Podcast # 642 – Robots & Androids on TV – 1707.09

This week I cover a special topic.  I decided to do a whole show on robots, androids and synthetic humans as seen on TV.  This is a big and popular subject in Sci-Fi and one I’ve wanted to cover for some time.  I first give you my spoiler-free review of the new “Spider-Man: Homecoming” film that just opened in theaters last Friday.  Of course I enjoyed it a lot.  I talk a little about my recent TV watching then it’s on to the main subject.

I’ve always loved the idea of having a robot or android to hand out with and it’s been shown in Sci-Fi TV shows for a long time.  I try to give you a broad overview of the topic and talk about some specific examples and the also the whole idea of synthetic humans and what that could mean.  It’s a fascinating topic to discuss and I hope you get a kick out of what I have to say on the matter.  I really enjoyed doing this show.

Next week I’m heading to Europe so there won’t be a new show next weekend.  There will be a guest cast on July 23 and I will return on July 30th with a brand new show.  Feel free to donate to the podcast via Patreon HERE and take care until next time and enjoy your summer.
