DAC Episode 241: This Podcast Is Being Adapted From Itself

/

On this week’s Destroy All Culture, Adam and Aidan talk about adaptations of the many cherished bits and pieces of science fiction from our childhoods. Is this wave of adaptations a good thing? Or - and hear us out here - is it a bad thing? Or more to the point, how do we handle material with clearly outdated ideas on politics, gender and so on? Do we want to see a mini-series based on, say, a late-period Heinlein novel? An extended Thomas Disch rant? But here we go: Asimov’s Foundation novels, which seem completely adaptation-proof, have been adapted.

DAC Episode 239: The bag of weirdness

/

Adam recommends Centaurworld to Aidan, describing it as a “bag of weirdness the likes of which I’ve never seen”. Adam then recommends Heathen Chaos Potato Chips, with its panoply of three strange flavours. Aidan delivers a riposte with his experience of Herr’s Carolina Reaper Cheese Curls. After that, who wants to hear Aidan’s review of Shang-Chi? You do! We hope.

/

Oh hey! The final season of Brooklyn Nine Nine is upon us. Adam and Aidan discuss the first episode and how it attempts to balance the demands of a workplace comedy with reflecting the general ACAB-ishness of the world. Also, predictions for Matt Ryan’s Constantine on Legends of Tomorrow. Plus more! MORE! Listen below or find us wandering around the hallways of Apple Podcasts.
