And they're back! What happens when our world heritage is in danger? There's only one man who can save it! Enter the UN's secret weapon: a bitter hero who loves humanity so much he'd kill us all to save it. But first, why does Russian sci-fi embrace dirt and suffering and what's the problem with the 3 Body Problem? Other than the astrophysics problem in the title, obviously. I'm realizing that's an awkward way to phrase it. I mean the show has a fundamental problem but I don't mean fundamental like the building blocks of the Universe, so less fundamental than that but pretty basic to the idea of the show. Actually, that kind of puts it all in perspective. Who cares about eight episodes of a streaming show when you hold it up against the sheer scale and complexity of the Universe? And, oh god, if the show doesn't matter, what about a podcast episode about the show?! What are we even doing with our lives?Anyway, enjoy!  Reach the pod at DontEncourage@gmail.com
