Retroist Short Circuit Podcast

Welcome to the Retroist Short Circuit Podcast. On today’s show, I talk all about the 1980s Sci-Fi comedy hit movie, Short Circuit. I discuss the pre-production, the writers/directors, the cast and cameos, production, and much much more.

While this movie does have some elements that are dated, it is still one of the best movies about a robot that gains sentience. Johnny 5 IS ALIVE!
