As if George's life wasn't busy enough, his favorite Russian film making antagonist is back from beyond the grave.  Kevin and George sit down, crack a bottle of non-flavored seltzer (thanks, Vic) and talk about Andrei Tarkovsky's iconic masterpiece STALKER. Meditative.  Beautiful.  Mesmerizing.  But, science fiction?  Well, it doesn't really matter.  Take the trip with us as we unwind what this moving piece of art did for our minds and for our souls.    BIBLIOGRAPHY: STALKER, 1979, dir. by Andrei Tarkovsky SPOILER POLICY:  We take a “fly on the wall” approach to our listeners.  As such, some of what we discuss falls into the realm of SPOILERS.  Consider yourself warned.

"Does a spaceship make it sci-fi?"   Come along with us for an episode that was originally recorded in January of 2021, deep in the throes of the pandemic.  So, does this mean The Busy Dads are back?  More will be revealed. What it DOES mean is that we had a few episodes "in the can" and there is no way we couldn't just thrust them upon the world. Join Kevin & George as we wonder on whether ET:  The Extra-Terrestrial is more of a fairy tale or a science fiction movie.
