“Because what right do I have to not be happy. I have everything.”


Another episode of the Arts Union Science podcast rolls into the station; and it’s right on time, too . . . shocking. Join your corresponding author (Tyler D. R. Vance) and this week’s first author (Aidan Paskinov) as they explore the twisty-turny psychological thriller: Nocturnal Animals. Along the way, they’ll marvel at the magnificent Michael Shannon, question which version of Jake Gyllenhaal is hotter (i.e. young and intense, or old and grizzled), and record a completely normal Conclusion section in which nothing strange happens.


WARNING: Nocturnal Animals deals with themes of sexual assault and violence towards women. If you find these topics to be triggering, perhaps sit this one out. There are plenty of other episodes that don’t require similar warnings.
