  • Summary

  • Do you like science? Do you like movies? Well, have we got a combo for you!

    Every two weeks join us, real life physicists Freda and Abi, while we break down the science behind some of the best and worst movie plots out there. We also get real about the depiction of scientists and their working environment in movies and lay it all on the table with our WTF moments.

    Pacific Rim
    Nov 30 2023

    It's the end of a series, the end of our so bad it's good era! Praise the lord! We're closing out this year with a long one but it was such a hoot talking about this movie. The wild ride that is Pacific Rim.

    It's full of tropes but Idris Elba and topless Charlie Hunman made it all worthwhile.

    Just don't say the aussie accents were good...apparently Freda disagrees. oops


    We're on an extended break now until the new year! We'll drop a few uncut episodes and try to crank out a christmas special.

    Rest and be merry this holiday season!

    Thanks for listening to us for another year.
