Have you ever watched an apocalyptic sci-fi movie and wondered,

could any of this really happen?

I'm Carrie Bichey and on hypothetical,

we explore what if questions two ways through speculative science fiction and

through insight from the world's most brilliant scientists and spoiler alert your

favorite sci-fi movies aren't nearly as far-fetched as you may think.

Time travel with me into our possible futures on Hypothetical.

New episodes every Tuesday available on all podcast apps.

That's Hyperhetical, H-Y-P-E-R-T-E-T-I-C-A-L. Oh, hi there and welcome to the Igen, UK podcast with me Simon Cardi and Emma Matthews. Hello. I never really thought about it before

sorry Simon but are we like a very nautical themed podcast we kind of do lean heavily into just

any sort of water-based thing, whether that be with or without gravy granules in it.

We do, we do talk a lot about liquids.

Sure.

Yeah, a worrying bit here, that is Matt Jones by the way, is at the top of this running order you've written in Matt's gone intro bit, which is always a worrying sign.

Was it? No it wasn't. No, it had absolutely nothing to do with the podcast whatsoever.

But it was that like, it was somebody saying that like anybody

behind the counter at the shop is boss man regardless of age, gender, like anything that it's

always boss man. And I was was like well why is it both the shop and like if you get a

kebab or something as well like it's totally appropriate for them to be boss man.

That's a certain type of clientele, right?
