Episode 12: They Live (1988)

Hal and Craig welcome guest Kevin Cole aka The Primal Root—owner and proprietor of the oft-mentioned Cap City Video Lounge—to discuss John Carpenter’s 1988 anti-capitalism, sci-fi masterpiece THEY LIVE. Discussions also include: the petition to put access to safe abortions on the ballot in Florida; our new(ly indicted) king: George Santos; what we’ve been watching lately, including EVIL DEAD RISE, THE MOTHER, and RENFIELD; the stranglehold Reaganomics has had on the world for the last forty years; and the police as the enforcers of capitalism.
