Ben and Rob poke ‘The Social Network’, David Fincher’s 2010 telling of the founding of Facebook during Mark Zuckerberg’s time at Harvard. Starring Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield and Justin Timberlake, ‘The Social Network’ won three of the eight Academy Awards it was nominated for, with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross’ incredible soundtrack beating Hans Zimmer’s ‘Inception’ to the Oscar.

But nearly fifteen years later, did David Fincher accurately predict the digital hellscape we would all be living in? How did this get written in spite of Facebook flatly denying any involvement? How can Rob find this tale of greed and obsession uplifting? And what is lifelong B-Movie Horror Fan Ben doing even watching this biographical drama about social media?!
