Come listen to another wonderful wide-ranging free-range episode of Type1Radio Lounge. Psonik is away again, so Miles takes the captain’s chair once again. Steve, Phi and Swami ride shotgun.
This week we start out with more on the reaction to the super-viral Cathy Newman-Jordan Peterson interview on Channel4. Miles recaps how the NSA mission statement is devoid of honesty. We head deeper into the rabbit-hole that is the future with news that children will be assisting the police in the UK. Steve remembers the $8 million in Bitcoin that 50 Cent forgot he had. Swami discusses how California is fighting pollution by clutching at straws. And Steve wants to know if the future will be staffed and populated by an army of monkey clones. And lets not forget about the disasters unfolding in Syria and Afghanistan.
Come and enjoy a little peek down the rabbit hole.
