Are you hype for TRON: Ares this weekend? We sure are, but we figured just in case we’d lend a hand to help you get there. WAAAY back in December 2021, we had the co-host of The 70MM podcast, Danny Haas, join us for the Dune Pod Season 4 Finale, TRON: Legacy. Memmmorrrieesss... ANYWAY, it instantly became one of our all time favorite episodes. So, sit back and enjoy Jason and my quick chat about Ares & Legacy, and then this classic ep from the vault.

This is a special one. First of all, we welcome someone we have looked up to for a long time, a true hero speaking truth to power and calling out the stakes of this moment with clarity and passion: New York Times contributor and prolific voice on TikTok and YouTube, the one and only Jamelle Bouie! AND, he picked one of the biggest movies we’ve ever covered on the podcast, Paul Verhoeven’s 1987 satirical sci-fi masterpiece, RoboCop. I’D BUY THAT FOR A DOLLAR!

But then, when the instigator of our first ever non-Dune related BONUS Emergency - Civil War (2024) episode, host of the podcast Channels with Peter Kafka, Peter Kafka hit us up on the DMs and asked us when we were gonna fire up the mics, we had to answer the call. So, please enjoy this very special bonus episode discussing this fantastic movie and the political moment we find ourselves in.
