I love podcasts, and I regularly listen to several. When my friend Alex moved out of state, I jumped at the chance to start recording our frequent, epic conversations about movies, books, video games, music and other pop cultural masterpieces (or detritus). If you like that sort of thing, please take a listen to this first episode of the Boom Culture Podcast. Alex and I discuss the 2012 Ridley Scott film Prometheus in the context of Scott’s work, the Alien series, and the horror and science fiction genres.
Boom Culture will be updated as we record and edit episodes. You can subscribe in iTunes or your podcast catcher of choice, or download directly to see if you like it.
