Dracula has been rewritten as a brooding romantic lead so many times that it's easy to forget he's a rapist. Matthew sits down with AK and Marlena Chesner to ask the hard question: does giving a monster a tragic backstory change what he is, or does it just make us more comfortable rooting for him?Working through three versions of the Dracula story — Bram Stoker's novel, Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula, and the recent 2025 film — the group traces how each adaptation handles consent, female agency, and the ethics of sympathy. AK brings a sharp rhetorical lens to scenes the other guests found straightforwardly troubling, reading the 2025 film as an accidental and unnervingly accurate portrait of how abuse perpetuates itself, in particular in light of the consent allegations brought against Luc Besson, writer and director of the 2025 adaptation. Marlena's re-read of the novel keeps the conversation grounded in what Stoker actually wrote — including a Mina who is far more capable and agentive than most adaptations let her be.The conversation also takes in Castlevania and the Netflix Dracula mini-series as counterexamples, the "banality of evil" as a framework for understanding a villain who is fully convinced his violence is an act of love, and why the hallway fight scene in the 2025 film is the clearest sign that its makers see Dracula as a hero.About AK and MarlenaBig time nerd, big time philosopher, big time lover of all things sci-fi and fantasy, AK_Ahab is a recent grad with a philosophy degree and a focus on disability and rhetoric.

Lyn Alden is back on THE Bitcoin Podcast to break down why this cycle left so many of us feeling like we should be more excited than we are. We get into why $126K, despite being a new all-time high, fell short of what the fundamentals suggested was possible, and what that tells us about where retail and sovereign demand actually stands. We also dig into the macro picture, the Fed, the new chair, Bitcoin vs Quantum narrative, AI as a deflationary force, why DOGE couldn't actually move the needle on government spending, and what geopolitical catalyst might finally wake the world up to Bitcoin. Plus, Lyn shares something completely new — her debut sci-fi novel, "The Stolguard incident" which is darker and more human than you'd expect, and honestly one of the best things I've read in years.

This week our usual crew of Joe, Matt, and Eric was joined by Liz to discuss William Gibson's novel Neuromancer. This 1984 novel was foundational to the cyberpunk genre in many ways, from establishing the grittiness of the setting all the way down to shaping the way this genre looks and feels across different types of media. The crew discuss themes through Neuromancer which are also inherent through a lot of cyberpunk media now, like the idea of what makes a person, and whether an AI could ever have personhood. They also discuss how older tech can affect our modern reading of futuristic media -- if you've never seen a payphone, you probably have no idea how eerie a bank of them ringing all at once would be, but then Gibson would have no way of knowing where payphone tech ended up today.It's a great conversation on a foundational work of sci-fi, and if you haven't picked it up, Joe has some suggestions as to where to get it online while still benefitting your local book store.If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

287: TechTime Radio: A landmark social‑media addiction trial, brain‑steered pigeons, and a global memory crunch collide in an hour that questions who really controls attention, autonomy, and access. We break down Zuckerberg's courtroom spotlight, the stakes of age‑verification and identity collection, and the eerie rise of biodrone pigeons that blur the line between experimentation and coercive tech. The conversation widens to AI‑driven DRAM shortages slowing devices, inflating prices, and reshaping hardware roadmaps, all while Copilot's sensitive‑email summarization misstep raises fresh questions about guardrails and trust.From bioethics to supply chains, the episode tracks how emerging systems quietly reshape daily life—from slower AI tools to pricier gadgets to new surveillance risks. We even detour into Japan's “Monster Wolf” deterrent, a reminder that strange inventions often surface deeper debates about safety and unintended consequences. And as always, we ground the big stories with our whiskey tasting and game segment, keeping the tech turbulence both sharp and fun.Full Details:A courtroom showdown, brain-steered birds, and a supply chain squeeze collide in a fast-moving hour where we probe who truly controls attention, autonomy, and access. We start with the landmark social media addiction trial putting Mark Zuckerberg under the spotlight and ask what “less than one percent of ad revenue” really means against testimony, internal emails, and the lived experiences of teens and parents. We debate how age verification could evolve, why “government made us do it” might justify deeper identity collection, and where meaningful safety ends and surveillance begins.Then we pivot to a story that feels ripped from science fiction: a Russian startup turning pigeons into biodrones via neural stimulation. The birds navigate cities with uncanny stealth—no rotors, no glare, just feathers and control signals—raising red flags for bioethics, law enforcement, and civil liberties. We unpack the slippery slope from animal experiments to human augmentation, along with the unsettling possibility that autonomy becomes optional when enhancement is sold as progress.Meanwhile, the hardware reality bites. AI data centers are inhaling global DRAM, driving prices up and forcing even top-tier firms to rethink roadmaps. With a handful of manufacturers controlling production and expansion lagging demand, the industry faces delayed launches, pricier devices, and a renewed interest in repair and refurbishment. We connect the dots to everyday users: why your AI tools feel slower, why memory costs more, and how scarcity triggers hoarding and gray markets.We also break down Microsoft Copilot's eyebrow-raising leap into summarizing sensitive emails and drafts, exploring what went wrong, why “code issue” isn't a satisfying answer, and what robust guardrails should look like. Plus, a wild detour into Japan's “Monster Wolf” bear deterrent, proof that even quirky gadgets can surface deep questions about safety, design, and unintended consequences. Along the way, we keep it grounded with our whiskey tasting and game segment.If you're curious about where tech policy, bioethics, and infrastructure collide—and what it means for your devices, data, and daily life—this one's for you. If it sparks a thought, share it with a friend, subscribe, and leave a review with the one change you'd make to social platforms today.Support the show

This week on Lost Terminal: Mirror makes an impression on Meg, Seth learns about post-Collapse Italy, and that choices have consequences.Lost Terminal will return next week!

