Next Episode: Last Survivors of the Covenant, 2: ALIEN: COVENANT, Automythopoesis, Empire, Kinship, and Shower Sex

Part 1 of 2!

In our final episode of our miniseries exploring the Alien franchise, Matt and Hilary, joined by the inimitable Bill, discuss Alien: Covenant, Ridley Scott's second non-prequel, released in 2017. We like this installment quite a bit, and have a lot of fun picking it apart. We talk wheat (the grain!), xenomorph kitty kats (to protect the grain!), and interstellar neoliberal postmodern settler colonialism (to grow the grain! and build a cabin!).

Also pregnancy, reproduction, embryos, history and/ of/ by prequels, robots with accents, and kinship.

Back very soon with part 2!
