Your mind is comprised of the highest technology in existence, but what’s your operating system?

You’re in a conversation. Whatever they’re saying, you don’t agree. The thought pops into your mind that if you say the particular thing you’re thinking, the disagreement will escalate to a level you’re both sure not to enjoy. The problem is this: it’s the one thing you want to say the most. You want to say it more than anything—because it’s true and it’s right, but you can already see the drama on the wall. You resolve not to say it. But the next moment, it’s out of your mouth.

Snake eyes.

You’re screwed. You said it. They heard it—maybe they even made you repeat it with something like, “WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?” and because you’d already gone too far and can’t see any way back, you repeat the thing you just said.

Why?

 

Last time we visited Mollyville together Goldie was relishing in her freedom from the sticky web of Olsen family secrets, Oedipal sons and the sexually reckless lives of Eva and Bjørn Olsen.

Caveat: The Mollyville Dystopian Audio Drama podcast employs frank language and provocative themes. It is intended for a mature audience.

 

A dystopia is a community or society that is undesirable or frightening. It is translated as “not-good place”, an antonym of utopia, a term that was coined by Sir Thomas More and figures as the title of his most well-known work, Utopia (the blueprint for an ideal society with no crime or poverty). Dystopian societies appear in many artistic works, particularly in stories set in the future. Some of the most famous examples are 1984 and Brave New World. Dystopias are often characterized by dehumanization, totalitarian governments, environmental disaster, or other characteristics associated with a cataclysmic decline in society. Dystopian societies appear in many subgenres of fiction and are often used to draw attention to real-world issues regarding society, environment, politics, economics, religion, psychology, ethics, science, and/or technology.

Each one of us, in our own way, is idealistic but in practice, how much freedom do we really give others when it comes to being vocal with our opinions of another’s behavior, lifestyle or beliefs?

This week in Mollyville we hook up with none other than the notorious Goldie, the hooker with a heart of coal and pockets full of gold. She has definite ideas about her worth and isn’t willing to compromise an inch. Why should she?

After all we only get the respect we demand.

Musical features in this episode are “Lagos 2030 A.D.” by Otis McDonald and “Behind Closed Doors” by Otis McDonald. Additional sounds by Maxximillian Dafoe.

Special in this episode: A trailer from The Family Tree Podcast—A magical realist drama about family, belonging, change and identity. It’s a compelling mystery. The trailer plays after the outro, and I guarantee you’ll be intrigued. It’s one of my latest obsessions. There’s even a hotline to call with your own theories about what  happened to… well, I won’t spoil it. After the episode, stay and give a listen.

Last we left the Olsens, Eva told Bjorn that their relationship with Goldie was over. Since then, Kristoff and Antigone Olsen have become despondent and Bjorn, plagued with unanswered questions and dangerous ideas, is in distress. But what about Eva…?

Last we left Bjørn, he’d been walking toward home after a night on the town with his crush, the most captivating creature he’d ever met, the beautiful Goldie. Passing up an opportunity to take their physical relationship to the next level, Bjørn excused himself and went home to his wife, Eva who seems rarely to be at home…

There’s infidelity in the Olsen house, a reversal of fortune as things seem to be working out for Bjørn, and a harbinger of trouble to come.

But first, a few words about the protagonist of the Mollyville Dystopian Fiction Podcast—a closer look at Bjørn Olsen, the man with a heart of gold and a dark past…
