Another Lousy Millennium is a weekly fan podcast where brothers Luciano and Gabriele Cheng summarize, analyze and quote Futurama episode by episode.

Gabe has spent his life talking about movies and TV, and now with Another Lousy Millennium, someone is finally listening. He left a successful career as a high school teacher and moved to Los Angeles to pursue his passion for writing and entertainment. His first webcomic titled “For Molly” is published for free on formollycomic.com. He’s an avid pizza enthusiast, he’s surprisingly good at pub trivia and he finds inspiration from the films of Kevin Smith and the novels of Neil Gaiman.

Luke is an engineer, tech entrepreneur and lifelong apostle of all things science fiction. Now with Another Lousy Millennium, he has a chance to share that passion with his brother Gabe and the awesome Futurama community. When he’s not pursuing his first love (working too much), Luke is known to travel, swim, and be conclusively beaten in pub trivia by his brother Gabe. Luke draws inspiration from the likes of Isaac Asimov, Benjamin Franklin, Elon Musk, and his family (both numerous and belligerent) who are OK most of the time.

Episode Synopsis: Fry and Leela try to have some private time, but no matter where they go someone gets in their way. Finally they pay for a secluded romantic getaway, which turns out to be even worse.

On this show:

  • Luke and Gabe discuss the world building and return of some amazing characters all the way from pre-cancellation
  • Gabe articulates how the plot of this episode is similar to “Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark”
  • Gabe does his impressions of Sean … who’s breakup with Leela was totally mutual
  • Gabe and Luke debate for like 15 minutes about the balance between realistic character interactions and world building vs sitcom story structure and conflict
  • The purpose of this podcast is not to rewrite Futurama … so Gabe restrains himself and only does that like … twice.
