The "city of the future" has long lived in our past and continues to fill us with hope and wonder. What might the urban megalopolis of tomorrow look like? Andre and Richard casually discuss the possibilities, touching upon housing, transportation, energy, agriculture, and waste management.

Cryonics - sometimes referred to as “cryopreservation” - "is the low-temperature preservation of animals and humans who cannot be sustained by contemporary medicine, with the hope that healing and resuscitation may be possible in the future." Andre and Richard casually discuss the history of cryonics, and look at how this challenging and somewhat disturbing area of science and medicine may impact our future.

The Internet of Things (IoT) describes an expansive network of connected devices - thermostats, refrigerators, door locks, fitness trackers, light bulbs, etc - that have the potential to work together to create automated "scenes" for the user. Andre and Richard discuss some of the possibilities these interconnected devices may have for our future lives.

Andre, Richard and guest, Brian Chernick, casually discuss the vast potential and power of Regenerative Medicine, a branch of the medical and biological sciences which will likely help us to repair and regenerate damaged tissue and reduced organ function. In short, Regenerative Medicine could vastly improve the quality and length of our lives, and - perhaps one day - lead to immortality.

Andre and Richard casually discuss their thoughts about the Ridley Scott film, THE MARTIAN. In addition to offering their observations about the film's creative and technical merits, Andre and Richard also use it as a jumping-off point to discuss our possible future in space.

Andre, Richard, and Robert casually discuss our forthcoming overlords, the robots! Already present in manufacturing for decades, robots will increasingly make their presence known in countless other capacities and in myriad formats.

Andre, Richard, and Robert casually discuss the world-changing power of nanotechnology, which will influence and shape construction, medicine, computing, and so much more.
