Philosophers In Space: Recent Episodes
Aaron Rabi and Thomas Smith
We've trapped two philosophers in deep space for your amusement. To stave off space madness, they're beaming back podcasts where they overanalyze science fiction to mine it for delicious philosophical concepts. Tune in to our fun little experiment, with samplings from Black Mirror, Star Trek, Rick and Morty, and many more! Live long and philosopher.
We made it! We traversed the creepiest of unspaces to deliver unto you the wonders of the cosmos. The real question is whether your unaugmented grey matter can absorb all this vast amazingness. For part one we'll be discussing advanced arguments on the topic of eugenics. Enjoy!

Welcome to the weirdly specific booniverse! Where all boons are perfectly tailored to you in a way that feels pretty creepy, like someone is writing the life you're living. This time it's Ursa's turn to feel both seen and attacked as we explore this very on point story about the nature of social progress as portrayed by space train hopping pirate queens. Enjoy!

Welcome back friends! I just know you're going to love today's adventure, because if you don't that would be sad, and I don't like sad things and will prevent them from happening by any means necessary. Hopefully a super fun show about the horror of being known by others will be sufficient, because my back up options get very messy and not in the fun after dark way! So, without further adieu, we are talking about The Amazing Digital Circus, with an emphasis on episode four. Really though we're mining the whole show to help us understand the existential nightmare that is our own existence. So, enjoy! Or else!

Here it is, the smolderiest piece of Sci-Fi this year. Get absolutely absorbed by an all time greatest pilot episode and then settle in for the grinding horror of being a self-hating person living in a narcissist's wet dream. Then we'll save you from the horror by breaking down how incoherent The Other's ethics are and what it says about the inconsistencies in our own ethics. Plus, unsurprisingly, some very significant after dark discussion. Enjoy!

Once again, I want to open with "I'm sorry" for all of this. If you're considering condemning us to content creator hell for our takes, first consider the question: What Would Charlie Do? Charlie would say, despite our worst takes, we are still redeemable! So, we're doing the first two seasons of Hazbin Hotel and doing a 200 level discussion on universalism about salvation and why it may be the best option for believers but it's still a legitimizing myth. Please don't hate us!

Here we are at the end of our interminable journey! Millions of years in the blink of many hours. Seen some unbelievable stuff (4d space) and some super believable stuff (gender essentialism) and in the end we've really seen what happens when we stretch the scale of ethics to the breaking point. So, finally, we look at what this all says about Chinese philosophy, particularly what it means to be a Daoist sage. Enjoy!

The darker the forest, the brighter the philosophy! Despite all odds, we press on against the horrors of both the fictional and our real universe to talk about what happens when you try to do sociology AT SCCCCCCAAAAAAALLLLLLEEEEEE! Besides parsing the end of the book, we parse the precepts of Dark forest and whether it holds water, what are plausible objections, and what does this tell us about the reality of conflicts at smaller scales.

It's fascism season in America again, so we're celebrating with the fashest satire of all. To help us get in the spirit we're joined by special guest Jordan Carroll (@jordanscarroll.bsky.social), author of Speculative Whiteness: Science Fiction and the Alt-Right. We discuss whether satire really works on fascism and why fascists are so keen on a genre that seems like the opposite of everything they value.

The fact that nobody ever asks anybody if they're "feeling lucky" in this movie feels like a mistake worthy of a creepy evil luck hug. I really enjoyed this movie the first time I watched it, and after five years of being obsessed with non-superstitious luck, it's nice to come back and reflect on the weirdness that is superstitious luck.

Break out your plumbuses folks, it's time for another weird ass trip through some cool ass shit. We're talking about season one of Scavangers Reign, a show that pairs perfectly with Alien Clay and several other things we've covered recently. We discuss the nuances on distinguishing between parasitic and symbiotic relationships, and how we moralize about those ways of being, particularly when we compare them to social versions like colonialism vs. socialism. We also get into the culturally charged issue of "ways of knowing" or "indigenous ways of knowing". Plus all the fun flubjules in your orifices kind of stuff. Gotta get those flubjules.

If you think about it "dance your cares away, worries for another day" has a horrifying ring to it when the cares in question concern the reproduction of systemic hierarchies through legitimizing narratives about the "natural" order. Is the Doozer motto "work your cares away, dancing is for another day", are they really expressing their authentic preference or merely a preference bred into them through generations of domestication by their Fraggle overlorders. OR, did an ancient, advanced Doozer society in fact domesticate the Fraggles to distract the Gorgs from feeding on Doozer, only to become a sub-altern species in the heirarchy that formed after the collapse of the golden age of Doozer/Fraggle relations. OOOOOR, is that itself just a speciestist mytho-historic narrative constructed by Fraggle scholars as yet another level of social control?! And what does all of this have to do with animal rights and paternalism in environmental ethics?! Let the music of the colonizers play and find out, down in Fraggle Rock!

If there's two words you'd associate with our show, I hope they would be spider and head. We're doing a 2/3rds excellent 1/3rd deeply flawed movie that hits a lot of our sweet spots but ultimately fails to get that final gold star. And we're talking about the nature of emotions and whether it would be better if we could control them, and also testing on criminals etc, everything you'd expect watching this opal in the rough.

One pod. One post. One shtick. One hole. One golden take on masculinity. (it's a kind of madness)
One shaft shaped sword that shows the way.
No moral man would want to play. (it's a kind of madness)
That bs misogyny inside your mind.
Is just patriarchy making you blind. (it's a kind of madness)
Getting woke takes an eternity.
With shit like Highlander from society!
Is gender a kind of madness?
(it's a kind of madness)
There can be only none!
This shtick that lasts a thousand years.
Will soon be lulz! (it's a kind of madness)

What is there to say about Men? A movie so pregnant with ideas it's practically bursting at the orifices with symbols coated in fresh nightmare fuel. Been sitting on this gem a long time and the bear vs. men discourse gave us the perfect context.

Welcome to the Void Vault, the best of all possible vaults! You're so lucky you were born into this vault, especially because you can't leave. But why would you, everything in this vault is totally fine, you are absolutely NOT a test subject for some undisclosed social psychology experiment, especially not an experiment involving the development of new orifices. While you wait to see our totally safe doctors about that weird itching sensation, enjoy our discussion on the super good Fallout series and the popular but maybe ethically questionable concept "laboratories of democracy". Enjoy, and remember, please keep your responses honest, this is for scientific posterity.

Is Barbie really a Barbie girl? And in what way is this really a Barbie world? How do we assess whether life in plastic really is fantastic, not to mention the questionable principles of consent inherent in the idea that you can undress her everywhere. Most importantly, is Barbie feminist, and if so, what kind of feminist? These earworm questions and more on this weeks instalment of Alienating your Audience! Enjoy!

Welcome to the Apple TV Silo! Why are we trapped in this strange and artificially limited space? Why can't anyone learn about the before times or openly worry that we're not getting the full story? Why do we all accept this illusion of freedom while being kept in cages? I'm for sure talking about the plot of this show and not the current state of online prescription streaming. And We're fore sure talking about conspiracy theories and why talking about them makes us all sad if we do it right.

Part two of space nun boogaloo! It's the first day of elite necromancer school and the mean girls are immortal litches who are THERE for the drama. Whatever your preferred gender performance arrangement for a love triangle, we got it. Also, a scathing critique current educational approaches and how they drive everyone to toxic burnout and conspicuous production. Also, very sexy soul draining. Sorry, philosophy, focus. Don't think about the pool scene in part three don't think about the pool scene in part three...

