Episode 116: And That’s Where It All Goes Gooey

This week, dear listeners, we return with guest Duck Washington for a conversation about science gone wrong in movies! We discuss many of our favorite sci-fi films in terms of ethics, real-life dilemmas, and copious amounts of wine. If you would like to drink along (and you very well might), we suggest either the classy Piattelli Vineyards Malbec or the ever-reliable Low Hanging Fruit Merlot Reserve. Edited June 23rd, 2016 to add: One of our fine Brians, Mr. Donohue, has created a lovely title card for this episode. Witness its kaijutastic glory! Show notes behind the cut!
