Show-notes:
3:50: Pretty sure Steven will suggest “Fully Armed and Operational Emotional Battlestation” as a title
4:00: Let me tell you about the last time I went Full Force. (Actually only around 50 minutes.)
21:11: Go and find out the origin of based for yourself on knowyourmeme.
25:55: Invasion of the Bodysnatchers might have Bodysnatched Kiyan. By the way, I was wrong about there being a movie called The Bodysnatchers. That’s actually what the book the movie Invasion of the Bodysnatchers is based on is called. There’s a previous movie called The Body Snatcher though, based on the short story The Body Snatcher.
1:04:36: Jon Pertwee wasn’t in Catweazle, but according to an unsourced bit of trivia from IMDB, he was meant to have been in it or something. I have no clue how I knew this.
