We're releasing this as special bonus content for our recent episode of UnEarthed: a wonderful little interview with Maggie Phillips and Jeff Russo, Alien: Earth's Music Supervisor and Composer, respectively!

Among other duties, Maggie is behind the "needle drops" in the show—a hallmark of Hawley's style, and a thrilling (if somewhat divisive) addition to the Alien universe. And Jeff was kind enough to come back on just a...

SPOILERS AHEAD

Here is Jaime and Patrick's review of the first episode of Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth. Recorded immediately after the premiere screening in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, this conversation is a deep dive into the themes, characters, and events in this first episode. We're releasing this as the review embargo lifts in the hopes you'll tune in once you've had a chance to see it (especially those of you attending the sc...

From managing expectations to experiencing the unknown, all aspects are covered as we anxiously await the series premiere on August 12.

Two of the most intriguing characters in Alien: Earth (at least from what we've seen so far!) are, without a doubt, Wendy (played by Sydney Chandler) and Morrow (Babou Ceesay). Jaime and Patrick had the chance to chat with them inside FX's podcasting space at San Diego Comic-Con 2025, and we're more intrigued than ever to see where these characters go throughout the rest of the season!

It was an utterly surreal moment: talking abou...

In the midst of all the chaos at SDCC, Jaime and Patrick managed to sit down with TQ Jefferson and Eugene Elkin from Survios to chat about Alien: Rogue Incursion's upcoming move to consoles! This was recorded on an iPhone in a loud ballroom, so the audio isn't great. But luckily there is video as well! Check our channels for that later today.

Just moments after the SDCC Hall H Alien: Earth panel ended—a panel which included a screening of the full first episode!—Jaime and Patrick ran back to the podcast studio to record some quick thoughts. There are NO SPOILERS in here, so don't be worried about that.

We then stayed in the studio for another 45 minutes and recorded our first-ever spoiler reaction/analysis of Alien: Earth's pilot, which was immense fun. Look for that af...

This is a big one, folks! Our first interview with someone involved directly in the production of Alien: Earth (first of more to come ...). We're so pleased to bring you this conversation with Jeff Russo, composer of the intriguing score of FX's Alien: Earth.

Jeff, a frequent Noah Hawley collaborator, has had quite the career: originally a founding member of Grammy-nominated rock band Tonic, Jeff transitioned into scoring film, tel...

In this episode, Perry and Jaime sit down with Alien: Lost Transmission writer-director Connor Botts and his co-writer and star, Benjamin Mayer. This might just be one of our most entertaining conversations yet. From Connor’s first sparks of inspiration to last-minute reshoots and shifting release dates, the duo dives into the passion, chaos, and creative fire behind their stunning short film.

In this episode, Patrick, Andie and Jaime talk with Legacy Effects artist Adam Milicevic about his work on Alien Romulus, the challenge of creature design, the ever-changing film industry and so much more. This episode was meant to drop on Alien Day 2025 but fell through the cracks. We are so excited to present it to you now. If you'd like to follow Adam and his work, he's on Instagram @civicdilemma.
