Well, Jason and Nick tried to make it work but unfortunately, this is going to be the last episode for the unforeseeable future. So let's go out with a bang and discuss the MOTHER of all time time travel flicks, Primer. A movie so confusing, science can't even figure it out!

Jason and Nick travel back to 1995 to join the Army of the 12 Monkeys, discussing every aspect of this film and pondering why people in the future are terrible at sending people back in time.

Jason and Nick peel back the layers to Rian Johnson's 2012 film "Looper" and discuss the many intricate plots happening and ponder if the movie itself is a paradox.

When is a time travel movie NOT a time travel movie? When it's 2013's Coherence, a super low budget trippy film about a dinner party going astray. But does Nick and Jason like it, despite not being super time travel related?

The Time Scale returns with your hosts Jason and Nick, a slight change to the format of the podcast, and then a discussion on a 2015 low budget indie flick featuring Michael Ironside and not much else.

Despite what Tony Scott, the director of this episodes film, wanted, Jason and Nick get super deep and nerdy with "Deja Vu", talking about branching timelines and two versions of yourself running around. Also, Nick doesn't trust Jason and decides to take action!
