Time for another cup of cocoa, with host Maty Parzival and guest Pigeon! And this time the jumping off point is The Amelia Project's episode 5: Siiri. It's an episode that has proved somewhat prophetic! This conversation assesses the episode nine years on, and discusses how the conversation around AI has moved on since then. To watch the video version and read the Siiri case file, consider becoming a patron!

A very special guest in Maty's podcast studio today, it's Alan (aka Arthur) Burgon! 

The focus of this conversation is the episode Maine Moepirt Arthur, so if you haven't caught up on Season 5 yet, maybe wait with listening to this, to avoid spoilers.

Alan talks about finding The Interviewer's backstory, his voice, his relationship with Alvina and Kozlowski, the first time the character used the f-word, and so much more. 

It's a fascinating conversation, and because this is One More Cocoa, expect detours and digressions about ducks and penguins, as well as cameos by Maty's cat and Alan's son (although you'll have to watch the video version of Patreon to see those)

Sockrates also makes a brief appearance, which is a good reminder that our live shows (and screenings) in London are now just a few weeks away! Get you tickets for Laplace's Demon and Delivery After Dark at https://theatreship.co.uk and if you can't come to London, the shows will be available to stream here on Patreon for members of all paid Patreon tiers (or you can purchase individual access here!)

Happy listening!

We're shaking up the One More Cocoa format! Instead of working our way chronologically through Season 1, we'll now also be going backwards from the end of Season 5... and meet somewhere in the middle! 

Which means that today's episode is about the Season 5 Finale, Dear Dawn Many Deaths Parts 1 & 2.  Maty is joined by Oystein Ulsberg Brager, co-creator of The Amelia Project. They talk about writing, directing, comedy, complexity, as always with a healthy dose of deviation and digression.
