This is a fitness running and tech podcast by Nick and Jon. This is also a review of the world's biggest movie, Avatar.
The movie stars Channing Tatum as Jake. A guy with no legs. We meet him first in space, where he’s floating about and demonstrating 3D to us all.
But then he lands on a planet (no name) where Duke Nukem is driving a mech and getting really angry all the time. Also, there are Sigourney Weaver, a scientist, and Phoebe from Friends’s brother Frank and he loves mining.
Thus the stage is set for Avatar, a movie in which a guy wants to mine, a lady wants to science, and Duke Nukem wants to blow shit up.
Also on the planet are some blue aliens who have horses that are dragons. They live in a tree. We will be back next week to talk about fitness running and tech.

Jon went off book and did an intro to explain the delay on this episode and try to contextualise it, but history keeps happening and it's now the day after the "mini-budget" and things seem to have gotten even worse.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Here's a chat we had before the heat wave when we innocently thought a 2 grand utility bill was a lot of money.
