We're back!
In this very special crossover episode, Heidi Bennett and Molly Bailen from Cabin Minute Cast join us to talk about Philip Kaufman's 1978 sci-fi classic INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS! We talk about connections to THE THING, sound design and music, and of course the raw sex appeal of peak Donald Sutherland.
We had a great chat and it's a great movie that clearly had some influence on THE THING, so check it out!

In addition to today's regular episode, here's a special treat for Halloween!

While I did the sound design, the rest could not have happened without the extreme generosity of the Atlanta Radio Theatre Company!
