WARNING: This episode contains Alien³ spoilers!
We continue our Alien and Predator series with this acclaimed action sequel that falls short on carrying on the themes of the original. We discuss the film's takes on corporatism and militarism, gender and motherhood, and how its attempts at feminism reinforce the patriarchal order. We also get lost in a maze trying to figure out James Cameron's political videos and decide to print the legend when discussing how he pitched the movie.

Pooch the polyglot joins us to decipher the signs and signifiers hidden in the ideological clusterfuck that is Arrival (2016). We talk colonialism, language being (or not really being) magic, and the truly unknowable depths of the Other. We get into a big argument about what it's like to experience time all at once and reminisce about The Jeremy Renner App, a product too beautiful to survive this ugly world.

We begin our exploration of the Alien and Predator films with the masterpiece that started it all. Join us as we bask in the horror of being biological beings, as we confuse sexual organs, are consumed by Lacan's lamella, and as we struggle with the inevitably oppressive pairing of futurist technology and present day capitalism. We also announce a new patreon tier.

It's Godzilla's final film of the Heisei Era and we cover all your burning questions about it. Such as, how do you pronounce Destoroyah? What gender is Destoroyah and where does it fit on the Oedipal triangle? Is Godzilla.... dialectic? And what happens when you put a bunch of frozen iguanas in your car?

It's a No Gods holiday miracle! We're returning to the world of Gremlins to cover one of the most batshit movies ever produced. We discuss the origins of this anti-sequel sequel along with its critiques of corporatism, urban development, Orientalism, genetic research, consumerism and hierarchy. Also, is the Brain Gremlin smart? Or is he just talking?

We're getting back to nature, the old ways. Yeah, it's pretty uncomfortable and there's a fascist cult, but it sure does look pretty. We also talk grief, drugs, pagan deities and you get to hear how Charlie and Barto thought the election was going to go.

For Halloween we look back to the meanest monster to crawl out of the studio system, The Invisible Man. We touch on Bolsheviks, unchecked power, the CIA, the Manhattan Project, and the results of Barto's google search for "Invisible Man, gay?"
