Dispatch 22: Environmental Storytelling

Dispatches from Post-Reality ·

2025/07/14

From the liminal, to the holographic, to the fictious, we have explored several different worlds and realities this season. However, there is one world that we can all concretely say is ours. This one, planet Earth. Regardless of what you may believe about the shape, age, or size of our interstellar home address, as far as we know, this is the only place we have. Yet we seem hell bent on making a mess of the whole thing, and the planet is now responding in kind. Not to retread a previous spiel, but

Let's face it, holograms are cool as hell; there's no getting around it. Whether it was a full cover National Geographic, the tiny image on a credit card, or a super cool dragon necklace from the flea-market we've all been mesmerized by one at least once in our life. Well, what if I told you that these little images are tricks; the actual truth is that EVERYTHING IS HOLOGRAM. Come explore the history, uses, and implications of this phenomenon that is at least 75 years old, but maybe is as old as the

Dispatches from Post-Reality ·

2025/06/03

Despite our best efforts we have yet to determine what other dimensions look like. Are they merely mathematical thought experiments designed to make modern physics work? Or are they actually fully developed universes where parallel versions of ourselves go to work at slightly different jobs? In this episode Josh and Dale try to wrap their 3D brains around the possiblity that our observable reality may not be all there is, leading to the question, is it possible that tangible multidimensional spaces

Dispatch 18: Theater Of The Chaotic Mind

2025/05/19

Once again Dear Listener, Dale has decided to foolishly try and convince everyone he is not a nerd by delving needlessly deep into an obscure nerdy topic. Meanwhile Josh is to tired and sick to stop him and is forced to listen to this whole mess. That's right, for this episode we will be talking about the Chaotic TCG, a game you've never heard about. Unless you are Canadian or Danish or something.Correction In this episode I mention that the game and series end because 4Kids went bankrupt. However

Dispatch 17: Lingvo Universala

Dispatches from Post-Reality ·

2025/05/06

Language is pretty cool, if you think about it. We (humans?) have built it up as a tool from simple monosyllabic grunts into elaborate systems of communication with double meanings, deep meanings, and hidden meanings. The question is, is it inevitable that we all end up speaking one language in the end? Or is the likely outcome something both more simple and more complex, and we end up speaking universally through "AI" assisted tools that allow for real time translation? How will this be affected by

As demanded by literally no one, Dale has picked up the gauntlet thrown down by Josh, and the boys debate the merits of "artificial intelligence."Is it the great savior of human potential and productivity that Big Tech wants us to believe, or is it just another novelty without a use case?

Throughout human history we have been trying to decipher our dreams and determine if they truly are a different reality that can only be entered once our concious waking mind takes a backseat.

What is a meme? A meme is just an image that encapsulates a known story about humanity. It can be a scene from a ubiquitious TV show, or a comic strip of a dog sitting on a dumpster surrounded by fire. It can be the image of the Sun shining it’s light on all of creation so that all that is hidden can be revealed. In many ways the history of Tarot is just one part of the history of memes; it’s just one more way that we have, as a species, chosen to encapsulate the story OUR story the tale of the hero
