It's back to space this week as the guys watch Duncan Jones' father wow audiences and critics (at least in modern reviews) alike with The Man Who Fell to Earth. They talk about Bowie's real-life fragile mental state framing his performance, the themes in the film that are even more appropriate today, Rip Torn's penis, the contemporary mixed reaction to the film and much more.
