We Had the World But We Ate It: Soylent Green
Manage episode 361597230 series 3468382
Patrick presents to Alex a couple of paranoid looks into overpopulation: the 1966 novel Make Room! Make Room! by Harry Harrison and its Hollywood adaptation, Soylent Green. This episode is all about stepping on faces, untasty crackers, and getting scooped by the scoops.
Theme Song is Satellites by Swenny.
