I'm Phil McCracken.

The Voice Behind the Voice.

And thank you for listening.

All right.

Now, of course, I completely blew the script and did not intro with the intro question, which now I have forgotten.

So would you help me out there if you can?

Okay, well, I think the intro is, you know, it was, is it a question of a dialectic between 1984 and Brave New World?

You know, one's good and one's bad.

I don't think you can look at them that way.

Or Huxley-Orwell, good, bad.

I don't think we can look at them that way.

I think both of them have pieces of the puzzle.

And if you look at both books, you see the extremes on either end, on what the oligarchs,

what the people in power of this world will do to retain and get power.

And they'll do any way they can.

They'll go either Orwell's way or Huxley's way, when necessary.

And the speculation I have and that I've been thinking about is,

I think at first there's a little more of Orwell than Huxley,

but then again, can you establish a dictatorship going strictly Huxley's way?

I don't know.
