Rebroadcasting 0G19: Black Mirror, Hang the DJ, Part 1: Newcomb's Paradox
Sep 2, 2020
We're
on break this week so we're rebroadcasting the origin story of The
Box! All hail the box!:
We've
returned to Black Mirror to talk about one of the episodes that
started this all, Hand the DJ. Or maybe we're just yet another
simulation of that in a test by a marketing brand to see if this
show would work. Hard to say, really.