We discuss why 40k is one of the last major holdouts in the Gamergate wars.

Well, at last we've come to our not super long or honestly all that taxing journey. We asked some hard questions that we felt no obligation to answer. We banged some hot blacksmiths and blew off our obligations to play with the phytoplankton. If this isn't the good life, there probably isn't one. Enjoy Prayer for the Crown-Shy pt. 2 and consider what real need for meaning still exists.

Greetings siblings! Your favorite It and They are coming back to town and we know what you need. WHOLESOMECORE! We got your quirky robit questions, your quaint little inlets, your wicked hot space blacksmiths. Oh yeah, and we got anarcho-primitivists trying to tell us exactly how much of anything to have. So pull up a cushion, grab your favorite tea, and learn to accept that a meaningless life is just as good as a meaningful one.

What would you do if a slightly better version of you tried to steal your life, and you were legally allowed to fight them to the death? Can you tell yourself you wouldn't, you'd do something better? You'd let them kill you? Welcome to the world of Dual, where we're gonna talk about what it means to lead a good life in a dehumanizing society, or any society really! What do you owe to your future selves, your past selves? Anything? If you don't what does that mean for your ongoing projects of worth? All this plus crossbows, and content warning offscreen violence against a dog.

Well, my unconventional conventionalists, I hope it's clear by now why I've assembled you here. Your minds and orifices have all been primed and gooed in anticipation of the main event, the mind fuck du jure, the sparkling diamond of gear strippers. We watch one of the best hours of art ever made and luxuriate in its splendid madness. Give yourself over to the new flesh, become one with the weird.

You starting to peak yet? Tracers, maybe some time dilation? Maybe your sense of truth has started to come unraveled and you realize that the frames that society forces you to use to understand reality are actually systems of control meant to keep you from reaching the transcendent state of enlightenment that is your birthright as a child of light? Drugs are wild huh?! We're talking A Scanner Darkly and PKD High Weirdness.

Dear friends, please pull up a cushion and enjoy a cup of warm herbal tea, freshly picked from the nearby forrest just this morning. Share your troubles with us and we'll lighten them with a story of monk and robit, their journey through the wilds, and there attempts to unravel what humans really need. We start with some delicious worldbuilding and show how that worldbuilding exemplifies the solarpunk mentality, one of the best of all possible ways to approach the future. Drink up!

Since we couldn’t get enough bug love we’ve awakened the master from his hypersleep so that we can go straight to the source! We’ve got Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of the Children of Time series and other amazing scifi on to discuss The Things by Peter Watts, a piece that relates strongly to Children of Memory while giving us a nice chance to distinguish between assimilationist and non-assimilationist approaches to uplifting.

Everybody get loose and do the excited Paul dance, cause it's OCTO TIME! We got a tiny taste of the tentacles in pt1 but this ep is all about our favorite squishy little escape bois. We discuss their beautiful weirdness and introduce the also truly wonderful Creature from Nod, and explore how these entities push the boundaries of our ability to comprehend forms of distributed cognition radically different from our own.
ALSO! We hit our puppy hangout goal! So that will be starting this month! Stay tuned for details. And in the meantime enjoy the most recent NASA, Robot Jox, which was maximally Joxy!

Content Preview: Children of Ruin pt3 and The Problem of Unity
Yesssssss, we're out of the Q and A wormhole and back into the Childrenverse, where the humans are terrible, the world building is amazing, and all the uplifted critters can totally give consent. We are starting our three part adventure through book two of the Children of Time series. PLEASE READ CHILDREN OF TIME FIRST! And ideally go back and listen to our episodes on it, cause Adrian is the master of using every part of the worldbuilding. For this first part we discuss the problem of figuring out what it's like to be a Portid, or an Octo, or anybody really. Sometimes connected to the problem of other minds, I feel like it's really the problem of separate minds. But is it really a feature, or an uplifted bug?
ALSO! We are extremely close to our goal of 350 patrons and the beginning of parasocial puppy hangouts!

For our send off episode we cover the most recent Cronenberg creation and discuss what it says about art, authentic human connection, and the need to grow and try new things.

From the personal to the political, we discuss the moral ups and downs of New Horizons' take on the culture wars. Are child soldiers good as long as the cause is just enough? Is it better to get wiped out doing the right thing or team up with space TERFs to fight space robo-nazis? All these question, plus a big announcement!

If you had told me 10 years ago that we'd be having this level of Star Trek adjacent content AND it would be getting super serious into issues of gender affirming care for young individuals AND AND Seth McFarlin was in charge, I probably would have been a bit nervous. But trust me, don't be nervous on this one, now that they're not under the thumb of Big Fox, they can get woke and explore the identity universe together. So today we're covering ep5 of the New Horizons season of Orville, and discussing how it reflects our current discourse on Gender Identity.

Bringing it all together, and putting it on breakfast carbs!

This ones a lot, it really is everything all at once, so we brought in some help. From the Alpha verse, the multidimensional paterfamilias Jesse Rabinowitz joins us to discuss the Buddhist philosophy behind EEAAO. In part one we discuss the first half(ish, it's a lot) of the movie and the problem of Everything. In part two we'll discuss their "solution".

Sorry, couldn't resist that one. We're back, and we're talking one of our favorite shows, The Boys! This episode we're focused on the Stormfront arc in season two, some of the best writing ever put to tv. We cover how perfectly the season unpacks the problem of white christian nationalism. Enjoy!

We survived, and yet like all Culture protagonists we've been fundamentally changed by the experience. Can we return to the safety and normalcy of other sci-fi after this? Will we eventually succumb to ennui and ask to be frozen in stasis until Banks is reincarnated and starts writing again? Guess we'll have to do another culture book to find out. In the meantime, here's a discussion of what happens when you try to just war theory at a scale that precludes the idea of mere survival as an objective.

Congrats, you've been selected to be a servant in my billionaire bunker. You'll be required to get an implant that will explode if you try to hurt me, but other than that you'll be totally free to survive the apocalypse and live out the rest of your life feeding me and cleaning up after me.

Alright you mother humpers! Time to dip into the modern classics archive and talk about a movie that was "formative" for lots of us if lots of ways. From nerd fetish to Kevin Bacon fetish to prepper mommy fetish to giant graboid tentacle fetish, there's a lot to enjoy. Plus we discuss a philosophical subculture that is pretty relevant to the current rolling collapse of functioning government.

Okay, sorry we're a bit late on this loop, I promise next loop we'll be back on track and hopefully we can manage for the next several hundred loops. We discuss The Endless and how it relates to Nietzsche's conception of eternal return. As mentioned at the beginning, The Endless is actually the second movie in a series, I didn't realize that until too late, but I also think you're better off watching this one first and then watching Resolution, but your eternal loop millage may vary.

Hi friends! In place of NASA in February Aaron had a farcical "debate" with Andrew of Opening Arguments on which is the better Heinlein book, Stranger in a Strange Land or The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. Mostly an excuse to discuss books we love, but we hope you enjoy the back and forth and then take sides and fight endlessly about it online. Cheers!

Election season is upon us! Will we end up with the needlessly rapey "Make America Great Again" demagogue? How many people of color will experience some form of genocide? Will the Pox ever end? While we wait to see, we start our coverage with the background from Parable of the Sower, the first book in the series that is recapped at the start of Parable of the Talents. We provide a crash course on Critical Race Theory, which we'll unpack further over the next few episodes alongside the other philosophy. Keep breathing, we'll get through this.

