Disasterpiece Theater

2012 holds a unique place in the action/disaster/apocalyptic movie genres. Join us as we talk about why that is. Then stick around to learn about what it would take to REALLY build ships that size with naval architect and Marine Engineer David Visneski. Spoiler alert- your guess is probably wrong.

This is the movie that kicked off the idea for the show- from how a ship's crew is staffed, to what an away craft should do when it loses comms, to what the heck you wear on a strange planet we cover it all with guest helicopter pilot and disaster responder Russ Hall.

Join hosts Rev and Ana as they chat with cybersecurity expert and long time (former) DC resident Merrit Baer about all the crazy tech shenanigans in Live Free or Die Hard. The 4th movie in the Die Hard series finds McClane teamed up with a delicate hacker boi, while they face down a disgruntled former government contractor with a semi and some devious hacking schemes. There is also a jet. Blowing up a bridge.

Shark movies are the best. From Jaws to Three Headed Shark, these giant sea creatures have always captured the imagination of moviegoers. In this episode we chat with shark expert Amanda Fisher. Find out what gigantism is, if a meg could exist today, and what in the world to do to avoid being shark bait.
