In this episode, Benny and I define the dystopian genre, with numerous examples from all your favs (Parable of the Sower, Nineteen Eighty-Four, The Handmaid’s Tale). With this totally, absolutely-not-amorphous definition in place, we analyze Bindlestaff Studios fantastic play “Forbidden Futures” and general gawk at how well they broke and reinvented all the tropes. Also, some round about shit-taking on American neo-colonial polices. Enjoy!
