Scienceish: 1984

With comparisons between the present day and Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four dystopia at an all time high, Rick and Michael delve into the 1949 classic in search of answers. Are humans fatally vulnerable to authority? Does our behaviour change when we think we’re being watched? And are we currently living in 1984? Uplifting stuff.

Featuring: Serbulent Turan, Dr Sander van der Linden, Professor Jean Seaton, Dr Simon Kaye, and Dr Daniel J. Levitin.