Today we talk about current events.Also… last chance to order SIGNED Copies of Strange Company and the Wasteland Saga. Thank you.Strange Company Series and The Wasteland Saga Series are ready for ordering SIGNED copies. I do this at specific times because I need to order them in advance, as they are not always available. I'd jump on this if you want SIGNED copies for yourself, or, a gift for a special friend during the holidays or birthdays.These will be SIGNED Copies.I'll be SIGNING the Strange Company Books BUNDLE for $99.99 You get all 3 Books SIGNED for that price.TRIVA: These are beautiful books. The art on the covers is done by three of the most in-demand artists working in SciFi art today. Pascal Blanche (Dune Concept Artist) did Strange Company. Trent Kaniuga (Twilight Monk, Blizzard Diablo 3 Artist) did Voodoo Warfare. And Marc Lee (Coffee and Perspectives) did Hearts of Darkness. I think these are collectors' editions and I hope you take advantage of this offer. I wanted the best artists for the Strange Company, and I think the art adds to the story in an exceptionally satisfying way.I'll also be ordering copies of The Wasteland Saga.I'll be SIGNING The Wasteland Saga Series for $69.99. You get all 3 Books SIGNED for that price.TRIVIA: Artist M.S. Corley conceived and executed a very specific vision of the covers I wanted for The Wasteland Saga books. These were the third edition of the covers. The first, way back in 2011, was a cover I bought from an artist that was expensive for me at the time but didn't necessarily evoke what I wanted. Those were the early days of Indie pub and it was all I had the money for. It was kind of a take it or leave it deal. Then I sold the series to Harper Collins and they basically did a photoshop hack job for the covers. When I finally recovered the rights in 2019 I wanted to do something that evoked the Post-Apocalyptic Hemmingway nature of the books. I have a favorite sketch from Picasso. Don Quixote. I gave an image of the sketch to M.S. Corely and together we came up with covers that finally captured the series. Honestly… they are beautiful pieces of art and I love them even without the books. But that vintage feel they give to the covers of these books is very special to me and makes it feel like it was all worth it, and I am very pleased to offer them to you, SIGNED. These are keepers and I hope you cherish them as much as I do. -Nick This is a public episode.

Three more goblins step from the shadows, their bows raised.”Bob who was playing a first level fighter smiled. “This is perfect. Four Goblins against our Four 1st level characters. Let's Do This! I charge forward with a war cry.”20 minutes later as the players all sit in disbelief, their characters dead or dying with no possibility of survival. “What the hell just happened” they mumble as they start working on new characters.What happened is that no matter what the book says about Challenge Ratings, there is no such thing as a balanced encounter.On this episode Mike, Christina and I are going to talk about Balancing Encounters in your games. Why there is no such thing as a balanced encounter and the difference between a Roleplaying and Gaming at the table.Mike, this is your favorite thing to say, so why don't you kick us off.[Kick to Mike]Christina, you are heavy on the story telling side or what I like to call Roleplaying.

The man who helped design the surveillance state is perfectly fine with it—until his daughter calls covered in blood with a dead boyfriend on the floor. The Price of Safety, Michael C. Bland's award-winning sci-fi novel, is set in 2047, where cameras are everywhere, your optics can be hacked, and the system was built by someone who genuinely thought he was keeping people safe. Matthew sits down with Michael to ask the question the book won't let you avoid: how much liberty are we actually willing to trade for safety—and what happens when the people holding the keys decide your freedom is the price?They dig into the mechanics of how surveillance reshapes behavior (the terror isn't being watched—it's not knowing when), why grief and helplessness after loss quietly raise our tolerance for control, and how every character in the book, including the ones doing terrible things, genuinely believes they're the hero of their own story. Michael also shares the moment his fictional DNA scanner turned real: he wrote it into his second book, and a month after publication, a California company announced they'd built it.The conversation keeps landing uncomfortably close to the present—and that's exactly the point.Website**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, an Ethical Panda podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

We've got 15 books and series here, so there should be something to love for almost every reader (although we need some traditional fantasy page turners – send us some recommendations in the comments please)! Plus, at the end of the episode we each rank our personal top 3. We intentionally excluded YA and military sci-fi books, although those are often also page-turners - look out for episodes about each of those soon! Brent's brother, Alex, joined us for this episode, and brought us a whole new batch of books (and frankly a couple new subgenres) to enjoy. LitRPG / progression fantasy just keep getting more popular, and we can see why – the books we've picked up have all been so, so fun to read (although it probably helps we've been reading Alex's recommendations so far, the best of the best from the hundreds of LitRPG books he's read).

On this episode of Thumb War, we dig into Gore Verbinski's return, Sam Rockwell's charisma, Juno Temple's emotional core, and why this movie's AI-driven “happy ending” might be the scariest part of all.
