I found Scared Gay! After the collaboration with Random Number Generator Horror Podcast No. 9 and I was immediately hooked. The banter between Paul and Pablo is entertaining and addictive. And their conversations are so thoughtful and inclusive of the impacts and perspectives of Horror for the whole of the Queer community. I’m sad because I’m almost caught up with all the episodes and I’ll have to wait for new ones. Thank you for putting this work into the ether, it’s been a comfort and a joy to have these queer conversations during the real life horror and insanity of the start of 2026. 🙃

I found scared gay when they collaborated with random horror 9 and I’m so glad I’ve stuck with it. Paul and Pablo put in the work and research of seasoned film critics without alienating you as a listener with heavy film jargon, they’re also one of the few pods that don’t put all their reviews on popular movies behind a paywall, so if i want to hear them talk about a new film or a classic fave I know it’ll be available. On a sappy note its been a treasure to hear these two grow over the years and celebrate all the little life wins with them on the occasion that their lives ARENT a horror movie each week. Love this pod, love the gays 🤍

Was a good podcast until it became Paul talking about movies and Pablo going into excruciating detail about his niche fetish kinks. No thanks.

Honestly, one of my top 3 podcasts of the week! Horror has always been gay, and it’s just amaaazing to hear about 🤩 the banter, the reviews, the anal-sys, the guests, when they are present 👻🔪💕 love these people! Thank you for being the horrifyingly delightful bright spot in the desolate sky that is my week! Muah, if wanted!

Hello Scared Gay! My name is Ari and I found your podcast early this year from Random Horror 9. As a Queer POC it’s so comforting to hear the enthusiasm and love you two have for the horror genre. From deep dives to informative trivia to straight comedy tangents, you two have never made me feel so normal and seen about my interest in horror movies and the impact they hold in LGBTQ+ culture. This podcast is the highlight of my work week and gets me hype to watch along for the next episode. Not to get too cheeky, but my birthday is September 13th and I have just one wish (okay maybe two); for you to review Hellraiser (original, 2, or 2022 but 2022 imo is for the gaygaze) OR (do a laugh here) for me to be the first random fan on the podcast. No obligation to do any of these btw I’m just poking fun. Hugs and kisses from Chicago. <3

I have been trying to find my horror movie podcast niche for a long time now and I finally discovered Scared Gay a couple days ago. I scrolled thru the reviewed movies and am so impressed! Pablo you are my twin flame! I relate so much to your views on the reviewed movies and Paul you add so much as a modern and more conservative viewer ! You two did such an amazing and tasteful reviews on the couple more “controversial” films reviewed. Us horror lovers don’t always LOVE the movies we see but we sometimes watch these things almost to simply discuss and review them… because at the end of the day… we are kind of morbid nerds right!? I’m cool with it. Thanks for such an entertaining and enjoyable podcast. I am a female welder and spend long days welding and listening to pods and yours really made my day today. Kisses from Kentucky ! -Grace

I work in a very stressful job and do not have much free time. However, I always make an effort to watch the horror film of the month and listen to this podcast. I only wish I could describe films with the incomparable panache, the consummate verve, the enthralling cadences, the delicate gestures, the evocative expressions of America’s greatest tragic actress…….. Pablo Escobar. And then there is Paul. Thank you for the many laughs and fun times! You are both equally great! Recommendation- The Omen with Gregory Peck and Lee Remick.

Never have I wanted to be stabbed more than after listening to one of the Scared Gay! podcasts. Pablo and Paul dish out thought-provoking horror movie reviews with fun and playful banter. I’ve loved horror movies since I was a kid but haven’t always thought about their ties to the queer community. After listening to these podcast, I have a new appreciation for the horror genre and get more out of rewatching old horror movies, especially if they have some good eye candy like Pablo and Paul! I’m always interested to see what movie they’ll be throwing shade at next. Keep the episodes coming!

Travel, host, or ghost? I give this podcast a ‘Travel’ rating; I will go out of my way to get some good podcast from these guys. The episode on Heredity was one of the best they have done so far with their anal, sis of the complex family dynamics as well as healthy doses of humor. Listening to the podcast feels like sitting with my friends and laughing/discussing the horror movie of the week.

I’m a new listener, but an instant fan. Introduced to the pod via the Michael Varrati episode. Paul & Pablo are hilarious together, especially when they pair up with the Horror Daddies. Scared Gay! is a fantastic horror pod that is super gay and incredibly fun.

After discovering your podcast via Peaches Christ, I’m totally hooked! I love when you review a movie I’ve seen or is dear to my black heart. I’m even more thrilled when I discover a new classic! My anal-sys… keep up the amazing work boyz!! I can’t wait to hear what you discuss next! 💜💜

After listening to y’all on Random Number Generator Pod w/ Cecil and Jeffrey, I’ve been hooked. I love your better than Gilmore Girls queer banter, the real talk, and most importantly how much I’m learning about movies I know and love, as well as intros to movies I haven’t encountered. Thanks for being our guides, you’re the highlight of my week.

Love this podcast and both of the host. Not only are they a couple of daddies their movies reviews are very informative and they have such a great dynamic and chemistry. I look forward to every episode and all the jokes and funny noises from Paul and Pablo. xoxo 💋 H.D

Seriously love y’all. Funny, witty, and just a great time. love how long the episodes are. You really take time to go over movie / actor facts while also going over the plot of the movie. Only thing I’d do different is maybe the you could replace the wolf howl at the start of your theme with Pablo’s oooOOOuuu because let’s be real here, it’s very close hahaha

Pablo and Paul are the perfect duo. Chaotic, fun, hilarious, and informative, these two work well together to make the discussion any and all horror films entertaining and informative. A must for horror fans.

Love this show! These boys know horror like Carrie Bradshaw knows good sex. Love their movie insights and analysis and love their side stories and tangents. Do The Babadook soon please!

I’m so glad I found this podcast in time to binge every episode for Halloween. The hosts are a delight, and I love the movie choices. The Peaches Christ episode may be my favorite, but they’re all so good. Instant subscribe. 👍

No slasher flick left un-analyzed, no zombie reel left undiscussed! I think horror movies can be fun and interesting, and I love listening to Paul and Pablo break down these movies into discussion points. Learning the background, history, and their take on these flicks is a HORRIBLY FUN way to spend my podcast time!

Paul and Pablo are hilarious! If you have not yet listened, start now- I anxiously await new episodes to be released!

Paul and Pablo are always a joy to listen to, whether they’re thoughtfully analyzing the film or getting lost in a tangent. Hard recommend for anyone looking for queer horror content!

JFC this podcast is great! Horror film de(con)struction by analytical gays/gaze.

Love this pod. I laugh so much and enjoy the discussion. If you enjoy horror and comedy, this is right up your alley!

Horror films are my favorite! So great to hear the funny banter between Paul and Pablo! Paul is super detailed and knows the ins and outs of the films. Highly recommend!!

Loved hearing such a specifically queer point of view on these films. Paul has the insider knowledge, and Pablo offers great social commentary.
