Viscosity in the Early 80s with Chris Nashawaty
Manage episode 433071335 series 2769703
Chris Nashawaty, author of The Future Was Now: Madmen, Mavericks, And the Epic Sci-Fi Summer of 1982, joins Drew and Roth to talk about movies in the 80s! They ask Chris about the unifying idea underneath ET, Blade Runner, Wrath of Khan, Conan The Barbarian, Poltergeist, The Thing, and The Road Warrior: moist monsters are moist monsters are better than dry monsters. And looking back on 1982, they wonder if the movie business ever made any sense, or at least did it function better with goofy cocaine-addled execs. And as always, they dive into the Funbag, figuring out which guests at Shreveport Geek'd Con '24 they’re more famous than.

About The Show
The Distraction is Defector's flagship podcast about sports (and movies, and art, and sandwiches, and certain coastal states) from longtime writers Drew Magary and David Roth. Every week, Drew and Roth tackle subjects, both serious and impossibly stupid, with a parade of guests from around the world of sports and media joining in the fun! Roth and Drew also field Funbag questions from Defector readers, answer listener voicemails, and get upset about the number of people who use speakerphone while in a public bathroom stall. This is a show where everything matters, because everyone could use a Distraction. Head to defector.com for more info.
