The iconic science fiction franchise that popularized the phrase "I'll be back" has continued to return to cinemas even though they are doomed to repeat themselves. Time travel, themes of destiny and fate, strong female protagonists, and disappointing sequels are all things now commonly associated with the "Terminator" franchise.

The intro and outro music was created by Cackles and Jeremy Eckert. We thank them for their generous support of this podcast.

Sindarin, Klingon, Dathroki, Na'vi, Wookie and more! Join us as we discuss the concept of constructed languages (conlangs for short) in fiction. As fantasy and science fiction have grown as genres of entertainment, so have the opportunities for creators to invent new languages to inform their worlds.

Watch out for that tree! How did this short lived 1960's animated parody of Tarzan turn into a live-action comedy for kids that introduced a generation to making fun of movies, breaking the fourth wall, and the British humour of John Cleese. Grab a vine and swing on by as we discuss "George of the Jungle".
