In this special roundtable edition I talked with both Pearse Redmond and Aaron Franz about the film Wrong is Right- a 1982 political conspiracy thriller/black comedy.  We looked at the inevitable intelligence connections to the film, its weird melange of prophetic memes and predictive programming, its very strange psychological techniques (which the dialogue even refers to at points) and try to figure out what the purpose and meaning behind the film really is.  This is quite an anarchic and at time very funny conversation, though I strongly recommend you watch the film before watching/listening to this episode.
