Erik and Christopher react and discuss the recent announcement of Mark Mothersbaugh as composer for the original score to the upcoming Thor: Ragnarok.  They go on to have a lengthy discussion about Michael Giacchino for Doctor Strange and a firey discussion about Johan Johannsson for Blade Runner 2.  Lastly, they take a quick dive into some of history's other "unexpected composer assignments" that would have rocked the Internet, had it existed. Soundcast Stereo episodes are two channel, 30 (ish) minute conversations about a single topic from the world of film, television and game soundtracks.
