    Monolith and Viral Memetics

    Monolith and Viral Memetics

    Listeners, have we got a story for you. Two Lovecraftian podcasters so far up their own allegorical asses they do a podcast about a movie about a podcaster doing a Lovecraft. It's meta all the way down folks, so naturally we're talking memetics and the ethics of content creation. Enjoy!

    Sense8 and TERFs

    Sense8 and TERFs

    We're keeping the theme going from Barbie with some weird mind connection gender stuff! We discuss the first two episodes of Sense8 and what they show us about the philosophy of TERFs, how that might be different from gender critical, and what the future is that TERFs seem to want. Enjoy!

    Barbie

    Barbie

    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!
