Our summer retrospective on the Back to the Future franchise continues today with Back to the Future Part II starring Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd.  No beating around the DeLorean here, we really go off topic a ton in today’s podcast.  Matt and Mike talk about space, movie remakes, and the chaos of rioting in the streets on top of COVID-19. Back to the Future Part II is a really fun film that takes place in the future, well technically the past now, and tries to explain some of the paradoxes and problems if time travel was possible.  Altering history even a little bit can drastically change the world you have come to know and love.  It is fun watching flying cars, flying skateboards, and the occasional flying punch.  Did we mention Michael J.
