPie

Losses aside, David and Kaela set up to play this unusual game with Matt Holley, and Eli and Kylie from Cinema Nippon/Animal Fact Files.
