This week we have a spooky pre-Halloween treat with writer/social media guru Andy Webb (Big Think) stopping by to watch the David Cronenberg sci-fi chiller Scanners for the first time.
Join us as we discuss how the famous head exploding scene is an early meme, debate our favorite Cronenberg films and delve into how a low budget Canadian sci-fi/horror flick basically predicted the Internet.
Follow Andy on Twitter and check out his work with folks like Bill Nye and Neil deGrasse Tyson over on Big Think.
Enjoy the smooth stylings of every Scanner's favorite soft rock band The Atlanta Rhythm Section.
