There can be only one! Or at least there should have only been one. Welcome to this week's special After Dark edition of the Galactic Driftwood podcast. This week we're taking another dive into the world of bad science fiction with a watching of Highlander 2: The Quickening. Some will remember the 1980's cult classic, Highlander, or perhaps the 90's follow up show of the same name. This is that...but not in any way that could have mattered to the writers of the first movie. Now there's aliens, (with guns AND swords), interplanetary travel and time travel, global conspiracies, evil CEOs and at least one kitchen sink... probably. Because we're never content to suffer alone we dragged special guest hosts Mark and Zack along for the ride! Come and join us for another excellent (your results may vary) episode of the Galactic Driftwood Podcast!

He is perhaps the unluckiest being in the galaxy.He has wound up at the Human Exchange Concourse, or the ”HEC,” once the site of Humanity’s First Galactic Fair. It was the biggest flop in Human history. ”The Fairgrounds” is perhaps the unluckiest place in Human space.
