APPLE PODCASTS | SOUNDCLOUD | SPOTIFY
The second part of our discussion of the Alien Franchise ends with a whimper rather than a bang as we try hard to appreciate the beautiful-but-flawed Prometheus and Alien: Covenant.
CW: We discuss physical and sexual violence as presented in these films, as well as Space Jesus, Robot Lucifer, the stupidest scientists ever sent to meet alien life, and why all women could benefit from a robot companion (as long as it’s not programmed by a narcissistic asshole).
As always, you can find us on Twitter! If you want to rate and review us on iTunes, that would be very much appreciated. See the show notes below.