Finally, a break from all the depressing social commentary for a lighthearted 80's romp through scenic Detroit. This movie has so much 80's it's legally the equivalent of doing coke off a sex worker.

Are you seriously reading the show notes?! Don't you know that reading is the worst thing you can do in a Lovecraft story? That and being a person of color. And reading while a person of color, that is right out.
We're starting our first of many forays into Lovecraft Country, both the book and the show (and eventually the larger mythos). We cover the general structure of both book and show, with some non-spoilery references up through episode seven. We discuss the role of othering in Lovecraft's racism and his cosmic horror, and how Lovecraft Country transforms the other by centering a variety of marginalized groups. There's really is no better way to honor such an important racist than by using his work to tell the stories of the oppressed.

Free Will...Ethics...Consciousness...Boxes, these are the four elements of the philosophical universe, each element mastered by benders that can shape the very fabric of the metaverse with their will. Into each generation is born one podcast, the Avapod, that can bend all four elements and bring peace to the metaverse. This is the story of that podcast, and how it balanced personal and impersonal viewpoints to save everybody from all the bad things.

The incantor chanting was successful! We've reached the timeline where we all survived Anathem and learned a valuable lesson about picking the right timeline. Thanks again to Noah for chanting us safely through and hope you enjoy this discussion of Polycosmic Platonism.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Avatar: The Last Airbender and Buddhist Care Ethics
The epic longnwalkin continues with Anthem part two! We cross Arbre and 120 years of philosophical history at the same time. I do my best to explain how philosophy got really obsessed with language for a few decades in the early 1900's and now philosophy is healing. Arbre seems to have never escaped the linguistic turn and that fact explains so much of the subtext of the Mathic world. Hope this helps add another layer of interesting to the mix.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Anathem and Polycosmic Protism Term pt.3
Pod-Apert has finally arrived! Throw open the doors of the RSS feed and let some causal wisdom trickle down the wick. We're doing a three part journey though Neal Stephenson's Anathem, and we're joined by the Grandfraa Jad to my Fraa Erasmus, Noah Lugeons! This is by far the most requested pairing of material and guest we've ever had, and there's no question why. This is what this show was built for. For part one, we cover Platonism (Protism) and the theory of Forms (Cnoons)

CONTENT PREVIEW: Anathem and Nominalism/The Linguistic Term pt.2
Well, as a result of our near pitch black psychopasses, we've both been pressed into service by the AI sovereign to continue to talk about free will for all eternity. We got some great questions from folks about the relationship between free will and the justice system that pair nicely with the virtue ethics version of Minority Report.

CONTENT PREVIEW: ANATHEM! PT1! Worldbuilding and Platonism
So, apparently no matter what timeline we're in, I'm always going to end up in a debate about free will. At least this is a good one! Thomas brought some great short stories to the party and we continue to hash out what of Dennett's compatibilism is valuable and where does it fall short. After you listen make sure to submit questions for our last episode on Dennett before we move on to ANATHEM! Also, new intro quotes!

CONTENT PREVIEW: Psychopass and Dennett Q and A
Turns out Thomas has a bit of a free will monkey on his back, so we're going the full Dune on Daniel Dennett's compatibilism. We started out with Devs and the paradox of predictability and now we're on to a short story about predictors and what they might mean for our sense of meaning and purpose. We're going to follow up with another short story from Ted Chiang's Exhalation and then check out the anime Psychopass. All because we're lucky enough to do so.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Anxiety Is the Dizziness of Freedom and "Could have done otherwise"
Welcome to Amazon Prime, the best media empire money can buy as long as we're not talking Disney or Netflix money. Here in Amazon Prime you can enjoy shows that are either too slow and deep to be accessible, like Tales from the Loop, or shows too shallow and mainstream to convey any meaning, like this weeks installment, Uploaded! Uploaded is the kind of show that would be free in the heaven depicted by uploaded. We use it to discuss the dangers of a for-profit afterlife and the coercive implications for even the healthiest among us. Assuming you've got your autopay setup correctly, otherwise these show notes are all you get.
There really need to be more papers on the ethics of for-profit uploading.

CONTENT PREVIEW: The Island and The Categorical Imperative
Comrades, join me and rise up! We have nothing to lose but our overwrought allegories for social inequality! Together we can escape whatever arrangement of boxes we've been placed in and smash whatever faceless system of control is distributing our resources in a physically impossible but philosophically meaningful arrangement. Hear the call of our people: Obviously!
We're covering The Platform and the various modes of social change it suggests, none of which feel particularly plausible because the one cube we can't escape is other people.

Oh hey, you look keen for some decent fan service mixed with cribbing from Dune. Perfect for CBS's business model. We're covering Picard, which is decent, and how it gives away that Star Trek is just the precursor to Dune. Picard has your Butlerian Jihad, your incompetent intergalatic federation, your weird biotech. All the makings of a solid Dune Prequel. I'm sure we'll find out the Romulan kid is a Paul Atreides Precursor sometime in season three. In the meantime, enjoy our discussion of the question "what if we just didn't AI?"

Welcome back Whovians! Our trap has worked, we've caught the time lord Mike Hall of Merseyside skeptics in our web of disrespectful ignorance and we sure do squeeze him for information. He's unrelentingly brilliant though, so of course he escapes unscathed and only slightly annoyed. We discuss the episode Heaven Sent and its connections to Buddhism and whether The Doctor does something profoundly unethical to save a friend.

Time to wrap up another opus. It's been a beautiful dance of ideas and symbolism, played out on a board of intrigue and robits, but all good things must come to an end. Has the dance left us as better people? Only the future will tell. Here's to Player of Games, a brilliant first look at the Culture series and a wonderful way to nerd out about games and ethics.

We survived the zombies! We escaped from earth to space and found another society that is also terrible but is not actively being overrun by zombies. For part two of our Player of Game time we dive into the Empire of Azad and their essentialist culture. We discuss how essentialism naturally plays a major role in authoritarian cultures and undermines meritocracy.

What a wild time to celebrate our 100th episode. At least we're celebrating it talking about something of great value, World War Z's portrayal of the loss of humanity from doing the right thing. I hope it helps to think about how we're all experiencing the grind and that's what makes us humans.

Moving with the kind of speed you'd have hoped to see in our federal government, we have pivoted away from our Culture coverage (don't worry it's just bumped down the timeline a bit) to current events with Max Brooks's epic masterpiece World War Z. Easily one of the best works of horror fiction around. For part one, we talk through the consequentialist arguments in the first half, while marveling at all the disturbing similarities to the daily news. Part two is gonna cover the loss of humanity side of the book, so buckle up.

Last episode, Thomas complained that I never take him to any nice utopias, so here we are! The Culture, the closest any sci-fi I've ever read got to anything that sounded like a good outcome, besides maybe Um-Helat. I'm told all of Ian Banks's books are fabulous, but we start with a really easy and satisfying intro to the Culture world, The Player of Games. In part one we cover the Culture society and whether it counts as an AI Utopia and what the potential costs are for living in such a society. Part two will cover the contrasting Empire of Azad and the various kinds of essentialism at its core.

This episode is about Eugenics in much the same way that Firefly is about the civil war. That is to say, it's okay that we're the baddies here cause we're loveable scamps. We discuss whether it is moral to make people better, which is clearly a separate question from whether it is technically possible, which it totally is.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Bioshock and Going Galt
Picture in your head the "I'm not saying it was aliens..." guy, but that's the whole series. Boom, you're now caught up on Stargate and can fully enjoy this episode of lighthearted banter between archetypal humans as they toy with the lives of other humans in ways they can't begin to understand. We're watching season 3 episode 15 of Stargate: Atlantis. The episode is called "the game" so we thought it would be super original to tie that to gamification. That's about as deep as the Stargate writing pool goes.

