Skin of a Killer is a Twilight podcast hosted by three friends: Charlie, Mary, and Caitlin. Mary and Caitlin are long-time fans of the franchise, and Charlie is a first-timer. We read through the books in sections, then watch the movies, providing fun commentary along the way. We approach the series with love and nostalgia, as well as accountability and honesty. And lots of jokes. Follow us on instagram at @skinofakillerpodcast.
