George Orwell wrote a book called 1984 where he predicted a future where we will be controlled by the things we hate. Aldous Huxley wrote a book called Brave New World where he predicted a world where we will be controlled by the things we love.


In this podcast, David provides an introduction to the conversation started by Neil Postman who argues that Huxley, not Orwell, was right and how this relates to our modern world with screens.
