Expect a comedically evil President, incredibly vocal Martial Arts & a streaming issue which seriously altered Sam's viewing experience.

For our 20th episode we watched Project Shadowchaser, an obscure Sci-Fi/Action romp about a Cybernetic terrorist who takes the President's daughter hostage! Think Terminator meets Die Hard - so bad it's (almost) good.

For this episode we've watched our very first documentary - Project Nim (2011)! The film follows a controversial research experiment aiming to raise a baby Chimpanzee as human, including teaching him sign language in the hope he will learn to use sentences.

What begins as a heartwarming tale quickly takes a dark turn and Nim's tragic life becomes one of our most upsetting & heartbreaking Projects so far!

After the success of the first ever ProjOctober we’ve taken a short break from recording, so instead enjoy a bonus episode we recorded for just this occasion.

Lewis has researched Project Cumulus, a UK government Project from the 1950s investigating weather manipulation!

Were the experiments a success? Did they cause the tragic flooding of a small town in Devon? And why does the government still deny the Project’s existence?
