David is joined in the nice new clean studio by Jacob Oberman as we discuss the film and tech news of the week.

In tech news: A genetically modified virus powers iPods, Microsoft pirates software, Stephen Conroy under fire for bad choice of words and The FBI is called in to investigate “Wolverine” leak.

Film news includes: Nicolas Cage forced to sell his castle, New Line Cinema casts the new Freddy Krueger, Dustin Hoffman wants more real science in Science Fiction films and Harry Potter star charged by police for his pot farm!

Katrina Smith joins David for a long, deep analysis of the new Alex Proyas film “Knowing”.

And to finish this episode off, Jacob and David profile film composer James Horner.

As always this episode carries an explicit tag due to small amounts of bad language.
