Could the alien from ALIEN really exist? Ethan sits down with comedian Jessimae Peluso (GIRL CODE, HIGHLARIOUS PODCAST, SHARP TONGUE PODCAST), and Dr. Brian Brown (Head of the Natural History Museum's Entomology Department and Curator of Entomology) to discuss the sci-fi horror film ALIEN.

We learn about all kinds of parasites, diptera (flies), egg desiccation, and a whole lot more.
