Xenomorphs on Earth?! We break down the first two episodes of FX’s brand-new series Alien: Earth — including the new monsters, Noah Hawley’s vision, and how it connects to the larger Alien franchise. From corporate overlords to Peter Pan parallels, we dig deep into the lore, the scares, and the surprises. Then in Trailer Trash, we talk upcoming projects and trailers that caught our eye — including new films from the Safdies, Spike Lee & Denzel Washington, and more. What you’ll hear in this episode: Full recap & reaction to Alien: Earth Episodes 1 & 2 New creatures (yes, they’re gross) and how they fit into the Alien canon Thoughts on Noah Hawley’s writing/directing and future episodes Upcoming trailers & movie news in our Trailer Trash segment Whether you’re an Alien superfan or just here for the chaos, this episode’s got it all.
