TPToA Podcast 409 – Mountainhead
Description
Mountainhead
In this episode we check in with the billionaire class and see how they are doing! Turns out: Not great. With Mountainhead; the new film by Jesse Armstrong, we take a fly on the wall peek into the lives of 4 tech bros who have infinitely more money than sense, and somehow even less emotional intelligence that either. It’s a tough watch and feels a little too close to current events at times. but we made sure to give it a rigorous once over.
We also check out Predator: Killer of Killers the new Predator film from Prey director Dan Trachtenberg in this podcast, and see what other shows we have been entertaining ourselves with.
The whole team in on board too, with Dion and Quinny playing the role of Tech Bros with ZERO money with Jill and Peta as the long suffering voices of reason.
Check it out – we promise there’s no AI in this AT ALL.
Synopsis
A group of billionaire friends get together against the backdrop of a rolling international crisis.
