They set a timer so that the time machine will turn on automatically. They can scurry away, hide in a hotel room for six hours. When when the machine turns on, there their future selves emerge and can interact with the world from the future. Then they go get back in the machine and then come out as the other people.
First, it’s the return of the annual drunken Thanksgiving segment! Tamler and based wicked stepmom Christina Hoff Sommers fight about JFK, systematic racism, corporations, and how to pronounce valium. (We find more common ground than usual though on Covid and Havana Syndrome.) Then podcast auteur Barry Lam joins David and Tamler to talk about David Lewis on time travel, the new season of Barry’s excellent podcast Hi-Phi Nation, and then a deep dive on maybe the best time travel movie of all time - Shane Carruth's mind-melting cult classic "Primer."
Special Guests: Barry Lam and Christina Hoff Sommers.