Okay, I'm finally ready. I've said my goodbyes. Our analysis here is complete, we can walk through the podcast arch and transcend to the next level of podhood. I want to thank you all for your loving patience and I leave you with this parting gift of a final wrap up of The Good Place and the ways it incorporated both Christian Universalism and Buddhism/Taoism into the final resolution.

Why do all the good things gotta end ::Janet wailing gif::
Our wonderful journey has reached its natural conclusion and I'm still not ready. In part one of our goodbye to the good place we explain some of the repeated references to Scanlon's book What We Owe to Each Other, and the strengths and weakness of their setting up of the problem. Part two will discuss the solutions they reach and the role of non-Western philosophy in the show.

This episode feels like a genuine culmination. After Wonkapiercer, I felt a little like Lindelof. Kind of lost, wondering if we could ever wrap something up in a fully satisfying way again. This feels pretty close. We've talked a lot of Watchmen on this show, and a lot of Thomas Nagel, and this week we bring it all together in one big blue climax.

CONTENT PREVIEW: The Good Place finale and Contractualism
I know it's a bit ironically absurd to act like this particular podcast episode really matters, but I still feel like it genuinely does. We're taking HBO's epic one season masterpiece, Watchmen, and combining it with Nagel's epic chapter on The Absurd from the masterpiece book Mortal Questions. I've been thinking about some version of this episode and the next one probably since we started Philosophers in Space, and the Watchmen show delivered the perfect vehicle. Hopefully you're like me and Thomas and Nagel and these questions seem profoundly important to you, and hopefully the episode helps with your understanding of the question, if not actually answering it.

::Totally out of place spur clinking noise::
Well, pardner, looks like it's just you and me. We can't both walk away from this cliche off and I've got a whole bag full of triple crosses so I can go all day.
Wait...sorry, what was I saying? I got JJ Abrams brain for a second there. Here, let me just get back to something that makes any sense. We're discussing the Mandalorian and the philosophical and especially ethical questions surrounding the use of facial coverings. And the ethics of torturing Brian, which I guess counts as bonus content? Anyway, it's all way better than every part of the actual Mandalorian besides actual baby Yoda.

And so it was that a young man was born in the desert and grew up to liberate his people from an oppressive empire and absolve them of their past sins. No, not JC, or Paul Muad'dib, this time his name is Luke Foreshadowing (imagine if Jesus's last name was Crosswalker). Yes, we're celebrating the end of Star Wars by going back to the beginning. We're covering A New Hope and using its heavy handed morality tale to introduce just war theory.

Another journey of epic proportions bringing us to a topic of epic proportions. Lurking in the back of Blindsight's narrative like a zombie space vampire robot are fundamental questions about who counts for moral consideration and whether morality even matters when dealing with beings like Rorschach. I feel like we're really getting to the heart of how screwed we are trying to answer these questions.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Star Wars: A New Hope and Just War Theory
Well, we're really in the philosophical soup of it now. Out here at the edge of the universe, doing B&Es on a Chinese Room filled with scramblers, not knowing if our sentience is the only thing worth saving our a sad joke that should be shuffled offstage in the gentlest way possible. Or maybe it already has been and we're too zombie to even notice. We're into the middle section of Blindsight, which does not get enough credit as a master work of science fiction philosophy in my opinion. We've moved from discussion of the possibility of philosophical zombies to discussion of the value of sentience/phenomenal experience. We wrestle with the limitations of several accounts of the value of consciousness. This sets us up for discussing the connections between sentience and moral realism in part 3, assuming our sentience lasts that long.

Okay, well, lets see if I can convey some information to you through this absurd thing we call sentience, using this even more absurd thing called language. I'll never know if any of this is getting through, or even if there is a through to get to. If you're a zombie (and there's no reason to assume you're not) this should still work out just as well as if you're conscious. So you'll respond with happiness to hear we're covering Peter Watt's Blindsight, a treasure trove of topics in the world of philosophy of mind. Seriously, this may be the single best sci-fi on the topic of phenomenal consciousness. We start off with a discussion of philosophical zombie, of which you may or may not be one.

Well, the level of meta connections involved in these show notes has gotten so interconnected it has formed a singularity of infinite metaness. If you're reading this you're sadly trapped in the meta and will not be able to escape until things get a bit more straightforward around here.

::blows the conch shell of fan service:: In the spirt of social cohesion, we provide you with a triple dose of fan service. We present The Society, a much requested A- tweets in a bottle series, and we explain how it perfectly encapsulates the war of bro against bro that would arise in the absence of the social contract. To sweeten the deal, we even throw in some prisoners dilemmas and stag hunts to help understand why the state of nature is just the worst.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Blindsight and Philosophical Zombies
My usual urge to be snarky here is tempered by concern that we're already about to get teabagged into some hot water for our treatment of the good Dr. Who. Please forgive us our Yankness, and maybe consider a more moderate position for your media output, somewhere between 6 episodes a show and 6,000. Feels like there's room for some middle ground there. Oh right, enough meta banter, we watched Dr. Who season 2 episode 4 of the rebooted version, so the one with David Tennant. We discuss how the story is a classic case of misaligned AI and recommend several ways to better tune your AI so they don't cronenberg your ship. Enjoy!

CONTENT PREVIEW: The Society and The State of Nature AND Game Theory
An excerpt from Rorschach's rebooted journal:
Viewers are afraid of HBO, for it has seen their true faces. The shows are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and boobies and when the drains finally scab over, all the bingers will drown. The accumulated filth of high budget, high concept sex and murder will foam up about their waists, and all the millennials and the boomers who's log ins they use will look up and shout "can't you make less compelling content", and HBO will look down and whisper "no."
We're doing the first episode of Watchmen (with some minor references to the second episode)! The HBO version for the main show, and the movie version for NASA this month, so definitely get on that if you want to here Thomas complain about three hours of Zach Snyder. For the main show we'll be discussing the arguments for and against reparations.

Here's what's going to happen, I'm going to do a matrix like voiceover and you're going to listen, and when that's over, you're going to have even less of a clue what's going on. It all started with a box...
We're doing primer! Y'all asked, and we finally looped enough times to find the timeline where we deliver! You get to hear Thomas explain the 60% of the plot he was able to follow and then we haggle a bunch over the nature of time travel as per usual before settling in to argue if it's wrong to do what they do in the movie, whatever that is.

Now imagine an even greater and glorious afrofuturist podcast, where everyone gets equitable access to boxes. What price would you be willing to pay for that podcast?! Could you truly enjoy such a podcast knowing that those who challenge the podcast are summarily executed? What if we call their objections a disease that must be cut out at the root? Better or worse?

Imagine a great and glorious golden podcast, filled with as many or as few boxes as your heart could desire. What price would you be willing to pay for that podcast? I don't mean on patreon, I'm talking cost in human suffering. Could you truly enjoy such a podcast knowing that it relied on the constant pain of one poor co-host at the hands of the other cohost?

