Are we living in a simulation? If you said yes, you’re wrong. If you said no, you’re also wrong, because the correct answer is, who cares? It would literally change nothing about your life as it currently stands. So why even worry, man? If you’re a fictional character, on the other hand, you should DEFINITELY be worrying because you’re most likely going to die. And that’s what Cam and Izzy are here to talk to you about. Simulations in pop culture. Not to be confused with Simulants or stimulants. But all those glorious pop culture moments that are the sci-fi version of “Wait?! It was all just a dream?!”
The most appropriate game of "Is This Real or Something I Made Up?" is the finale to this thought provoking episode. SO get your thinking caps on, or barring that, your tinfoil hats.
