Chapters
The hosts discuss the opening scene where Arnold Schwarzenegger, as Ben Richards, refuses to fire on civilians, leading to his imprisonment and framing for the massacre. They question the government's motive and whether such incidents are commonplace in this dystopian future.
  • Ben Richards is framed for a massacre he didn't commit.
  • The government uses him as a scapegoat to control the population.