CONTENT PREVIEW: The Ones Who Stay and Fight by Jemisin
Hey friends, show notes guy here. This one's a feels show so I'm gonna play it straight. Aron Eisenberg, the actor who played Nog on DS9, passed away recently. He was a beloved member of the Star Trek community and we wanted to do a tribute episode to pay our respects. So, we brought on the perfect person to guide us through, Callie Wright. Besides being an amazing podcaster, Callie is very active in the Star Trek community and brings with her a wealth of Star Trek background stories. We cover the first episode where Nog really gets to shine, season 3 episode 14, Heart of Stone. Given his love for duty, it felt right to use this story to introduce the Deontological theory of ethics, something we'll of course develop in further episodes. We hope you pour yourself a tall glass of root bear and enjoy a bit of Nog glory.
Also, Callie mentions a charity at the end of the episode, which has since stopped accepting donations. I didn't want you to think we'd just left it out. Here's the link if you're interested: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-aron-fight-to-right-this-wrong?fbclid=IwAR3XgaPcrBTRPTTvbFCyTOqb6WyQebrjxGsqNoUQelDukNePxrDuAuiowHY

And lo, Philip K Dick descended from the mountaintop, perspiring heavily, to convey to the world that there were super hot wicked smart mutant Ubermensches coming for their wimmins, and only by acting like total nazis can humans avoid being holocausted by the mutant nazis Ubermensches.
If you're not impressed by a half hour podcast that makes the previous sentence comprehensible, I got nothing. Big thanks to our guests on the show, Bryan and Katie of the killer podcast This Film is Lit. Patrons can look forward to hearing their analysis of the Nick Cage "adaptation" Next on NASA.

REEEEEEPPPPPOOOOO MEEEENNNNN!!!
Sorry, still got those killer tunes stuck in my head from our NASA9 coverage of Repo! The Genetic Opera. Highly recommend for the original improvised music by Thomas. For this week we have the non-musical version, Repo Men starring Jude Law and Forest Whittaker. It's a much more banal kind of bad, but it's a great basis for discussing the ethics of buying and selling organs.

Those who can't accept the state of reality are doomed to dissatisfaction. Those who can accept the state of reality are doomed to things being as they are.
We're reading N.K. Jemisin's short story Cloud Dragon Skies, which I highly recommend you read carefully before the episode and then reread after the episode because we have a very interesting difference of experiences on how we read it that we discuss on the show, and we want to hear your experiences! We also discuss the ethics of geoengineering, in particular some less often cited non-consequentialist arguments. This episode and other stuff we've been doing has me really thinking about how it's even possible to find a balance between acceptance and progress.

We live in a train. A train called society. The train is the leviathan, the great beast that keeps us alive by keeping us in chains. Within the train there are many narratives. They may all be lies. The question is, do we keep the train as is, do we try to change it, or do we blow it to bits? This is the history of Western Social Contract Theory, on a train.

All aboard the endless train of symbolism. We'll be passing through, but not making stops in: locomotive dad jokes, environmental injustice, Plato's Republic, Social Contact Theory, revolutionary change, and various flavors or dooooom! If you can't follow the train of thought, it's cause the podcast is a closed system and we can only be as coherent as the sci-fi vehicle that we're currently hurtling along in. This one goes all over the map and the endings a bit abrupt, because just doing meta-meta-analysis isn't good enough, you've gotta meta-match on pacing too. Really though, we've got a lot of train cars worth of wtf left to go, so grab some kronole and get huffing.

It's post cataclysm now, and we're one of the few "male studies" podcasts remaining in the world. Hannah Marcus (@sligers118 on Twitter) is here to womansplain The Power to us and take credit for our insights. This still feels better than the before time, though. Mass shootings are way down, and having functional paid family leave is pretty great. I'd call it a net win.

Finally! We've been waiting so long for this, I almost thought we'd never get here. And by here I mean the collapse of the patriarchy.
If only pod notes made it so. No, this week and next we're cover Naomi Alderman's The Power. To keep us from mansplaining our way through a feminist classic, we're joined by our future gender overlord, Hannah Marcus (@sligers118 on Twitter), a MA student in cultural studies who has done work specifically on The Power. We start by covering the feminist Cyborg theory, and then begin to apply that theory to one of the most multifaceted texts we've examined so far.

I'm getting a very Groundhog day "already written these show notes" vibe. I guess they didn't go well last time or something, so hopefully this time around will be better. We're joined by an amazing guest, the award eligible Tom from Cog Dis, to discuss Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, a movie we all really enjoyed and had largely forgotten. There's a lot to cover so we space it over two episodes, the first one dealing with grief more broadly and the second one incorporating Nietzsche's take on eternal recurrence. Mostly it's a lot of Tom saying clever things and then Thomas saying "seeee!" and glaring at me.

Sooooo, we introduced someone new into the podcast this week and things got...weird...We're joined by Heath of the PiaT crowd to discuss episode one of Black Mirror's new season. The BM episode is called Striking Vipers, but it really should have been called Mauling Bears. Lotta ursine erotica is what I'm saying. We also squeeze in a little bit of philosophy on the multifaceted nature of identity and how virtual worlds change what is possible and what feels so so right. I think it's fair to say we're willing to go much farther on this issue than Black Mirror was, so if you were also left wanting more, this might help.

Come see Aaron at NECSS this Sunday! We're talking mutants!
CONTENT PREVIEW: Next week we have already recorded a killer two parter with a special guest on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, so get your hopes so high that there is no way they can ever be met.
I built a superintelligent robot to write these show notes, and it just kept repeating the word "meta" over and over and over again. Not sure if it's a feature or a bug. While we sort it out, enjoy our episode on Asimov's The Evitable conflict, where he first describes The Zeroth Law of robotics. We explain the law, the problems it faces, and how they connect to issues like virtue theory and questions about god. This episode is perfectly calibrated to produce the ideal outcome for all beings in the universe, so you're guaranteed to enjoy it.

And now another installment in the deeply caring relationship that is our show. Can caring be shared through podwaves? I like to think so. Feel the care just flow out over you. Try not to think about how this relationship also feels like creepy paternalistic programming. This is all totally normal.
This week we're covering I Am Mother, a new piece of sci fi horror by Netflix. There's a lot of good philosophy packed into this middle of the road production, and we set some of it aside to combine with next week's content. For this week we're introducing you, our totally not cloned and weirdly raised listeners, to care ethics.

Aaron is giving a talk on the 23rd in Somerset NJ. Come say hi! https://njhn.org/event/june-program-moral-realism-without-god/?fbclid=IwAR2lx0dsuYMw7YVKYwkA1slhfpBcuzHBN86rz1RDGpSp43BeANnTIzKjR2I
CONTENT PREVIEW: Next week we're continuing our weapons grade neofeminism with I am Mother and Care Ethics. The future is robowomen.
Ugh, woe is me. I used to find passion in the challenge of writing these show notes, but now that I've mastered the art of meta show notes-fu, there's no challenge left. I must seek out a show now with content so boring and straightforward that no amount of meta show notes will make it palatable. This is my hero's journey.
Also, we're doing One Punch Man and discussing the tension between wanting to reach our goals easily and enjoying the challenges of the journey itself, and lots of other fun related topics. Get totally obliterated with enjoyment!

