This time on “Off the Clock”, Patron topics. A.Ron tells us about Andy Samberg’s new movie, Palm Springs. Jim tells us about Black Crouch’s time-travel novel, Recursion. And we conclude our discussion of The Last of Us Part 2 now that we’ve both played through the entire game.

A big thank you to Ann Merin for commissioning this podcast on Chaos on the Bridge, William Shatner’s 2014 documentary that peeks behind the scenes of the first few years of Star Trek: The Next Generation with cast interviews describing tumultuous power dynamics both in and out of the writers room.

Jim is mixing up Bloody Marys for a series of summer lunches which eventually becomes “On the Rocks” while we debate this year’s Emmy nominations.
Tomorrow is the 10th anniversary of Christopher Nolan’s dreamscape heist film, Inception. We covered it immediately after its initial release and 10 years later we’re back to do it all over again.
