On the eve of the premiere of a new HBO series, Colin takes us on a vacation to the original Westworld (1973) and we end up on the run from killer robots! Wealthy vacationers visit a Western-themed amusement park when an unexplained malfunction causes the previously benign humanoid robots, who populate the park, to go on a homicidal rampage. Listen as we dig deep into the the perils of virtual reality; sex and murder as recreation; witness the birth of both The Terminator and Michael Myers in Westworld's gunslinger; and uncover more on this week's exciting show!
