We’re heading to the Satellite of Love to revisit Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie —the cult classic that brought the beloved TV series to the big screen.

Then it’s time for one of our most fun drafts yet: drafting the greatest geniuses in pop culture, featuring both fictional brainiacs and real-life masterminds. From iconic movie and TV characters to world-changing innovators, we debate who belongs among the smartest minds of all time. Support our show and join our Patreon !
