This episode we talk with our VERY FIRST ever guest, my husband, Scott Tundermann, about a film he’s been wanting me to see for a while, the 1984 Sci-Fi Comedy, Ice Pirates.

He hasn’t seen it since he was a kid, but remembers really thinking it was funny and often wonders why no one else seems to know about it, or have heard of it. I keep confusing it with the 2005 Pirates, which is the highest budget porno made. Join us as we descend into the chaos of Hollywood budgets and rewrites, while we look at the effect of positive nostalgia for media.
