episode Time Crisis : Operation Pre-Cum cover

Description

The boys go deep on one of the early aughts' biggest Spielberg bangers: The Minority Report. A classic in many ways, we delve into the ways in which the steely-grey dystopia of mind criminals and time cops both captures and is eluded by the Present Moment in the year of our lord 2022. Please excuse the various dog noises.

Ivan Meets VR Joe

We pop off the top of the show with a little memento mori vis-à-vis the untimely demise of the DHS' Disinfo Squad which was a recent feature here on the Ow. Then we check in on La France and their holy war against the mongrel English language via the shock troops of the 21st-century culture wars: gamers. Then we spend the rest of the show trying to make sense of this country's insane gun culture and it's relationship to the internet, school-shootings, and tech-based efforts to redress it that are proving woefully inadequate. As part of this, we dive into Mack's excellent recent piece in Gizmodo that you can read here [https://gizmodo.com/axon-police-vr-virtual-reality-training-empathy-taser-b-1848970313] about fancy new VR interventions in police training and their effects or lack-thereof on our boys in blue.
