And now another installment in the deeply caring relationship that is our show. Can caring be shared through podwaves? I like to think so. Feel the care just flow out over you. Try not to think about how this relationship also feels like creepy paternalistic programming. This is all totally normal. This week we're covering I Am Mother, a new piece of sci fi horror by Netflix. There's a lot of good philosophy packed into this middle of the road production, and we set some of it aside to combine with next week's content. For this week we're introducing you, our totally not cloned and weirdly raised listeners, to care ethics.
