    Nov 21 2025

    This week's episode is all about The Great Beyond. Not death, but the infinite expanse of space that extends far beyond our own planet. Marcus Zavala joins me to talk about why Christopher Nolan's Interstellar makes him cry, what Space Cowboy Matthew McConaughey can teach us about fatherhood, and the pervasive sense of disquiet that stems from seeing Matt Damon onscreen.
