Episode description

Is computer tech all about us yearning for the oneness whom we are and are repressing? Are Jeff Ritzmann and Jeremy Vaeni two old farts screaming at kids to get off their lawn?

Picking up on themes in Paratopia Episode 120: Bill Birnes - Everything Asked, The Jeff & The Jer go back and forth on computer tech and the state of a future being dictated to us by rich men living in fear of death. Subjects include nanobots in the bloodstream (yes, kids, people were talking about it a decade before the pandemic), video games, Transcendent Man, a documentary on inventor and futurist, Ray Kurzweil, and, sure, let's throw in Lady Gaga for good measure.  (originally created: 06.16.2011)
