Chaos Walking

This week JP will be reviewing Chaos Walking, a new film by Doug Liman. Chaos Walking is a highly anticipated movie starring Daisy Ridley, Tom Holland, and Nick Jonas. Chaos walking is a film adaption of the Chaos Walking novel series by Patrick Ness. The story takes place in a dystopian future where all women are believed to be extinct and men have developed a condition where their thoughts are visibly projected, called “Noise”. This episode serves as the last episode of the first season of the Average Viewer. I will be returning briefly on April 16th, before the beginning of Season 2 in August where I will be joined by a co-host, in addition to the implementation of several new exciting features and material I have been working on for the listeners. Thank you all so much for the support through this first season, and I’m really looking forward to Season 2.
