Get ready for paranoia on the screen and a lot of confusion from Mary on the podcast as Nic and Mark try, and fail, to help Mary understand what happened in this complicated update adaptation of the John W. Campbell novella ‘Who Goes There?’. So, get your blood tests ready and put on some warm clothes because the B-Movie Cast is heading for Outpost 31 and a rendezvous with “The Thing”.
