On this episode of X-Ray Vision, Jason Concepcion and Rosie Knight lend each other their ears! In the Previously On (1:29) Jason and Rosie acknowledge the recent distressing and upsetting news about actor Jonathan Majors and his arrest. In the Airlock (3:31), they dive deep (deeep) into the season 2 premiere of Yellowjackets, recapping and discussing Shauna’s chaos energy, Misty’s rightfulness, and where the season might unfold from here with some Tinfoil Hat™ theories. Next, in The Hive Mind (58:11) Jason and Rosie are joined by Scream V & VI co-writer Guy Busick to discuss writing the iconic horror franchise as a fan, the tricks to writing a great horror film, and more. Then in Nerd Out (1:28:16) a listener pitches Becky Chambers’ Monk and Robot series.

Note: Imprecise timestamps are an unfortunate side effect of a new ads system. Thank you for your patience as we work to resolve this issue.
