Episode 69 - My Bowman's Back (2010: The Year We Make Content)
After being trapped for months, Brad has finally cracked step 10 and escaped the Zero Gravity toilet, and the team's back to celebrate the return of our favorite steely-eyed missile man... Keir Dullea! And the actor who plays him, David Bowman! Though Dullea's interviews and Kubrick's notes (episode 17), the two identities blur between the extraterrestrial diplomat and the well-preserved doughboy who portrays him. And Bowman has evolved - in every sense - when he arrives in "2010," through Clarke's vision and Hyams' directing and screenwriting choices. What really happened to Bowman since he went through the stargate in "2001"? The differences between the "2010" book and film both in the details and the larger story implications. His relationship with Betty, and he wisdom he imparts to Floyd. Keir Dullea in 1984 as an actor and a person and how it informs a wiser Bowman. How Clarke and Hyams envision Bowman's transformation. The amazing Oscar-nominated makeup by Michael Westmore and the legacy of the Westmores. Plus: Brownian movement, Connect Four, and Betty's fabulous apartment (follow along with the pictures on the episode page!)

FREE PATREON GIFT - "Destination Space" (1959) Commentary
For this festive Patreon bonus, it's another first reaction commentary of a movie/TV show we've never seen. This month, we're not sure which it is. It's Rip Van Ronkle's "Destination Space!" The effects look just about as real as that name but wow, are there some cool - and familiar - designs just waiting to be made into toys! The cool footage may be from George Pal's "Conquest of Space," but this precursor to modern sci-fi has little kernels of just about everything we've seen in the last 65 years, but with more toupees...

FREE PATREON GIFT - "2061" Introduction and Chapters 1 & 2 - Arthur C. Clarke (July '25 Book Club with Eli Schwab)
The party never stops at Clavius Base on Patreon, where we put out an extra hour + of extra episodes AND a community fanzine every month! For this free holiday bonus, join us for the inaugural "2061" Book Club episode, co-hosted by our friend Cosmic Lion Comics publisher Eli Schwab! We'll be almost nearing the end of the book this coming January, so here's your chance to start the journey and catch up with us so you can join in with your own feedback message or voice recording! In this episode from July, we introduce the book, look at the first two chapters and examine author Arthur's author's note, as well as the all-important table of contents. (Gotta be thorough.) Does this book only exist because of Clarke's comet consternation? Is instigating a second sun for the solar system, peace on Earth, and the promise of life on a sister moon sufficient accomplishment to get trashed and fall off a balcony judgment-free? We're asking the tough questions on Patreon. And even if it ages us to older than 100, we don't look a day over 65... Join PATREON for more!
