Magnum, podcast - revisiting \Magnum, podcast - revisiting "Magnum P.I.""Memories Are Forever" (S2E5-6)We wrap up this season of “Magnum, podcast” with a blockbuster two-hour special that introduces us to Magnum’s ex-wife, yet not wife in the eyes of the Catholic Church or the Vietnamese government, Michelle.

And we muse about how introducing Michelle in season 2 might have pulled the rug out from under all of Magnum’s future romance ambitions. Keep those emails coming to magnum@theincomparable.com and we’ll see you next year!

Ist der armbewegende Kaffeeknecht wirklich ein Roboter oder doch nur ein glorifizierter Automat? Gemeinsam wagen Chris und Alex einen Exkurs in die Definition von Robotern, Freiheitsgraden und was uns eigentlich als "frei" erscheint.
