ThisWeekInGeek’s Loose Cannon is our all around movies podcast covering the weird, wild, or sometimes nostalgic world of films.
 
This time, Ken, David and Adam enter a space where no one can hear them scream. We're talking Alien's prequel movies, Promethus, Alien Covenant and Alien Romulus. Two of which we all found to hold up better than expected and one that we're questioning it's longevity in the cinematic milieu. 

It’s time to get ready to hunt some xenomorphs on TWIG Loose Cannon. Please Be Kind and Don’t Forget to Rewind before returning your videos to the shelves.

Random Access Memory or TWIG RAM is our shoot from the hip media agnostic discussion podcast. Join Birdman, Ken, David, and Adam as we discuss media we’ve consumed either off the cuff or with a specific vague topic in mind…as well as a few off topic tangents that might pop into our heads along the way.

This time, Ken joins Birdman and David as they continue our Personal 8 Tracks series. We now dive into the track listings of Birdman and David’s own individual 8 Track Playlists that represent who they are. We dive deep into many a genres of music and not only learn about each other but also get to share our music love with you all. It’s a music discussion this time around.

Jack into our Random access memories here on TWIG!