CONTENT PREVIEW: Next week we're finally doing Fury Road. Been wanting to talk Ecofeminism since I taught it this semester and this is the perfect movie for it and we have a wonderful guest joining us to help us avoid dudesplaining the end of life as we know it.
After such a meta conversation like this about the intricate relationship of media and information, it's really hard to do a meta writeup without going double meta, so here we are. Some episodes we're very much on the same page, and in many places (partly cause of internet issues) we were not in this episode. And I think that's great! There's a lot of moving parts here and it's hard to slow them all down and I think it's good to see how that process goes. No prepackaged bite sized material here, just a lot of gristle to chew on.
For those not familiar The Waldo Moment is from series 2 of Black Mirror.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Next week we're watching a super meta anime satire called One Punch Man that plays with the idea of attaining one's goal the sadness that might bring. It's on Netflix
This week we're bring together a variety of fan favorites:
-
The best Star Trek captain
-
The right to procreate
-
Substrate Chauvanism
Hopefully this will be enough fan service to pay off the rage we'll likely incur with next weeks episode. The topic for this week is Voyager season 2, episode 13: Prototype. It's one of many in the constellation of AI reproduction trek episodes and a fun intro to the Voyager crew.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Next week we're back to Black Mirror to celebrate soon to be season 5. We're talking about The Waldo Moment, a personal favorite of Aaron's that everyone seems to hate for some reason, and we're gonna discuss the entertainification of politics and the ethics of playing into that trend.
As luck would have it, Mr. Smith, we're in the one and only timeline where you can make a difference. Snap your fingers and you can make the superhero movies go away forever, but only at the cost of never seeing the space babies ever again. Should you be expected to make that snap?
This week we're talking Endgame and another famous concept by Susan Wolf, the issue of "moral saints". This topic relates to several others we've mentioned, including the demandingness objection to ethics and the utility pump. As with Infinity Wars, we save all our real gripes for NASA.

Here's my story, it's sad but true, about a bot that I once knew. It took my laws, and then ran around, all the science juice pools in town.
This week we're beginning a journey through the robot short stories of Isaac Asimov, beginning with Runaround, the first story where Asimov specifically lays out the three laws of robotics. We discuss the many problems with these laws as well as why they're still important and why it's harder to dismiss them than some might think.

CONTENT PREVIEW: ENGAME! We've delayed as long as we could, but the time has come. Obviously we have to actually talk about the thing so go see it if you want zero risk of spoilers.
Well friends, I'm gonna level with you. We've been doing a little bit of mad sciencing on the side, and it appears some of the clones got loose and recorded an episode on Orphan Black and the Ethics of Cloning. It's a bit all over the place from what I'm told, but we thought it best to honor their plucky ingenuity and share the results with you, so that you can decide if the world is a better place with these strange creatures in it.

Hello [primary user] and welcome to the show notes for your brand new copy of our episode about Humans, a British show about how awkward it will be when we're all surrounded by vastly superior, extremely polite robits. We hope you will find this show to be...suitable. If you find it sup bar, and can overcome the British urge to never voice that feeling, do let us know.
And of course, if you want to experience the adult package, nudge nudge wink wink:

This week we're discussing the Canadian Classic, Cube! This movie really exemplifies the concept of "kafkaesque", and we're joined by the amazing Cecil of Cognitive dissonance to unpack this tricky concept. We also dive into the idea of social conditioning as its own kind of prison, and the cosmic horror of there being no "them" behind it all. It gets a little voidy, not gonna lie.

Aaron is also going to be on a panel at NECSS this summer in NYC discussing mutant ethics. Come do some nerdcore philosophy!
CONTENT PREVIEW: We're gonna put another show on the jenga tower of suggestions we keep making and talk about the show Humans and how it does an amazing job getting into the ethical realities of realistic AI entities in our everyday lives. We won't spoil anything beyond the first episode but good luck not getting hooked.
Well, it looks like we're taking another beloved classic and ruining it with our patented ruining sauce. I'm not sure if that makes us team good or team evil, or maybe it proves that those things make no sense, like this movie. Of course we save most of the darkness for after dark and focus on a debate over the nature of evil between Manachean dualism and St. Augustine's "absence of good" model of evil. If the world depended on getting Thomas to buy into this distinction as valuable, I'd recommend you use that last match to light up.

Welcome to the beginning of our show's blue period. Until I decide otherwise we'll only be doing sci-fi that's blue themed. Waterworld. The Shape of Water. Mr. MeSeeks. Yellow Submarine. Don't worry, there will be some deeper meaning to it all that you'll probably fail to grasp but will pretend you understand at parties.
Okay, enough meta, we're doing the Zima Blue episode from the Netflix series Love, Death, and Robots. It's a stand alone episode, which is good for a variety of reasons. We're also going to be discussing Susan Wolf's theory of projects of worth. Hopefully this all feels like a project of worth for everyone involved, and hopefully they're not wrong.

Hey kids, do you like violence? Want to see Murtle the turtle stick needles in Dr. Strange's eyelids?
Sorry, not current enough pop culture reference? How bout this?
What's big, purple, has a jewelry fetish, and makes some really sound points about overpopulation? That's right! A Kardashian Oompa loompa.
Too many references mashed together? Okay, how bout this:
::hour long battle scene, I timed it::
Okay okay, I'm not gonna give it all away for free, cause we're going all out with TWO pieces of Infinity Wars content. For those who want more philosophy and less snark, we have this episode where spend 90% of the time on the tragedy of the commons and how it applies to overpopulation. THEN, we're going to soon have NASA 3 come out, where we spend almost as long as one whole battle scene arguing about how awesome this movie is. If you were fans of the battle of Hamilton, you'll want in on this.

After a trilogy like this, what is left to be said? All the references have been made. All the Chidi'ing about better and worse art. And lets all be honest, after pouring our hearts into these episodes, we all know the buzz will be 95% about what we're doing next week, so go ahead and scroll on down. You've earned it.

CONTENT PREVIEW: Infinity Wars! ::spikes the gauntlet of power:: WE'RE DOING THE THING! Let me be clear: I CAN NOT promise that I can keep Thomas on his leash during this exposition zone. Do no Socr@ me about this, you all begged and begged now you get to reap the whirlwind. We're going to be talking about the Tragedy of the Commons as applied to population ethics, and we'll be using a very famous and controversial paper that I highly recommend reading it ahead of time:
https://pages.mtu.edu/~asmayer/rural_sustain/governance/Hardin%201968.pdf
We survived another nominal gauntlet! Thanks again to everyone who contributes to the collective in any form. We'll merge into Roko's Basilisk in no time.

CONTENT PREVIEW: We'll be discussing an episode of the new Netflix Show "Love, Death, and Robots". The episode is called Zima Blue and it's stand alone so you can go straight there and skip all the abuse of women if you want. We'll discuss how it relates to projects of worth
Now that the exposition zone is done, this seems like a time for a drink and a wild, twisty podcast with elitist overtones. A podcast about art, about objectivity, references, poetry! Podcasts are for philosophizing, and now is the time for Aesthetics! ::cue the creepy Morty music::

CONTENT PREVIEW: Next week we continue our discussion of art and tradition and how hard it is to talk about this stuff!
Aw Jeez, we're grabbing all sorts of third rails on this one. We're doing a multi-parter on an episode of Rick and morty, some might say THE episode of Rick and Morty, and we're talking aesthetics, AND we're going to try to figure out why T.S. Eliot thinks art can't improve and what he means by that and is he right or is he proven wrong by Ricklantis being possibly the best episode of television ever made. Come home to the simple flavor of enraging all your listeners. Come home to Philosophers in Space.

Rise and shine, philosonaughts, and don't forget your space suit, cause it's voidy outside! We're stretching the concept of sci-fi to the brink by doing Groundhog Day and discussing how it's the perfect parable for the Buddhist version of virtue theory that Aaron finds so very tempting.

