Wherein Andy and Justice ressurect the conversation of immortality by looking at the the 1986 film Highlander and the China Miéville and Keanu Reeves 2024 novel The Book of Elsewhere. What is the psychological nature of being an immortal? It seems to be something people wish for, and yet it is often depicted as something that inevitably leads to severe depression and a desire for death. We also discuss the curious situation of a China Miéville co-authorship and his recyclying of the transporter problem from Star Trek. Topics range from Christopher Lambert's bizzare acting choices to the 1980s' fascination with lightning and sparks to Keanu Reeves' refusal to shed the John Wick appearance. Will every character he plays from now on look the same?
