Christopher Nolan's space epic Interstellar reveals itself as a profound meditation on parenthood when viewed through the lens of fatherhood, with the film's spectacular visuals and complex time concepts serving as backdrop to a deeply human story about legacy and love.

• Pat Junior and Lxnny return to discuss their shared love for Interstellar from new perspectives
• Seeing the film as a father changes everything – it's less about space and more about affecting your child's future
• "Once you're a parent, you're the ghost of your children's future" emerges as a central theme
• Christopher Nolan as a "visual poet" who carefully crafts his surrealistic imagery
• Hans Zimmer's score creates perfect emotional resonance through percussion and vintage organ sounds
• The theory of relativity and time as major fascinations for both the filmmakers and guests
• Tom versus Murph represent different ways of dealing with the past – being consumed by dust versus learning from it
• Growth is not linear – in filmmaking, parenting, or creative pursuits
• What we leave behind when we're "dust" matters more than global recognition
