The creator of Small Robots (@smolrobots) joins us for one of our most serious and most silly episodes. With the help of a large cast of Thomas's adorable robot characters, we take a range of approaches from the philosophical to the daft to: robots in culture, AI, transhumanism, immigration, gender reveal parties, memes and memetics, A Cyborg Manifesto, killer robots, F1, alpacas, upturned plugs, and more.  


 


Plus, Cities For Life Day.
