Be our guest to listen to our take on not one, not two, but three Beauty and the Beast films! We’re covering Beauty and the Beast (1991, Disney Animated), La belle et la bête (2014, French), and Beauty and the Beast (2017, Disney Live Action). Does Disney magic strike twice, and can the French reclaim their fairy tale? 

 The guys love sci-fi, and they both finally caught the 2016 film Arrival. Can a linguist save earth from aliens . . . or itself? Do time paradoxes make for good movies? Find out what Loren and Scott think in this episode!
