The Truman Show (w/ Miguel Conner)
Lots of "metas" to wade through with Jim Carrey's first notable foray into a more dramatic role. We think a few Deep Thoughts, consider what it takes to make a satisfy...
When Worlds Collide
This one is a groundbreaking, early sci-fi feature - but it's also a mighty dry affair and serves up a heaping pile of 1950's weird racism. Matt and Luke try to unpack...
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (w/ Scott Atkinson)

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (w/ Sue and Sarah from Women at Warp)

Short Circuit and Short Circuit 2
Rolling through our sci-fi comedy month is this duo of films that are as 80's as you can get. There may have been Wall-E, and 80's Robot, but Johnny Five was first - ...

In 2002, it all seemed so fantastically dystopian. But in 2020, it comes across more like reality spiced with a few gallows humor anachronisms. We get deep into the ...
Magical Mystery Tour (w/ Dan Richter)
This Beatles flick is more bizarrely fantastical than science fiction, but today's guest certainly has some serious sci-fi cred. Dan Richter is at the center of a V...
Batman Begins
SWEAR TO ME YOU WILL LISTEN TO THIS PODCAST!!! We will be getting to more Nolan films, but this is the last of our 2020 Nolan month, which ends without a new Nolan fi...
Inception (w/ Santiago Velasquez)
The original idea was so do a Nolan month that would be capped off by Christopher Nolan’s new sci-fi, “Tenant.” In our weird world, that one has been pushed back to m...
Interstellar (w/ Dr. Erin MacDonald)
