What happens when a filmmaker and an astrophysicist sit down and talk science fiction?

We are Julian and Titan, old friends who share a passion for sci-fi. Every week we dive into a range of movies, shows, and occasionally books, exploring both the cinema and science behind our favourite worlds.

Join us as we boldly go where no pod has gone before.

  • Plan 9 From Outer Space | EP 24
    Jun 29 2026

    Join us as we discuss the infamous Worst Film Of All Time... Or is it?

    Of course, this means our subject this week is "Plan 9 From Outer Space," the iconic cult flop from legendary B-movie director Edward D. Wood, Jr.

    In this episode we get into the technical deficiencies, weird science, and surprising charm all throughout the film. We also touch on some of the behind-the-scenes stories that shaped the outcome of the film. Finally, we end with a double-feature recommendation of Tim Burton's "Ed Wood," a piece that naturally complements "Plan 9" and can enhance one's appreciation of it.

  • Battlestar Galactica Watchalong | The Miniseries
    Jun 25 2026

    A new journey begins... We are taking on a full watchalong of the 2000s version of "Battlestar Galactica," one of the greatest pieces of science fiction ever made. Titan has never seen the show before so there will be no spoilers for anything past the current episode. First-timers are very welcome!

    Join us for our first edition as we discuss the 2003 miniseries that launched the show. We firstly get into the differences between this show and the original 1970s edition, a look at some of the creative voices behind the scenes, and placing it in the historical context of the early 2000s. Then we get into the show itself, as Titan meets the crew of Galactica for the first time. And just for any first-time viewers of BSG, the miniseries should not be skipped.

    Going forward we will be doing multiple episodes of BSG at a time, every second Thursday. For next time we will be discussing the first four episodes of Season 1.

  • Looking Back on Doctor Who | EP 23
    Jun 22 2026

    We're hopping back in the TARDIS this week as we have a conversation about the entirety of Doctor Who's revival era. With the news that the show has been put to tender by the BBC, we thought it was a good time to talk about one of the formative sci-fi shows of our youths.

    In this episode we look back on NuWho, Doctor by Doctor, giving our thoughts and connections to each, while we also unpack the creative choices made over time by different creative teams helming the show. We conclude our chat by looking ahead at the future of the show, putting a positive spin on the recent news and pitching our ideal takes on the franchise.
