    How Could You Forget: The Future is Now, Old Man!

    Today, we take a look at various aesthetics and artistic statements made through recent history that provide glimpses of a future that could've been. A timeline that never happened. From atompunk in the Fallout series, to steampunk in many classic movies, and many others (some of which we were surprised to learn existed at all)! This episode was not recommended by anyone, Lexi was just very inspired by the enigmatic character of our last episode, Jack Parsons. We're always reading your comments and saving your ideas though, so keep them coming. You could be next! ALSO! If you are interested, all episodes are on audio formats (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc.) so be sure to give us 5 stars wherever you listen to this podcast because it really helps us out.
