This month on The Carpenter Factor, Zak and Corey are joined by Adam Speas from The Blast From Our Past and Cartwright! A Seinfeld Podcast to discuss The Thing (1982)! Since our original breakdown/review of The Thing is our most downloaded episode, we assume everyone already knows our thoughts on the film. So, we figured the best way to have a fresh conversation was with someone who hasn't seen The Thing before. And we were right- Adam adds a new perspective to the conversation!
