Rico and I discuss campy 50's Sci-fi, why they endure, and why we love them.

We discuss LGBT+ films with Chai Me a River host Shane Lamba (@shanelamba21 on Instagram, @punjabipapii21 on TikTok), and where we want to see our representation in films going forward.

Chris and Rico discuss our favorite Star Wars films and the enduring legacy and cultural phenomenon of the iconic franchise.

In a shorter episode, I make my plea to stop using that Studio Ghibli filter. Then I talk about some of my favorite first-time viewings, books, TV shows, and video games.
