The Question One

August 23

53 mins

Episode Description

We've done something slightly different this time.

After the last episode of The Variety Show with Tom and Rob saw Tom and Rob answer five questions about themselves, we've decided to continue the experiment over here on the Untitled Sci-Fi Show.

This time, Rob is asking the questions — and Tom has absolutely no idea what he's letting himself in for.

Across five questions we talk about the games we can never get bored of, the films we'll happily watch again and again, things that everyone else seems to love but we absolutely don't, where we'd go if we had a time machine, and finally which fictional universe we'd choose to live in.

Naturally, things don't stay sensible for very long.

We get deep into The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Banjo-Kazooie, Tomb Raider, The Lord of the Rings, Constantine, Toy Story, Star Trek, Pokémon, The Terminator, Jurassic Park and plenty more.

There's also a lengthy rant about reality TV, a rather passionate explanation of why football isn't heroic, some surprisingly depressing thoughts about travelling back to the 1990s, and an extended investigation into whether Pokémon trainers are basically running an underground animal-fighting racket.

So basically, exactly the sort of intellectual discussion you've come to expect from us.

This is Part 2 of our Five Questions special. If you haven't heard Part 1 yet, head over to The Variety Show with Tom and Rob and listen to the first five questions before joining us here.

And don't worry — we'll be back to our normal sci-fi nonsense soon enough.
