In this episode of the show, our June Jaunt through Michael Crichton work comes to a close with a discussion on his 1978 medical thriller Coma. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us wonder why this movie wasn’t a bigger hit, whether star power is what Crichton needed, if the movie functions as a feminist metaphor for dismantling the patriarchy, an indictment of a for-profit healthcare model, or both and if it is even remotely acceptable to eat a sandwich during an autopsy.

Tune in and enjoy!