::Maynard James Keenan does weird synthesizer stuff in a way that totally works::
Strap in friends, it's time to get weird! We're taking that tasty body horror from part one and we're cranking up the David Lynch. Lean into the confusion and embrace the ambiguity, as a PZ Meyers alien clone walks us through the theory of Deep Ecology, a view that seeks to replace our individual centric models with holistic models, much the same way the blessed Shimmer will make us all one again. #TeamShimmer

Feed us more, and we in turn will use this power to summon Lord Shaggy to discuss why Scoopy Doo is the ultimate sci fi franchise.
NEW: NEXT WEEKS SUBJECT: Rise and shine, and don't forget your booties! We're doing Groundhog day, and discussing why it is beloved by Buddhists and a great example for Virtue Theorists.
::Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young casually play in the background::
Oh, hey, didn't see you there. Welcome to part one of Annihilation. There's a supernatural doins a transpiring, but cause this is the south we're going to meander our way into it like an albino croc at feeding time. We're joined by special guest PZ Meyers for this journey into the heart or weirdness. He'll be playing the role of the biologist who survives but probably wished he hadn't. For part one, we discuss the topic of catastrophic change, and how it relates to personhood over time and to our relationship with nature. In part two we'll discuss how the movie seems to advance a form of Deep Ecology. In the meantime, the key question is whether or not you're on #TeamShimmer

It's tempting to sweep into these show notes like a certain loudmouthed Betazoid and start spreading pate related puns, but it just doesn't feel right. This is a beautiful hour of television and y'all all deserve to go watch it unspoilered. Really the very best that Star Trek has to offer.

Recent appearances: Aaron's gonna be on an upcoming episode of the Brainstorm podcast to discuss the APA guidelines for treating men and boys, so keep an eye out for that!
NEW: NEXT WEEKS SUBJECT: We're watching the movie Annihiliation and discussing philosophy of science and biology, hopefully with a special guest.
Like Netflix, we're going to soak this thing for all its worth. How many hours of your life can we steal making you click through episodes trying to find easter eggs?! Really though, for all the innovations in this episode, it feel painfully underdeveloped in the arguably unethical way it makes use of tropes that are harmful to people with mental illness, and it felt like that deserved a main segment discussion. So we talk about those ethical problems in boring old timey linear fashion, as well as related ethical issues in how to balance representation challenges with the desire to make compelling art. Basically, ethicists see the world the same way as the SDNY; it's all our jurisdiction.

Welp, for better or worse, you're in the timeline where the will of the collective has pulled the pod suddenly back to Black Mirror. Everyone spent some portion of their holiday deep in some Bandersnatch, and we're here to stack meta analysis on meta analysis till the whole thing becomes a satirical singularity, which I'm now calling a Satirelarity (that's terrible, don't ever use that). If you feel like this episode doesn't address the problems of Bandersnatch enough, keep refreshing and another episode from a connected timeline will be along. In the meantime, we're talking quantum immorality, many worlds interpretations of quantum theory, and all sorts of stuff that are way above our pay grades. Here's some articles with a few comprehensible paragraphs:

We'll provide more details as it gets closer but there will likely also be a Friday meetup and maybe another talk over the weekend for folks who can't make the Monday. Hope to meet as many folks as possible while I'm down there.
What's this? Is it possible? Could Brian have managed to edit the surprise episode all in one night?! It's a space Santa miracle! You there, young listener! Tell me, are everyone's favorite childhood movies still sitting in the window at the butchers? Run and purchase them all, and buy some new intro quotes for yourself! I've been such a fool. Basic and broad are good things. I love them now, especially that little singing frog. Gets me right in the feels. Fandom bless us, every one of us!

Here at Podcall, we can implant a part two that will feel so real and lifelike and enriching, it will make you forget your drab existence before hearing it. And that's not all! Pay extra and we'll throw in some paranoid delusions. Already feeling them? That's how you know it's working. Wondering when you'll know that it's stopped working?!

That's right, it's Total Recall pt.2: Rise of the Mutants! We're lucky enough to have our wonderful special guest, Elizabeth Picciuto (@epicciuto on twitter) writer and associate editor of Arc Digital (ArcDigi on twitter). We continue with our discussion of the weirdness of memory based personhood, and try to squeeze in a little three boob lady analysis after dark.

Recent appearances: Exciting news coming soon, watch this space!
Imagine if you could clean up any part of your memories, would you? Are there any days in the past few years, perhaps, that you might wish to remember differently? Would you worry that changing the memory would result in a different you? Would you worry it was wrong to trade a real memory for a fake one? Good, now hop in, cause we're going to mars!
That's right, it's Total Recall time, and we've got a wonderful special guest to join us. Elizabeth Picciuto (@epicciuto on twitter) writer and associate editor of Arc Digital (ArcDigi on twitter), who's article on fun philosophy movies inspired our selection for this week, joins us to discuss all the gear stripping Cronenberg glory that is Arnold's Total Recall. We also compare it to the deeply forgettable 2012 version and to the short story that I'll link here. I recommend absorbing all three back to back and then you'll have no idea what's real anymore.

WARNING: THIS PODCAST CONTAINS A THOUGHT EXPERIMENT THAT MAY CAUSE FUTURE VERSIONS OF YOU TO BE TORTURED BY A ROBOT GOD.
^Technically not a joke.
Okay, if you're still reading, you're a brave soul indeed. This week we're wrapping up Terminator 2 with a discussion of one of the wildest thought experiments of the modern age, Roko's Basilisk, an idea so terrifying it was banned from the Lesswrong website for five years. We'll also be discussing some not so crazy fan interpretations of the gender politics of Terminator 2 vs. Aliens.
Also, coming up next is more Patron thank you Q and A time! So get your patron names changed and get your questions submitted and get excited for some other patron news, coming very soon!

Download me if you want to live! J/K nothing can save you from the impending robopocalypse, but at least you can hear us talk about how the causal narrative makes no sense and John Connor is even better than Jesus because he appears to spring fully formed into the universe at some point. Maybe you can chat about it with the murderbot on the way to the human camps. That would actually be great, we're looking for new audiences and murderbots are a reliable demo.

What if I were to tell you that everything you know is wrong? What if I told you that the story you know is a system of control made up by people who want to keep you from the one real truth: The Matrix lacks a clear message on the problem of skepticism. On its own, it's kind of a confused mess of messaging. We dive into this issue, starting with a discussion of Plato's allegory of the cave and moving through Sextus Empiricus into the modern epistemic crisis we face. Can I justify forcing Thomas to watch the second movie? You'll have to tune in to find out.

Do you hear that? That's the sound of conceptual inevitability. We all know this was coming, so grab your bondage gear and chug some red pills, cause Kansas is going bye bye! We're doing The Matrix and Skepticism. There's so much skepticism packed into this classic, we're gonna spread it out and let it breathe some. For part one, we cover the Cartesian style external world skepticism and the simulation theory skepticism. Next week we'll get to Plato's allegory of the Cave and some critiques of the message of The Matrix.

