Ian and McKenzie welcome back their friend Christian Gutiérrez to usher in a special double feature for Noirvember.

This month we are all about Nightmare Alley as IP. On this episode, we discuss the original film adaptation from 1947. We chat Tyrone Power, how Nightmare Alley differs from typical film noir, as well as talk about film noir more generally.

McKenzie and Guti also briefly talk about what they have watched noir-wise so far this month.
