That Future Podcast

Coming (pretty) soon... Season one of https://quitethethingmedia.com/that-future-podcast/ (That Future Podcast) focuses on the future of gaming - specifically Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality (VR), direct brain-computer interface (BCI) and Cloud Gaming (no abbreviation).

We speak to comedians from the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia to try and decipher if our thoughts and worries about the future are shared or more nuanced and specific to where we live. We will also answer the internet's worries as we dive into the important questions that people are asking on some of the many public forums available on the world-wide-web today.

Episodes will be released (weekly) in pairs so you can compare and contrast the differing views of each of our guests side-by-side.

When you watch a true crime documentary, do you constantly think of how you would have done it better?

If criminals really wanted to get rid of the police, wouldn’t they be best off not doing crimes?

Is the perfect crime not one you get away with, but one where someone else is charged with it?

Are true crimes docs just making people better at crime?

Why are we so obsessed with people’s misfortune - someone dies and we can’t get enough of it?

Have you ever heard someone described as ‘happy-go lucky’ that wasn’t dead?

Why is the most expensive coffee on the planet poop?

Wouldn’t it be good if milk stained your teeth white?

Would you buy coffee flavoured water?

Why does Columbia want to keep people awake so much?

Would you date a songwriter, knowing that they will ‘do an Adele’ and write a song about your breakup?

How long into a relationship before you do a little fart in front of them?
