About this listen

This week, the great Andrew Jagielski returns to the show to discuss the last of Saoirse's attempts towards traditional stardom, Andrew Niccol's The Host. An adaptation of the only non-Twilight novel Stephenie Meyer ever wrote, the film stars Saoirse as a young woman possessed by an alien parasite dueling for control over her body, and get this - they both like different boys. Listen in as we debate the metrics by which one determines what is the worst, eulogize the Saw franchise, consider the long term benefits of being in a flop, and go long on Saoirse's career in comparison to other actresses of her generation.
