In today's episode Eleanor Russell joins me to talk about Ruben Fleischer's 2018 comic book adaptation Venom. We discuss Tom Hardy's indelible performance as the titular extraterrestrial antihero, why Eddie Brock is a neurodivergent icon, the symbiote as a metaphor for ADHD, cooling off in lobster tanks, getting in touch with our goopy shadow selves, and our favorite parts of Seal's 90s classic "Kiss From A Rose". 

Note/disclaimer: the audio quality of this episode is a bit uneven due to some technical issues on my end. Blame the chaotic symbiote energy from the movie 🤪