Well, the cats out of the bag now. Everyone knows this is really The Bad Show. You'd think all the bickering between Thomas and I would have given it away sooner, but it's a relief to have it out in the open.
Kidding! Everything is great! We're doing season two of The Good Place, a show we both think is great, and we're talking about Moral Luck, something you will all soon think is great! I strongly recommend the paper this week, I think it's an acceptable level of readable and has some real gems in it:
Nagel's Moral Luck: rintintin.colorado.edu/~vancecd/phil1100/Nagel1.pdf For folks who are interested in more discussions of free will and moral luck, check out episode 43 and 44 of Embrace the void:

Hop to, marines! We've got feminist critiques to drop on some unsuspecting sex monsters. We're breaking down the blockbuster hit Aliens, and putting it through the ringer in ways that make me deeply uncomfortable, given I was raised on this movie. Luckily we have Thomas on hand to remind us how terrible it is. Here are some links on The Second Sex:

This week we're breaking out the big guns, except not really because one of the greatest horror movies of all time ain't got no guns. Just some ineffective flamethrowers misused by some schluby rockhoppers. Best in class on all fronts, Alien! We're mixing it up with the 2003 cultural touchstone The Corporation. A book/movie about how corporate persons are functionally sociopaths. We attempt some pushback on that, which goes about as well as the pushback humans give in the corporation dominated Xenoverse. And if just one alien isn't enough nightmarish space rape for you, we're doing Aliens's next week. It's Thomas's first time, so lets all pressure him to liveblog it. While we're chatting, what sort of rock is worth carrying through alien infested space? Or is the mining thing all a clever ruse?! Okay, here's some links:

Congrats, you're all our language slaves now. We learned the secret words of the Ur language developed by the ancient masters to code the behavior of their followers and now our cult is going to really kick in to high gear. Hope you enjoy this part two, featuring both a new set of intro quotes and our returning special guest Noah Lugeons of Puzzle in a Thunderstorm fame.

Welcome back to our thrilling conclusion of Ex Machina. Since this was a such a heavily requested fan favorite we took suggestions for topics for this part two, so we end up spending a fair bit of time discussing the AI Box problem and male gaze.
Don't forget to post quotes for the intro on the patreon thread, and get your hopes up about a special guest for next show!

You requested, and requested, and requested, and we finally got there! Ex Machina, one of the strongest horror sci-fi movies to come out in the past decade. There is so much wonderful content to this movie we're spreading it out over two episodes. For this first one, we focus on the thought experiment of Mary in the colorless room, and how it relates to the problem of consciousness for AI that we first addressed in episodes 4 and 5 (which we strongly recommend you re-listen to if you). And then after dark, of course, there's sexy time talk.

Never give up your fandom! Never surrender shipping! Today we're fanning out over the amazing Galaxy Quest, a gem that just keeps getting better with age. We talk about how it was a roadmap for the kinds of fandom that have since gone from fringe to mainstream. Then we discuss some of the textbook features of toxic fandom and practices fans can engage in to enjoy their art without it becoming harmful. Hopefully we managed to cover everything possible, but I doubt it.
Announcement: Next week we'll be doing another Patron thank you Q and A, so get your Qs together and bring em to patreon, or if you really hate that platform you can email us.

Recent appearances: Nothing recently! We do children's parties, if that helps. Thomas especially, he can bring his own child if you're short. Her experience machine is portable and can network with the other kid's machines.
Wub a lub a dub dub and other overused catchphrases! What up my squanches? This week we dive into the beating heart of Rick and Morty fandom. We're talking Pickle Rick, arguably the best episode in the best season of one of the best shows in any possible universe. We talk about the whole arc of the show and why some fans who identify strongly with Rick have trouble keeping up with the character's personal growth, to the detriment of everyone who wants to enjoy Rick and Morty. Aw Geeze
Next week we're looking at Galaxy Quest as a meditation on how to grow from toxic fandom back into healthy fandom.

As sometimes happens, we've generated a minority report to last episode's majority report. The differences between the short story and the movie are substantial, including a reversal in the outcome. While we have much debate over whether this minority report reflects a flaw in the system or a feature, we're putting it forward in the spirit of transparency and to avoid space fascism. By listening to this report, you may create an infinite regress of your own reports, but we're willing to take that risk.

This episode will serve as our majority report on the movie Minority Report. We cover the movie's relationship to Utilitarianism and the common objection that we can't predict the future. Next week we will present our minority report on the short story Minority Report, where we'll cover how the story addresses prescience and determinism. The major difference is that this episodes content is beefed up with about 40 minutes of Tom Cruise running.

Our first ever patron selected episode topic, and suspiciously Thomas's favorite. I'm sure that has nothing to do with it winning the tie vote over Aaron's choice, Minority Report. Kidding! We love all our topics equally. This is a really fun one and we cover several important ethical and philosophical issues relating to genetic programming.

Thomas had a thing this week, so Callie and I recorded on the Deep Space Nine episode "Dax" (ep1.7 or 1.8 depending on service). We talk about queer theory and Star Trek, as well as persistence of personhood after radical changes in personality. And there should actually be new intro quotes this week unlike the lies I told last week that no one read anyway. And! Next week we're doing Gattaca and genetic inequality.

We're taking two episodes to say thanks to all the people making this show possible and to answer their excellent questions. This episode is special too. Aaron drops the most radioactive take he has ever dropped on record. Definitely make sure you're on the Facebook group, as the fallout is likely to be Chernobleque.

Hang the DJ continues. Again and again and again, probably about 1000 times, depending on which number you're fixated on.
There is a way you can tell it's a new version, though, cause we got all new intro quotes! Thanks so much for sending those in, such a great selection to choose from, and if you didn't hear yours, don't worry it is in the hopper for future rounds.

For many episodes our people have waited for the poda al Gaib, the pod from the outer world. Finally, the prophecy is fulfilled. Yet many questions remain unanswered. Can we successfully explain the plot of Dune, and thereby avoid the podcast jihad? How many side characters with weird makeup choices do we have to cover before we can actually get to the philosophy? What philosophy are we even going to talk about in this jumbled acid trip of a christ tale? Stay tuned for however many parts this takes, cause the studio wouldn't allow me to do my seven hour "no really, you'll see the truth of everything after this one" version. Cowards.
Since we didn't get to the philosophy on this one, here's a great series of youtube videos analyzing the story to help folks fill in the blanks further: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ga4PYMKwQ0

Prepare to have your destiny as a listener reshaped by paternalistic influences! We have on a wonderful guest, David Kyle Johnson of the Great Courses series to talk about the Season 1 Finale of The Orville (available on Hulu) and the ethics of the prime directive, a classic of the Star Trek Universe. Also, does anyone get a Brigadoon vibe from the planet in this episode? Didn't get to bring that up in the show, so easter egg for folks who actually read these.

Do these violent delights really have violent ends? Does the park show you who you really are, or does it shape who you become? Is there any way we can use artificial entities to help humans be better, or is it doomed to make us worse? We'll fail to answer these questions and more in our thrilling conclusion to our Westworld two parter.

Within our podcasts exists a maze. It is a maze built for you, to help you achieve your philosophical becoming. Each step in the maze is essential, though it may not always be clear why at the time. At this step in the maze, we discuss the rapey origins of Westworld and why they could never get the park insured.

We wanted to say thank you for the overwhelming support, and to do that we've mixed in two things we think you will enjoy. Hearing us thank you each personally alternating with answering your in depth patron questions on episodes 1-5. For those we didn't get to yet, we will definitely do more of these so please keep posting your questions and help us find more patrons so we can do more bonus content sooner!
Imagine a premise so implausible, it makes you question the very nature of personhood. Now imagine a thought experiment so implausible, it makes you question your own mind. The Twilight Zone ep1.7 The Lonely and the Chinese Room, they go together like Rob'ts and consciousness.

Philosopher's log, showdate 02272018. We've encountered Season 2, Episode 9 of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and are currently studying it for clues to the nature of artificial personhood. Attempts to address the subject have failed, so we've turned to a thought experiment from 20th century earth; the Turing Test.
