About this listen

In this episode of Girls Nerd Out, Amanda, Chris, and Zach boldly go where no crew member should go without a flamethrower — deep into 1979’s Alien (Part One). Join them as they break down Ridley Scott’s sci-fi horror classic, scream about space eggs, question the company’s shady health insurance plan, and wonder why no one trusts the cat.


Will Amanda side with Ripley or the Xenomorph? Will Chris find the chestburster scene amusing? And is Zach secretly rooting for the facehugger? Spoiler: yes.


Grab your motion tracker, avoid the air ducts, and get ready to laugh, scream, and probably never look at dinner the same way again.
