Geek Bytes Episode 31 - Outside The Wire

In honour of The Falcon and The Winter Solider arriving on Disney+, Rich and Stu are reviewing Outside the Wire with Anthony Mackie.  Is his portrayal of an Android Super Solider a sign of things to come, or just more fodder for the streaming war machine? Find out as they discuss the believability of a dystopian eastern block swarming with US 'saviours', how robotic 'Gumps' (unrelated to Forrest) have been integrated into their efforts, and the philosophy of Mackie's human faced proto Skynet as only they can.  It's all here in the latest episode of Geek Bytes - available on all good podcasting apps. https://archive.org/download/outside-the-wire/Outside%20the%20Wire.mp3
