PODMETHEUS: AN ALIEN PODCAST is hosted by author and podcaster A. J. Black & podcaster Mark McManus, exploring all facets of the Alien franchise on the big and small screens.

This time, joined by podcaster and Alien franchise obsessive Rob Turnbull, the podcast looks at David Fincher's legendary 1992 sequel, Alien3.

Endlessly controversial, with a production history more complex than any other Alien project, this conversation explores the depth behind Fincher's often lambasted third outing for Ellen Ripley. But is it misunderstood? We attempt to find out.

PODMETHEUS: AN ALIEN PODCAST is hosted by author and podcaster A. J. Black, exploring all facets of the Alien franchise on the big and small screens.

This time, Mark McManus takes on hosting duties and welcomes back returning guest Kat Hughes, to chat about Predator: Badlands, the 3rd in the series from director and co-writer Dan Trachtenberg, following on from his acclaimed streaming hits Prey and Predator: Killer Of Killers.

This is our first big screen entry in the franchise since 2018's messy flop The Predator - will this family friendly installment bring home the box office goodies, and where does the series go from here? Be prepared for some mild spoilers along the way...

PODMETHEUS: AN ALIEN PODCAST is hosted by author and podcaster A. J. Black, exploring all facets of the Alien franchise on the big and small screens.

This time, Mark McManus takes on hosting duties to continue coverage of Noah Hawley's Alien: Earth TV show, alongside returning guest Dan Owen.

Here they discuss Season One, from its highs to its lows, its delights to its irritations.

The show started off strong, while episode 5 was one of the best pieces of filmed Alien storytelling in the history of the franchise, but did the show stick the landing?
