The TV Sect Podcast
Welcome to The TV Sect! A podcast dedicated to the cult-like love of television. We’re your hosts, Moni Wood and Sierra DuCharme-Hansen, two emerging TV writers, expert TV watchers. Come share in our devotion to the Cult of TV, as we explore all the sacred things of scripted television. In each episode, we highlight a different aspect of a TV series and explore how it influences a show’s cultism. From teasers to tags, characters to costumes, aliens to zombies, and everything in between. Let us give you guidance into your binge-watching ways and provide a sanctuary for your episodic esotericism. Join us as we testify to our cult-like love of television and how we believe television can change the world. We welcome you to the fold!
