Show Notes

This week, Grace and Niamh are covering the 1954 Robert Matheson masterpiece, I Am Legend, and its third adaptation, 2007’s Will Smith blockbuster of the same name. We get into pandemics, devastating loneliness, self destruction, and humankind’s irreversible destruction of the planet. It’s actually one of our cheerier episodes!
