First off, this episode was recorded before the passing of George Romero, and we both want to express our condolences to his family and friends and all the fans. Let's face it, Romero is the reason any of this is happening. TWD would not exist without him. We're so sad to hear of his passing, and we're thankful for his work. We also want to give condolences to family, friends, and co-workers of Walking Dead stunt man John Bernecker who died in an accident on set last week. Our heart ...

May 09, 2017•2 hr 35 min•Transcript available on Metacast Minimal. Creepy. Seductive. Highly disturbing. But enough about my guest cohost this week, Harry Duran, let's talk about the movie we're covering, Under the Skin, starring Scarlett Johansson :P It was all those things, and also, we thought, incredibly thought-provoking and well made—and it's crazy the movie used footage from hidden cameras filming Scarlett Johansson actually picking up men.
