  • WIF 017: Law & Order? Part 1- RoBoPoPoPoFo

    Would It Fly: A mechanized/robotic police force?

    Attention WIF passengers. we’re switching this flight over to auto-pilot, since we all know we can trust computers with our lives. This journey is our first of three discussions into the future of law enforcement. Our first destination, Robo-Cops, or as we refer to them, a RoBoPoPoPoFo (Robotic-Police Police Force). Dead or alive, you’re coming with us, punk.

  • WIF 016: Putting on Genes, One Leg at a Time

    Would It Fly: A federal DNA database, recording the profiles of every U.S. citizen?

    This week we take off towards an evolutionary step in an already present idea.  Millions of U.S. citizens, primarily criminal offenders, currently have DNA profiles within a federal database.  However, we're talking about taking this further an encompassing, every citizen.

    I apologize for the quality of this episode, as it wasn’t brought to my attention, until after we landed, that my co-pilot had failed to fully pressurize the cabin, and allowed some heavy air-flow causing some interference in the sound quality. Maybe recording from an open cockpit rather than an actual sound studio, wasn’t the best choice for a audio-based media.

    Would It Fly: Clean Burning?

     Attention WIF passengers, please ensure you know how to use the oxygen-masks that drop from over-head, as this episode may get a little smokey.  We're joined by new co-pilot, Max Pearson, who's going to fly us into uncharted territory regarding a pollution solution, CLEAN BURNING.

    Would It Fly: Medieval Times off-shoot dinner theaters?
     
    Whether you’re still traveling home from the family holiday, or you’d managed to already escape earlier in the weekend, please relax with this week’s in-flight entertainment, from WIFAirlines; historic dinner theater.
    Now we know this is not entirely a new concept and there are existing examples that prove the potential, but this week, joined by co-pilot Andrew Stickler, we’re steering into a discussion on how our own versions would match up comparably.
    So if you’ve ever wanted to watch a high noon showdown while chomping away at meat and potatoes, or dine on sushi and sake while witnessing a warrior regain his honor through seppuku, then this is an episode for you.
