For October's episode we talk to streamer and musician Glitchcat7 about Dune and it's sequels. We go into how things get lost in translation when adapting novels to film, how pulp cinema is embracing long form storytelling and a wider scope in recent decades, post scarcity, mankind's perpetual cycle of consolidation of power and rebellion,the eldrich horror of omniscience, the trolley problem but with mass genocide and whether media exists in a vacuum.
