Jacked up and good to go! Fall into formation as we discuss Robert Heinlein’s science-fiction classic Starship Troopers, the 90s movie classic based upon it and what it has to do with the military industrial society we inhabit today. From tactical nukes to hypnotically programmed space marines and power armor - we dive into the creative imagination of Robert Heinlein to discover its fascinating origins, occult undercurrent and subtle, satirical underpinnings.
