Today, on The Goggler Podcast, Bahir and Uma watch and review HBO’s darkly surreal horror comedy, The Baby. They go into it completely blind and get utterly caught up in its wild and crazy ride. They also get sidetracked into a rant about why HBO continues to put out fresh content like this one while Netflix makes shows called Is It Cake?
You can watch The Baby on HBO (Astro CH 411) and on HBO GO.

The Baby is a darkly funny, raw examination of motherhood, from the perspective of a woman who doesn’t want to be one. Aged 38, she is furious that her closest friends are all having babies. But when she is unexpectedly landed with a baby of her own, her life dramatically implodes. Controlling, manipulative, but incredibly cute, the baby twists Natasha’s life into a surreal horror show. As she discovers the true extent of the baby’s deadly nature, Natasha makes increasingly desperate attempts to get rid of it. She doesn’t want a baby. But the baby definitely wants her.
The Baby was created by Siân Robins-Grace and Lucy Gaymer and stars Michelle de Swarte, Amira Ghazalla, and Amber Grappy.
