Ep. 30: 'Project Hail Mary,' Ryan Gosling & What Makes Good Sci-Fi

In this episode of 'Adaptation: The Book to Movie Podcast,' Nate and Chris break down 'Project Hail Mary' by Andy Weir and its dazzling film adaptation directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller.

They discuss what makes Rocky such a special little guy, why Weir's brand of science fiction is spot-on for modern audiences, and what it means to be a crowd pleaser.
