On episode 74 of Destroy All Culture, Adam and Aidan talk about life. Actually, they talk about Life, the Reynolds/Gyllenhaal/Ferguson sci-fi Alien-ish movie that features unexpected deaths and the best feel-bad movie ending of the year. Is it the Alien movie that Alien: Covenant could have and should have been? Yes it is, because Alien: Covenant was a whole heap of nonsense about the usual crew of ninnies who touch down on a planet and wander around obliviously until they bump into a set of jaws.

Also up for discussion: the current season of Doctor Who. After a set of strong episodes and a promising start to a storyline about reality-replacing monks, we now seem to be settling into a groove of subpar hours before the grand Moffatt-written finale. Will the final episodes crisp up the soggy middle of this sci-fi sandwich? I don't know. All I know is that I'm hungry now. Anyway, enjoy! Download here or catch us on the good old iTunes.
