Description

As sometimes happens, we've generated a minority report to last episode's majority report. The differences between the short story and the movie are substantial, including a reversal in the outcome. While we have much debate over whether this minority report reflects a flaw in the system or a feature, we're putting it forward in the spirit of transparency and to avoid space fascism. By listening to this report, you may create an infinite regress of your own reports, but we're willing to take that risk. Excerpts from a book on Minority Report and Free will: https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=NXmv0zXZBi4C&oi=fnd&pg=PA103&dq=Minority+report+determinism&ots=U8bJuPOSzl&sig=7eUUflSo9H5_acUsP45Kc2lnQiY#v=onepage&q=Minority%20report%20determinism&f=false  Announcement: We've updated our patreon goals since we kind of just did them anyway.

We've trapped two philosophers in deep space for your amusement. To stave off space madness, they're beaming back podcasts where they overanalyze science fiction to mine it for delicious philosophical concepts. Tune in to our fun little experiment, with samplings from Black Mirror, Star Trek, Rick and Morty, and many more! Live long and philosopher.
