The third time is definitely charming, as we take a brief moment this Festivus for some thanks and shout-outs to those who've followed along on this journey, and a quick recap of 2025 on the Implausipod.  Thanks for visiting us along the way. :)

With season 2 of Fallout about to arrive in New Vegas, let's have a quick roundtable with our impressions of the first season.  This is part 2, as I don't like the episodes getting too long. Season 2 awaits on December 17th, 2025.

Listen to part 1 here:

We continue with our look at the WYCU, stopping at the Bladerunners, and figuring out how they fit within the timeline?  Let's journey to the dark... future(?) of 2019 and find out what happened on those off-world colonies, as we look at Blade Runner (1982), iRobot (2004), Soldier (1998), and Blade Runner 2049 (2017).

 (Also, a spoiler warning: we cover a lot in these 4 films). 

We're doing something different in our (re)watch: we've been watching the titles chronologically.  Not by release, but by where they fit within the timeline.  

Check out part 1 of the WYCU here, and take a look at our WYCU overview over on the Implausiblog

Welcome to Phase 1 of the WYCU, as we start our look at the Weyland-Yutani Cinematic Universe. We've been talking about this over the last few months over on the blog, but with the three new titles released in the shared universe in 2025, it's time to get caught up on one of the original CUs, one that spans at least three movie franchises: Aliens, Predator, Blade Runner, (and a few more surprises too?)

 (Also, a spoiler warning: there's probably lots in our look at these 9 films). 

But we're doing something different in our (re)watch: we've been watching the titles chronologically.  Not by release, but by where they fit within the timeline.  

We'll also be taking this opportunity to return to Appendix W: as the original Predator most definitely fits on the list. Let's get to da choppa!

Welcome to the Implausipod, where we are looking at one of the more influential franchises in both cyberpunk and science fiction, as we use the recent release of Tron:Ares (2025) to look at the impact of the franchise as a whole - including Tron (1982) and Tron: Legacy (2010) - on the ideas and development of our virtual worlds.

Welcome to the Implausipod, where a wrong turn and a 20 minutes detour due to poor signage led to an inquiry into the evolution of autonomous vehicles. We'll examine how the idea has appeared in popular culture, both within and outside science fiction. Turns out when it comes to self-driving cars, we're thinking street ahead.

A look into the rise of ghost artists on Spotify, both AI generated and not, and what the history of Performer's Rights Organizations mean for art and creativity in the 21st century, and how that may make us question the very nature of creativity itself.
