In our latest episode, regular hosts Haitch and Jason are joined by Internet thought leader and General Partner at Google Ventures, M.G. Siegler. We tackle Paul Muad’dib himself, Timothee Chalamet’s very first film, Christopher Nolan’s 2014 epic, Interstellar. We discuss the dangers and responsibilities of being a parent, Jason gives a 4 part symposium on the Physics of Interstellar, and we consider just how alike Chris Nolan and Denis Villeneuve truly are.
