  • The rest of the crew are great too and XRay is hot. Sometime they have weird and awesome topics. But if you're allergic to common sense, you might wanna keep roaming.

Hollywood is DUMB! – Nerdrotic Nooner 539 w Chris Gore
Q: Is Barb in it?
No, she's not in the newer seasons.
DeDunking the Debunkers with Dan Richards | Forbidden Frontier #119
Q: What's your theory on science being so against this?
Ego, most of it to me. Carl Sagan was kind of the first scientist to really just push through and be like, I'm going to talk to the public first, and then I'm going to talk to my colleagues second.
Star Wars is DEAD! | Is Hollywood Killing Pop Culture | WB for sale – Friday Night Tights 377
Q: Has pop culture really died?
The speakers contend that while it hasn't technically died, it has significantly fragmented and lost a sense of shared cultural experience, primarily due to the influence of social media and algorithms.

Star Trek: Tylenol | Rise of Skywalker Lost Money | Gunn Missed His Shot – The Real BBC
Q: What do you think about the concept and execution of Star Trek in recent portrayals?
The recent Star Trek portrayals, especially with Star Trek Academy, reflect a significant disconnect from fan expectations and the essence of what Star Trek represents, leaning heavily into concepts of identity politics rather than traditional narrative structures.
