Episode 1:
In the early 20th century, there were two great dystopian novels that warned of a future age of tyranny, two models of how the U.S. and the western world would end — Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and George Orwell’s 1984.
Most people feared the 1984 scenario, a takeover by a brutal police state. But the real threat, the real events happening now, are right out of Huxley’s Brave New World, instead. A future in which everyone’s social status is determined by the government. And a future in which the government controls your thoughts.
Listen to this pilot episode of the Free World Theory podcast, then look around. The people of Brave New World are everywhere — people who actually enjoy being slaves.
