Mr. Roboto
Description
In this episode Tom and Ty sit down for a late-night session and attempt to decipher the strangeness that is Styx's 1983 sci-fi classic, Mr. Roboto. With their beer goggles on, they prove that they are just men whose circumstances went beyond their control: Tom flees for Panama on a horse with no name on the run from those Damn Yankees while Ty searches for a heart of gold, only to discover his moonlight desires. Join the humanoids as they try to unpack whether machines will save our lives or if they dehumanize. Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto!
