That Was Pretty Scary is a horror podcast hosted by Jon Lee Brody. From reviews and recaps of classic and contemporary horror to deep dive analysis and conversations with creators, JLB explores why scary movies stick with us and why they matter.

NOTE TO LISTENERS:
When That Was Pretty Scary first launched in 2023, it began as a joint venture between Jon Lee Brody and Freddie Prinze Jr. In 2025, after 102 episodes together, Freddie departed the show and JLB continued on as the solo host. New listeners can enjoy the full archive of early episodes and then seamlessly transition into the current era of the show. Enjoy and stay scary!
