The Debate

An assortment of satirical podcasts bridge the worlds together.

Overview

The Debate pairs an assortment of satirical podcasts for each movie: one in which characters argue from different perspectives inside the movie's world, and one in which the hosts contest the psychology of the film from our perspective, where the listeners can pick a side but don't have to stay there.
