Ep 80 - Wool

We’ve all heard someone say something to the effect of, “that’s just how we do it and always have.” Imagine that being applied to everything in your life; who is allowed to have children, who is in control of the government, why can no one go outside? Now imagine even asking those questions would get you executed. Welcome to the world in the Silo, based on the book Wool by Hugh Howey

Ep 78 - Daemon

Artificial Intelligence is all the rage right now causing people to question its use and how it will effect society. But what if it didn’t take AI to bring down the world we know, what if all it took was a really complex decision tree programmed by a genius and set out upon the world after his death? This month we take a look at the first in a two part series where it happens and even though people die, fortunes are lost and countries could fall, we have to ask, is that a bad thing? Find out in this month’s book, Daemon by Daniel Suarez.
