Operation Kino 107: Spring Breakers Breakdown And Sci-Fi That's Almost Great

This week special guest Scott Beggs joins us for a very serious and not at all sexy conversation about Spring Breakers and the cultural trope of the teen girl meltdown. Plus tidbits about The Sapphires and Andrew Niccol's sci-fi chops, remembrances of childhood toys gone by, and a lightning round question inspired by Tyler Perry's Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor.
