This week we are joined by a true and original friend of the show, Farhad, to continue the exploration of the Paul Verhoeven action satire trilogy with 1990's "Total Recall". Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sharon Stone, Michael Ironside, Robby Cox, and Rachel Ticotin alongside others, this 90s classic adapts Phillip K. Dick's short story, "We Can Remember It For You Wholesale." We discuss Verhoeven's repeated misinterpretation by conservative viewers, the progressive levels of complexity his movies achieve, and the metaphorical power of overcrowded aquariums.
