Drinks and Dystopia - The Podcast

In a world where time travel is real - We skip back to the beginning and tune into these innocent weirdos who thought they'd have the stamina to make a podcast every week.

Hello! Since we are living in an actual Dystopia we thought instead of looking at what might happen during a dystopia we'd discuss what might happen after this is all over. We decided to try and look at the brighter side of things. We wanted to mention that we know a lot of horrible things are happening in the world at the moment but since we are locked inside and our specialty is normally Dystopias - that looking towards a Utopia for a change might be more helpful to put out into the world....

This week Lee and Tania discuss the most under-rated movies, IQ tests and the possibility that Danny Devito is the real smart one in Twins.

AHOY AHOY! Welcome to season 2 of Drinks and Dystopia. *Warning - this week's episode has spoilers for End Game * This week we are disagreeing about prophecies and talking about the world after Thanos's dusted return. Would insurance pay out for the dusted, would the world now know that talking raccoon's are real and many other questions. Utopia, midtopia or dystopia? We have an exciting new editor who is helping us update more regularly.So hopefully we should air another episode in two...

We are back and this week we delve deep into the nerdy world of Star Trek and Star Wars. If Jedi roamed the lands how would the world change? Who is your favourite captain? What job would you want on the Enterprise? I hope you are all having a lovely week. If you have any questions, please get in touch. We'd love to hear from you :)

Hello you lovely lot. This week we think about a world where all humans have tails. It was suggested by my brother and boy did we run wild with the ideas (and puns). What do you think? Would you want a tail and if you did have one , which animals tail would you want? Dystopia, Utopia or Midtopia...what do you think?

This week we have a special guest, Will Robson . We talk about living in games, living as a line in the 2d world and how we'd live if we had a hyper loop. Dystopia, Midtopia or Utopia. What do you think? Will Robson - Instagram @_willrobson

Hello, we've been away for a while but we are back and this week Lee is in charge. He is pondering Matrioshka brain's, Dyson spheres and diamond filled skies. I do my best to be devil's advocate. We have a special guest this week, Ryan Case from Seattle who poses our fantastic mini question. What do you think? What would happen when we need more fuel than the earth could provide? Dystopia, Utopia or Midtopia?

This week we try to work out what it would be like to live in a world with a curfew and decide the ridiculous reasons for why that might happen. Lee has some horrible ideas about what happens when the lights go out and Tania wants to rebel by holding plays in the park. A weird short episode from two weird people.

This week we discuss a world where animals can tell us their darkest secrets. Lee decides that dogs are excellent judges of character and we both are baffled by science....no changes there then.

This week I mess with Lee's head and ask him to question virtual morality. We discuss cyborg arms, the best ships of Sci fi and disappointed 99th level wizards. What do you guys think? If we spent all of our time in the virtual world, would our morals cross over? Dystopia, Midtopia or Utopoia? References mentioned: Ready_Player_One - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ready_Player_One

This week we explore what a world would look like if dogs evolved to be all powerful. We decide if dogs have arms, how they'd wear trousers and if it would be a Mad Max dystopia or a beautiful futuristic Utopia. What do you think? Utopia, Dystopia or Midtopia?

This week Lee is in charge. We discuss living in a world where we are forced to feel nothing. We reveal childhood secrets, discuss the difference between emotions and sensations, and ask the important question...do geckos have willies? Thank you to Lee's friend and listener Dwayne for this weeks 'New World Rule'. If anyone has any burning questions or suggestions let us know and we will take your idea, ruin it and make you wish you'd never suggested it. Have a great week everyone.

This week we discuss an idea Kirk and Ender had a hard time with. We talk politics, make rude sci fi puns and get interrupted by cookies. What do you think about this weeks episode? Would you want to live there because we aren't sure. Mentioned this week: * Star Trek - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Taste_of_Armageddon * Nichie - http://www.wisecrack.co/shows/wisecrackedition/the-philosophy-of-rick-and-morty/

This week we try to salvage an episode that was two thirds deleted, we talk far too much about Kevin Bacon and discuss if having to look at yourself in the mirror determines your moral values. Things we mention: * He-man Insurance Ads https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PgTjhx1VLw * Muppet Babies Aren't For You - Article http://www.toughpigs.com/muppet-babies-4-kids/ * Books you should all read - Rendezvous With Rama https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendezvous_with_Rama * Hollow Man...

We're back and this week we are talking about Sci Fi mom's, pooping wombats and pounds being replaced by seconds. We decide if we'd want to be immortal and I teach Lee a new word. This weeks show idea comes to us from Thom Jones ( Cereal Arsonist - https://www.twitch.tv/cerealarsonisttm) What do you think about this weeks world? Dystopia , Midtopia or Utopia? Things mentioned this week: J.R.R. Tolkien Quote: "I cordially dislike allegory in all its manifestations, and always have done so...

This week we talk about A.I and what we should do when a computer passes the Turing Test. Will we use it for good or evil? Will it want to take over or will it become a stand up comic ? Lee brings up some interesting points and Tania drinks a lot of wine. What do you think? What will A.I be used for and will it want to destroy all humans? Dystopia, Utopia or Midtopia? You decide.

This week we talk about the new Netflix film 'Bright'. We were both really excited to watch this film and to see what a movie could do with the concept of 'Lord of the Rings' brought into the modern world. It's safe to say that we were disappointed. So this week we try our hands at world building. We discuss if it's racist to ride a centaur, slugs with faces and hippy elves. What did you think of the movie? Is there anything we missed or overlooked? How do you guys think this world could...

What if we really were all created equal? A perfect world or an excuse to get a facial tattoo? We also talk about the benefits of being a hobbit, animal side kicks and sexy ants. What do you think would happen if everyone looked the exact same? Would you like it? Who would you want the world to look like ?

This week we sneak into a world that Douglas Adams would feel very at home in. Tania becomes convinced that money can buy you happiness and that luck is real. Lee tries to talk some sense into her. We are confused , yet quite upbeat in this weeks episode. Tell us what you think. Does luck already exist in the world? Would the world be better if we could give out luck? Can you survive this podcast if you drink every time we say the word 'luck'....probably not. Utopia, midtopia or dystopia?...
