Episode description

Knock-knock. Who's there? Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold Schwarzenegger who? Arnold Schwarzenegger making a knock-knock joke in this episode's feature movie Predator! Artist/photographer/comedian Emily Peacock has hand-selected this classic action-packed movie because of the unique bond that she shares with it and her dad growing up in rural Texas. With elements of humor and absurdity, this heart pumping deep-dive allowed us to explore Emily's artwork on multiple levels, but don't worry, we didn't push TOO many pencils!

Tangents include: competitive weightlifting, Cheetos in any form or color, James Abbott McNeill Whistler, homoeroticism, Ana Mendieta, crooked teeth, Jurassic Park, Eddie Murphy, censorship
