Player Piano is a weekly conversation recapping HBO's Westworld. Hosts Dan and Trevor do their best to decode the plot, philosophy and filmcraft of the sci-fi epic.

In this bonus episode, Dan and Trevor discuss Annihilation, the new film by sci-fi auteur Alex Garland based on the excellent novel by Jeff Vandermeer. Is it a masterpiece? A misstep? Or somewhere in between? 

Drinking game: play along! Every time Dan says "phenomenon" take a couple shots of your favorite liquor.
