    DEATH: How will technology change the way we die?
    Oct 27 2022
    As our lives increasingly exist in digital spaces, how does death fit into our "endless scroll" mentality? In this show, we look at how tech is factoring death into algorithms, how COVID is reviving some older, more intimate death rituals, and we attend a funeral that ends with a boom.

    CLIMATE: Can the kids actually win in their battle against the climate apocalypse?
    Oct 27 2022
    Talking about climate change can be…a bummer. So Futurology ditches the doom-and-gloom headlines to join the teenagers behind the climate activist group Youth Versus Apocalypse. They’re organized, pissed, and anything but resigned in their fight against climate change. But can they actually win?

listened to the trailer sounds like

👎👎👎 if you are interested to listen to some people who are keen on bringing dystopia to life and claiming its going to "revolutionise" everything then sure.

nothing new, just old ideas with better sound quality.

Light on content.

Lacked any meaningful information on the subject matter. If you read the news headlines you'll already be aware of all the content covered in the podcast as it doesn't provide any more substance than that.
