This week Parker from @DissectThatFilm joins us as we dust off a forgotten slice of late-’90s sci-fi action with Paul W.S. Anderson’s Soldier (1998), starring a mostly silent but fully shredded Kurt Russell. From the bleak wastelands of junk planets to the emotionally stunted heart of a genetically bred killing machine, we’re breaking down the brutal, the bizarre, and the surprisingly heartfelt moments in this cult favorite.
Was Soldier ahead of its time or just another discarded relic from the video store shelves? We talk military programming, emotional reawakening, slow-motion explosions—and how this film might secretly be a cousin to Blade Runner. 🤯

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
