For this episode of A Cosmic Void we dive headlong into the meta-comedy that took Oscar gold...Birdman.

Musician and podcaster Connor Lachenbruch joins the podcast to discuss the Damien Chazelle's masterpiece: Whiplash. We break down every corner of the movie and examine how accurate it is, J.K. Simmons' spectacular Oscar winning performance, what the roots of the movie were, and a big 2021 release that clearly drew inspiration from it.
Amazing actor Galen Howard comes on the show to discuss the Paul Verhoeven classic, Robocop! We talk about how this violent satire is one of the smartest and most entertaining movies out there.
