Episode 427: Halo Effect

Just when you thought Disney had cornered the market on flawed dudes in armor Paramount + serves up Halo, the first live action adaptation of the long running video game franchise. There's action, there's aliens, there's serious body count, but is there enough here to build an audience beyond the gamer purists, many of whom are already finding reasons to not like it? As Dave has recently rejoined the commuter crowd he finally got around to reading Andy Weir's Project Hail Mary. The hosts give a mostly SPOILER lite review, and offer up several other suggestions for his next ride read. There's also the usual Random topics and a round of What's in the Box. Note: this episode contains no references to Will Smith or Chris Rock, so there's one more reason to listen. Thanks for listening!
