Ep1235: Disclosure Day (2026) - Live Roundtable Review
The lesson of Disclosure Day is that the truth is out there...and no one cares!
Steven Spielberg's return to sci-fi with a movie that's less close encounter than close call. Josh O'Connor and Emily Blunt star as two strangers who find themselves at the heart of a corporate conspiracy involving aliens who've been visiting Earth for decades.
