Episode 481 – 28 Years Later: The Story of a Boy and His Mom Hiking Through the Apocalypse
Post-Apocalyptic Parenting Is the Real Horror
This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl take a long, LONG hike through the post-apocalypse with 28 Years Later — a movie that proves the rage virus still hits hard, especially when it’s your kid in danger. Then we check in on Murderbot episode 7, where things get personal, kaiju get frisky, and the crew gets real about trust issues. Plus, Mahershala Ali wants to know what’s up with Blade, and honestly? So do we.
