2.07 Everything is a Simulation

<p>Episode Hosts: Kyle, Allison, and Emma</p> <p>Today's Trope: <strong>Everything is a Simulation (a.k.a. the awful truth about your world). </strong>In science fiction and fantasy, sometimes the truth about the world is hidden from the masses because it’s so horrible. <em>You’re living in a simulation. We’re raising you to be fed to a multi-tentacled monster that demands sacrifices. Everyone is dead and this is actually hell.</em> The mystery of this awful truth is built up throughout the story, so you want to know, even though you really <em>don’t</em> want to know.</p> <p>Stories Covered: <em>Sword Art Online</em>, <em>The Good Place</em>, <em>WandaVision</em></p> <p>Produced by Mythos &amp; Ink.</p> <p>Announcement Music: “Coffee Beats” by Aaron Parsons (used with permission).</p>
