Westworld The Podcast

If you love dystopian sci-fi and you haven’t watched “Black Mirror,” you need to change that immediately. A great episode to start with (and one that relates heavily to the themes of “Westworld”) is “Be Right Back.” Craig and Jake discuss the episode’s commentary on grief (3:19), how we portray ourselves online (8:59), consumerism (16:45), the problems with the androids (27:59), the brilliant foreshadowing (31:47), and the literary tradition of this episode’s premise (35:23).
