Summary: KMO welcomes Chad Hill, the author of the Hipcrime Vocab blog, to the C-Realm Podcast to carry on the conversation about the future. SF media has transitioned away from Utopian visions of people and societies liberated from drudgery and conflict by advanced technology and good governance to wallowing in depictions of dysfunctional futures. What's up with that? KMO and Chad wrestle with these questions and ponder how we might find our way to a resource-based economy like we see on Star Trek. Music by Not Waving But Drowning.
