Our friend and guest, lisa Harmon, passed away tragically last week. We're re-releasing the episode we had her on, to share once more what a funny and lovely person she was.

This is the show's first Jim Jarmusch film. It could also be our  last Jim Jarmusch film if George has anything to say about it.

This time it’s Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum  and a cast of dozens turn to experience the pain of encountering a super advanced race from the stars. Clearly, Hollywood and the general public love this plot but does that mean this movie still works?
