SHOW NOTES: Love, Death & Robots: Humanity’s Biological Future

From the Grounded Geeks podcast / your co-hosts Aman and Lena

Scenes from the LDR episodes, “Ice,” “Pop Squad,” and “Zima Blue

Welcome to Part 2 of your favorite podcast co-hosts discussing and dissecting the Netflix anthology series, Love, Death & Robots. This week we decided to talk about three specific episodes from the series (Pop Squad, Ice, and Zima Blue) that cover human body modification. Honestly none of these stories seem too far fetched for the real world. So what would society look like if humans could modify their bodies to give themselves some sort of advantage? And what would the world look like if only certain humans chose to modify their bodies and others did not? Buckle up because our conversation gets real philosophical in this one.
