Show #017: Science Fiction has long explored ideas about the next step in human evolution: steps that we will consciously choose; science isn't quite catching up on all fronts, but scientists *are* undermining the very notion of consciousness. With background music from Tom "T-Bone" Stankus, Laurie Anderson, Underworld, Khan, and Gurdieff, plus a clip from a new (old) podcast! Action packed episode!

#016 - New Audio Equipment - This is an experiment in audio production only. There's virtually no content at all, other than Bluejack's trials and travails trying to figure out how audio cables work. Hopefully this will be the last experimental meta show in the series. It can only get better from here!
