The world of Doctor Who spans 39 non-consecutive seasons, several movies, and the obligatory spin-offs. This means there is a TON of material on the last Timelord, so we had to do a 4 part series to cover everything. In this first episode, we take a look at the time-traveling TARDIS, The Doctor’s faithful companion. […]

The Matrix is one of the most influential Sci-fi movies of all time.  In it, human beings are born into pods where they power an entire race of machines.  Humans are not aware of this, because at birth everyone is plugged into a vast digital universe called The Matrix that everyone believes is the real […]

The main technology in Reminiscence centers around storing, projecting, and reliving your memories.  This is a really cool idea, and in some ways it goes along really well with our digital upload episode.  We definitely get into this, but this show takes a very interesting turn by discussing the urban effects on massive climate change […]

We all have dreams, be them metaphorical or literal.  When we dream, we are in our perfect place, one where all our deepest desires come true.  In them, we achieve greatness, and can be anything we want to be.  It is our ultimate safe place, unless of course you live with Freddy Krueger on Elm […]
