  • 104. THE ATOMIC AGE PART 1: KLAATU BARADA NIKTO
    May 6 2024

    The first in our series where we try and palm off old episodes as something new and exciting. So, it's THE ATOMIC AGE PART 1, where we chat about films that were created in the shadow of the Oppenheimer bombs. The 1951 movie, The Day The Earth Stood Still is an absolute classic. The 2008 movie, The Day The Earth Stood Still, is definitely NOT a classic. Enjoy!
