Player Piano is a weekly conversation recapping HBO's Westworld. Hosts Dan and Trevor do their best to decode the plot, philosophy and filmcraft of the sci-fi epic.

This week Dan and Trevor go deep, recapping the full episode and decoding a few of its clues as well as discussing some of the big ideas touched on in including: the contagious nature of memes, the role of language in creation and what it would be like if they made a Nintendo Power magazine for Westworld visitors. This week we added cocktails and our new theme music.

Recap starts at 3:23

Broader, half-drunk discussion begins at 1:39:34
