This week, Windy returns to join me and talk about Sam Esmail's 2023 film, Leave the World Behind! We'll talk about misanthropy, infrastructure collapse, and the Friends season finale (yes, really). We'll meet our first true doomsday prepper, and learn about Havana Syndrome; and we'll ask ourselves, what's the cheapest way to take down a country? Join us there, at the end of the world!

Stranger Things, genre, and story structure, as considered by Tumblr, here.

President Obama's involvement in Leave the World Behind, as reported by Forbes, here.

Havana Syndrome, as explained on History Channel's History's Greatest Mysteries, here.

Leave the World Behind can be viewed on Netflix.
