In this episode, we revisit some past guests (Zoltan Istvan, Calum Chace, Scott Santens, Nic Zito) and dig once more into the topic of what happens when automation can do all of the jobs? Or even a large minority of jobs? Are we asking the hard questions about the future of our economy, of our very civilization? Recorded 5/15/2016.

How we interact with media, content, and each other is undergoing a major change. And yet old players seem to be reasserting themselves. Is nostalgia and comfort short-changing our brave new world?

MEDIA REVIEW: Dark Net (Showtime). On this episode, we take a dive into Showtime's new show Dark Net. We've mentioned it on the show before a couple times, and this time we talk about the entirety of the show's recent run on Showtime and some of the issues and subcultures that it examines. From electromagnetic sensitivity disorders, to dating Gameboy avatars, from cyberBDSM to smart drugs, Dark Net takes a wide-ranging look at the darker side of the Net. Recorded 5/1/2016.
