Story: 20 Jahre ist es her, dass Aliens die Erde attackierten und die Hälfte der Bevölkerung auslöschten. Vor allem der mutigen Mission des Piloten Steven Hiller und des Satellitentechnikers David Levinson verdanken wir es, dass die Außerirdischen 1996 besiegt wurden – tragischerweise kam Hiller dann 2007 ums Leben, als er einen Alien-Hybrid-Fighter testete. Und 2016 wird er umso mehr vermisst, als sich die Warnung des Ex-Präsidenten Whitmore bewahrheitet und die Außerirdischen einen neuen, noch verheerenderen Angriff starten! Die Menschheit, die in bis dato nie gekannter Einigkeit ein mit Alien-Technologie erweitertes Verteidigu...

A Little SnackShow #97 - King Bam-BamIn the pre-show discussion, or the "topic roundup" as Monolith always calls it, was not going well. Bear Trap was sure number 97 was going to be a bum episode: lots of ums and ahs and dead air and stone-faced listeners reaching for the pause button. But Monolith disagreed. He thought the chattin' would, like Ian Malcolm says about life in 'Jurassic Park", "find a way". As it turned out, Monolith was right. Click the play button on this episode of A Little Snack and feast your earholes on a wide-ranging talky-talk about many a thing some listeners may find diverting...
