Jake and Ron celebrate the 40th anniversary of John Carpenter's The Thing!
This episode is dedicated to Stephen Colbert, who is the biggest and most knowledgeable fan of John Carpenter's The Thing in this world and, perhaps, even the next! He's also a wonderful singer and dancer! Oh, and he's also a late-night talk show host on CBS/Paramount Plus. We need downloads from Antarctica,  so Antarcticans, please check out this episode!!! And please be safe (seriously).
