New Show Announcement! 01/11/2023

New Show Announcement! This is a crosspost from our retired podcast, Creek of the Week, which we decided to revisit in order to announce our new project, the High Tech Low Life podcast, or rather The High Tech Low Life Podcast: A Cyberpunk Media Retrospective. We plan to read, watch, and listen to all things cyberpunk, and break em down week by week. Give reviews, ratings, and relate the imagined dystopias of the past, to the emerging dystopia of the present. If you aren't into Dawson's Creek feel free to bounce after the first 15 minutes or so, but here's a secret: Dawson's Creek is dope. You should listen to the whole thing. /episode/index/show/johnny60/id/25571217
