In this episode, Chris and Jess break down the dark comedy horror-thriller Companion — a wild ride into the world of artificial intelligence, emotional connection, and what happens when machines get a little too close for comfort.

We dig into the film’s twisted characters, unexpected humor, and eerie atmosphere, all while unpacking the big question: Do AI robots actually have feelings, or are they just reflecting our own desires back at us? 

Plus, we break down the movie trailers that had us hooked and explore how the director came up with this unique and disturbing story. 

From ethical dilemmas to jaw-dropping moments, this episode blends thoughtful conversation with the usual horror-comedy chaos you’ve come to expect.
