Alien.
And Greg, in case people don't know, the thing they have found in outer space that will bring great profitability.
Could it be a killer alien?
Yes.
Double-mouthed, acid-blooded xenomorph.
You want to make a xenomorph sound?
Can you do xenomorph?
Excellent.
Excellent.
All right.
So we've been talking about a fake company this whole time.
The Weyland-Yutani Corporation runs through the Alien franchise, and it is certainly a caricature of a futuristic conglomerate.
But what Greg and I will propose today is that it is, in fact, the perfect vehicle to look at how we are living our lives today as workers and laborers in the modern economy.
Dun, dun, dun!
Hello, and welcome to Planet Money.
I'm Kenny Malone.
And I'm Greg Rosalski.
The movie Alien is set 96 years in a future where a single gargantuan company controls basically everything and employs seemingly everyone.
This proves to be bad for workers, because they have no other options, of course, but then even worse for workers when they are forced to onboard their company's newest team member slash profit center, which then, you know, basically eats all of them except for one.
It's pretty scary sci-fi stuff, but you know what's scarier, Kenny?
