Richard and Karl explore the philosophical implications of time travel narratives in fiction while weaving through personal anecdotes about funeral invitations and professional boundaries.
• Karl shares a story about receiving a funeral invitation for an ex-employee from the employee's grandmother
• Richard discusses his recent academic adventures and collecting promotional swag from campus events
• The hosts break down five frameworks of time travel in fiction: fixed timeline, dynamic timeline, multiverse, time loop, and non-linear time
• Analysis of time travel execution in various media including Steins Gate, Back to the Future, Dragon Ball, and Marvel's Avengers
• Discussion of why some approaches to time travel storytelling succeed while others inevitably create plot holes
• Exploration of philosophical questions including whether decisions made under emotional manipulation are truly free choices
• Hypothetical scenarios including which animals would be most sarcastic if they could talk and societal impacts if the moon became a mirror
• Debate about whether to accept a job as a lottery-winning friend's personal chauffeur
Make your funeral interesting enough for us to attend - perhaps with a Super Smash Bros tournament where the winner gets your belongings.
