Ep. 443: Mars Attacks (1996)

Hello dear listeners! This week, we've come in peace to bring you a look at the most goodest of trashes, Mars Attacks. This throwback, love letter to the classic camp of Hollywood is from Tim Burton—only his second appearance on the show following Batman several years ago. This week, we discuss adapting niche intellectual properties, American foreign policy, Tim Burton and race, and much, much more. Tune in now else are new Martian overlords will have our hides!
