“All is a dream, all is illusion; I am your vision as you are mine.” This is a quote from the 1935 book “Pygmalion's Spectacles” by Stanley Weinbaum, one of the first known fictional mentions of virtual reality, where a professor invents a special pair of glasses that allow the wearer to enter into a virtual world. Who knew the concept of VR existed so long ago? Join us on today's episode as we discuss the historical, present, and future state of virtual and augmented reality with friend and aspiring game designer Sean Frenzel.
This is a dialogue about the concept of lesbian bed death (LBD). LBD is a term coined in the 1980s by a sociologist named Pepper Schwartz who concluded that lesbians eventually have less sex than any other type of couple. Is this all just an outdated concept or a genuine thing? Join us as we figure it out.

Today we’re discussing climate change and the Texas power grid. Our guest is a member of the Sunrise Movement Texas, Janneke Parrish, who is knowledgeable about the political issues surrounding these topics. Texas recently experienced a catastrophic snowstorm leaving millions without power and water in freezing temperatures. The governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, was quick to blame renewable energy and the green new deal. Texas has its own grid, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) and in our opinion makes it obvious that a for profit energy system is bound to fail. It’s all about maximizing profits. Updating and weatherizing infrastructure has never been a priority. Lack of regulations and oversight means there’s no requirement for these electric companies who are in competition to make investments into the health and safety of the grid. Furthermore, it’s the fossil fuels themselves that are to blame for climate change. Basically as the planet warms the jet stream that typically keeps bitter cold temperatures north breaks down, moving colder weather south. We can expect more events like this in the future making weatherization and preparation in southern states more important than ever.
