42. If There Were No Benny Cemoli
We have seen Dune 2 and will discuss shortly. In the meantime, enjoy the story of Benny Cemoli -- a non-existant cult leader invented by the omniscient, mechanical New York Times. We compare the lengths of pneumatic tubes, erotic fanfic manuscripts, and ChatGPT's influence.

40. Service Call
If you had to travel 2000 years into the past, what knowledge would you use to dominate the ancient world?
If you met a time-traveling repairman of 2043's most lucrative gadget, what question would you ask him?
If you gave an ipad to a medival peasant, how long would it take him to find porn?
Join us for thrilling exploration of these questions and more.

39. Strange Eden
Pussy so good it reduces rugged explorers to tamed livestock. Aliens so old they don't even remember how their technology works. A cosmos so vast even millennials can afford a home. Join us as we discuss PKD's condemnation the 'low aesthetic plateau' of mankind via a sci-fi reincarnation of Circe.

37. The Preserving Machine
The gang is back to examine 1969's THE PRESERVING MACHINE. We talk about the collapse of society, what survives, Trolls World Tour, and potential new media technologies. Would mutant music sound good to modern ears? Would pop music survive in the wilderness?
Songs we wanna hang out with playlist.
