#14 - The Fluffernutter and the Unappreciated AI

Join us as we make our triumphant return to work after a long vacation weekend and a beautiful wedding! Our hosts dive into the latest escapades from the Expeditionary Force series, including Skippy's "worm in me meltdown" and a daring jump through a black hole. We talk all about the challenges of voice acting in the audio drama, Homefront, and share our opinions on why voice acting should be taken as seriously as live-action acting. In this episode, we're also geeking out over the movie 28 Days Later, praising its innovative filming techniques and how a simple scene in a church gave us goosebumps. We even discuss our bizarre realization that several Doctor Who actors have starred in zombie movies, which is a weird little factoid for our listeners to enjoy. And of course, we had to finally try the legendary fluffer nutter, a snack mentioned repeatedly in the books. We share our honest review of this super sweet treat and brainstorm some other uses for an industrial amount of marshmallow fluff. Our hosts express their immense love for the Expeditionary Force books, defending them against criticisms they've seen online and proposing our own vision for a Star Trek-style TV show. The journey is what makes the books so good, and we love how the author isn't afraid to put the characters through the wringer.
