Season 8 Episode 7: Avatar: The Way of Water (with Special Guest!)

James Cameron has spent so many years making movies underwater it's shocking that he hasn't grown gills by now.  This long-awaited sequel to his blockbuster Avatar (over a decade, so it better be good!) finally surfaced in 2022.  Can't really say it's better than the original, but it's definitely "wetter"!  We have those big blue digital cat people living in their psychedelic jungle for a while, and then they migrate to these nifty coastal villages and make friends with whales and stuff.  There's enough crazy creatures under the sea to give Jacques Cousteau a boner.  If he wasn't dead.  If you even know who the heck Jacques Cousteau was.  Doesn't matter.  But, you will definitely learn a whole lotta science stuff, marine biology and human evolution from my highly intelligent guest, David Franklin.  I'll make some jokes, he'll make some sense, and at some point we might even mention the Avatar movie.  Ready to take a deep dive?
