Important If True

Important If True 1: A Gleaming Collaborative Future


Listen Later

I can't believe we've done this. It's a brand new podcast. Join us, won't you? We're delving into the minutiae of pop culture, technology, and our own lives to find some kind of meaning—or at least to spin everything out as absurdly as we can. This week: Why do hawks ride planes, when they could fly? Who oils The Terminator's pecs? And what's Snagglepuss up to, exactly? These questions and more are answered definitively, sort of.


Important Reference: plane falcons, Snagglepuss reboot, zombie snails, Boston Dynamic's latest robot
