Podside Picnic

Karlo's joined by M.K. Anderson to talk about the 2014 film Ex Machina. We discuss Turing Tests, the ethics of creating possibly sentient robots, and why casting charismatic and sexy Oscar Isaac as the Bad Guy almost doesn't work.

Podside's first book club! Listen in to our Discord community's discussions of Seth Dickinson's 2015 novel, The Traitor Baru Cormorant (Chapters 21 - 25).

Pete and Karlo are joined by none other than Connor to chat about season 2 of Netflix's anthology show, Love Death + Robots. Go watch it -- it's pretty good!

Pete and Karlo are joined by Trev and Ted from We Need to Talk About Kevin Podcast for John Carpenter's Christine (1983). If you ever fall into unrequited love with a car that was made evil, we have all sorts of advice for you.

It's time for a little anti-Italian discrimination as Rite Gud's own Sid Oozeley and I answer the age-old question: can a sad antifa pig-man fly?

Pete and Karlo are joined by Emma Berquist to talk about the 2020 horror film, The Empty Man. Listen as we talk about tulpas, the self-help tips of the Pontifex Institute and Emma's dog offers her own (grumbling and adorable) opinions.

Pete and Karlo are joined by Kurt Schiller and Chris Woodward of Parents Just Don't Understand Podcast to talk about Excalibur (1981). We discuss how this film feels like a new adaptation of the source material, which may be a dream to some. . . a nightmare to others!

A new month, a brand new beer run where Pete and Karlo talk about Brood X as a potential buffet for dogs of all sizes, the merits of small beer in the medieval ages and how we'll be covering The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings in July, nbd

Pete and Karlo are joined by the most dangerous woman in speculative fiction, Raquel S. Benedict to talk about RoboCop. Spoiler alert: we all love this movie, so it's with a heavy heart we must say ACAB includes RoboCop.
