Show Notes
Two decades ago scientists sent a message to space... This... is the reply. This week we are joined by Eanna and Ande of The Queens of NC-17 podcast as MONSTER MARCH continues! Together we will cover 1995's SPECIES. After receiving extraterrestrial DNA from a mysterious transmission, scientists create a rapidly maturing hybrid who soon breaks free. As she embarks on her own mission, experts scramble to stop her before she endangers humanity.
Also this week: A ten thousand dollar toilet, Ben's time in the circus, and The Queens have their own version of the Step by Step theme.
