Our three co-hosts are stuck in the multiverse and need to get back to their home universe. Clearly, the only way to do that is to explore our cultural obsession with multiverses, alternate timelines and parallel worlds, and tie it all into a conversation about post-modern art, pop culture, and the lessons these stories teach us. Also, each episode, one of them is an asshole who will probably sabotage the whole thing.

This week we discuss 1981’s Time Bandits.

If you guys ever decide to wrap up this series, you should plan out the bits for 2-3 episodes so that by the last episode, all 3 characters have been replaced by multiverse assholes.

Bear with me, but "there's gotta be a multiverse film that's all flaws all the way down" reminds me of Candide, which was written by Voltaire to explicitly point out that God cannot be both infinitely good and infinitely powerful. And because Candide is a satire of the "best of all possible worlds," argument, I'd argue it's a commentary on multiveral theory... making it a multiverse story. Which is all to say: Forest Gump is a multiverse movie.

Alternatively, can I pitch a Candide sequel? Candide travels the increasingly shitty multiverse? Working titles include "Buckaroo Candide Across the 8th Dimension" and "Candide 2: Hypercube"
