A new Matrix movie is coming out in December. In light of that, here is the episode where we discuss the original 1999 movie. You can watch it online on HBOMax, Amazon, or Youtube.

Content warnings for strong language, discussions of transphobia, and an unfortunate number of Catholic jokes

We reference or spoil: Avatar: The Last Airbender, Joseph Campbell‘s “The Hero’s Journey“, the Bible, Lewis Carroll‘s Through the Looking Glass, The Wizard of Oz, The Lord of the Rings, Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, Cabin in the Woods, Wachowski‘s Speed Racer, Sinfest (“The Sisterhood 7“), Wheaton’s Law, “soft apocalypse“, Parks and Recreation; John Wick; so so much queer theory
