Enthusiastic Rest

A Tour of the *Punks (Quiet Version)

Listen Later

The quiet version of Enthusiastic Rest is for people who want a softer listening experience without fiddling with any volume settings on their device.

Tonight, I ramble about one of my niche fields of knowledge: cyberpunk, and especially cyberpunk derivatives nobody's ever heard of. Featured in this episode:

  • A not-so-brief possibly-apocryphal history of noir, cyberpunk, and punk music itself
  • So is your cyberpunk cyberpunk, post-cyberpunk, or cyberpunk (again)?
  • Why steampunk feels so different from cyberpunk
  • How we could have had so much more than vaporwave Spongebob
  • Why hope is radical, but cannot be an entire politic
  • And more!
