When all our needs are met, the remaining problems become more frivolous. In this episode, AE and girlfriend Mona read "Utopia, Lol" by Jamie Wahls (jamiewahls.com). Originally published in the June 2017 issue of Strange Horizons, this story is about a cryogenically frozen man waking up to a digital utopian future and the guide who helps him.
Sit back and get ready for a Halloween episode that is tangentially related to Halloween. You can read along to the story here: http://strangehorizons.com/fiction/utopia-lol. You can also listen to Anaea Lay's reading of the story here: http://strangehorizons.com/podcasts/podcast-utopia-lol
Some of the music comes from Looperman (looperman.com), specifically users alayan10, cheesydjanonymouse, auver, and romanul12341 (all used in the LOTR U sequence). Otherwise, the source of Music: http://www.purple-planet.com. Great thanks to them for providing that royalty free. Follow the show on Facebook (@SkiffilyPodcast) and Twitter (@SkiffilyPodcast).
