"This Conversation Can Serve No Purpose Anymore" Hal 9000 | Sci-Fi Speeches by The Speech Guys published on 2022-07-02T16:07:31Z What happens when the host of the episode loses contact with America and the Speech Guys while in Europe? Nothing good. Ross, Matt, and Mike struggle to wrap their heads around Hal and the famous speech to his astronaut passenger, Dave, from Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film, "2001: A Space Odyssey". Hear remnants from a 25-minute tangent into Bill Barr and COVID, consider how one truly learns about the stars ("Do you learn more about the stars by going outside and looking at them or researching them in a book?") and which Speech Guys might struggle to disconnect Hal. If you still have some whiskey left in your glass when the episode finishes up, hang around for Matt's recitation of his original poem entitled, "Sculpture", in the post-credits scene.
