We take a break from Mike White May with the second in a series of bonus episodes leading up to the release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga with a look at the second film in the original trilogy Mad Max 2: Road Warrior. Midnight Viewing's Father Malone joins the episode to talk Lord Humungus, Bruce Spence, and Miller's post-apocalyptic world.

Directed also by George Miller and starring Gibson once again, the film finds Max wandering the now post-apocalyptic wasteland of Australia looking to keep his V-8 Pursuit Special tanked up and full of fuel. Along with his trusty Australian Sheperd, he must help a civilization located in an oil refinery defend themselves from the menacing Lord Humungus.
