## Resource

Hey there all you robutts! My friend and author Paul Ryan O’Connor is back and he’s here to help me cover my favorite science fiction film of all time! This is going to be a longer episode as it’s a long movie plus Paul has an amazing connection to it. We had a great time discussing this one, and we hope you enjoy it!
