Episode description

Annihilation is our first movie!


In this episode, we talk about the queen that is Natalie Portman, exploding aliens, mesmerising synth music and our love for a movie monster! Freda coins the term 'sexy-science pillow talk' while Abi has a PPE concern in her WTF moment. But did we really get the refracting concept? Were our concerns about female science representation real or did our biases get in the way?


It's a trick of the light!
