    A quieter episode, but filled with fascinating angles to think about and explore, entertaining character dynamics, and most of all, rising tension on all fronts. This thing is clearly headed towards a major clusterf&@ck... Kara and Jason are happy to be joined this ep by Alien aficionado Archmaester Renny!

    4: Alien: Earth S1E1&2 "Neverland" & "Mr. October"
    Aug 14 2025
    The wait is over — Alien: Earth has landed, and Noah Hawley’s first two episodes deliver everything we hoped for: suspense, grotesque alien terrors, strange new lifeforms, and a sharp look at how unchecked corporate ambition could shape our future — in a series that (at least so far) feels both classic and brand new. Join Jason, Randy, and Kara as we dig into “Neverland” and “Mr. October.” Links: Brain interface used to edit YouTube video — paralyzed Neuralink patient also uses AI to narrate with his own voice: https://www.tomshardware.com/peripherals/wearable-tech/brain-interface-used-to-edit-youtube-video-paralyzed-neuralink-patient-also-uses-ai-to-narrate-with-his-own-voice?utm_source=chatgpt.com Next up: Alien: Earth S1E3 “Metamorphosis”.

    We can’t lie, we’re excited for Pluribus, the upcoming series created by Breaking Bad showrunner Vince Gilligan. I (Jason) am equally thrilled to be covering that on this podcast after Alien: Earth, with my former Walking Dead ‘Cast co-host of 10 years, Karen! Happiness is contagious. Join us in this quick episode for a rundown on everything we know so far about this series, plus some speculation on what it’s going to be about.
