Joining them for this unconventional discussion is Mike Crowley of You'll Probably Agree, who helps break down the history, controversy, and politics of this galactic imperialist misadventure!
Also, the guys catch up on Sujewa and Mike's current and future indie film projects, and plant the seeds of a rollicking second season!
Lastly, Ian recommends the latest episode of The Spoiler Room Podcast, in which he undergoes some movie therapy regarding Alien: Resurrection!
