Ep. 23 [Film]: Purple Corn, Predators, Plunder, and the Pull of the Streets

This week on Out of Office Chat... Edwin has a hot purple corn drink in hand and a Halloween state of mind. In this episode, he'll take you through some seriously wild territory. Edwin dives into the Predator franchise, from cult classics to the unexpectedly impressive Prey and the upcoming Badlands. Then it’s off to the fjords with a crash course in Viking history and Norse mythology, where we learn that “going Viking” is more than just cosplay with axes. And to close, things get real. Edwin revisits "18 with a Bullet", a raw, gripping documentary on the 18th Street gang in El Salvador. It’s intense, raw, and unfiltered.

In today’s episode, we explore the incredible true story of Thad Roberts, a NASA intern with dreams of becoming the first human to walk on Mars.

Inspired by Ben Mezrich's Sex on the Moon, we’ll walk through Thad’s journey from promising NASA recruit to an unlikely criminal, unraveling how ambition and the thrill of risk led him down an unforgettable path.
