Symptom 165: Close Encounters of the Third Kind, That was a weird encounter
Today’s episode, according to Scott, is about a deadbeat dad, a mother chasing her loopy kid, and a Frenchmen trying to contact aliens through a game of Simon. What makes this possible is that the US military has decided to let their D-listers take over guarding this ultra-important mission to make contact and get back missing persons, allegedly abducted by aliens. Despite there being an actual story arc with a plot that one can track on a traditional plot arc, Scott will insist it is an Abrams style mystery box with no answers or discernable plot. Luckily, our friend Ethan from Age of Geek and Drive Back the Night podcasts, joins the crew to try to set Scott straight. Good luck Ethan, for when Scott’s confused, he’s confused.
