A spontaneous extra for you cinephiles and gamers out there! Before releasing our regular episodes of Season One as per schedule, we wanted to produce a little something in collaboration with our parent, Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast! This is something trending this month that also we feel presents itself as both a movie and a game in many ways—Black Mirror: Bandersnatch! This is a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure-style Netflix original movie, in which the viewer (or player) guides protagonist Stefan Butler (Fionn Whitehead) through a dark and twisted plot to develop a five-star game. Without spoiling the multiple endings and meta narrative twists in full, we discuss the value of this new interactive media adventure, with Collateral Gaming and Collateral Cinema taking different sides! Give our spoiler-free review a listen and check out the movie/game for yourself if you haven't! And stay tuned for our next regular episode, Sucker Punch Productions' InFAMOUS: Second Son next week!

Collateral Gaming and Collateral Cinema are both on iTunes, Chill Lover Radio, and wherever else you get your podcasts. Also, find us each on Patreon; we will have exclusive commentaries on our favorite movies and games soon!
