Is It Bad If We Stop Going Outside in the Future? Does A Short Story From 1955 Accurately Describe Us Today? Time for Science Fiction and Isaac Asimov!

The Best Paragraph I've Read: On April 12, 2117, the field-modulator brake-valve in the Door belonging to Mrs. Richard Hanshaw depolarized for reasons unknown. As a result, Mrs. Hanshaw's day was completely upset and her son, Richard, Jr., first developed his strange neurosis. It was not the type of thing you would find listed as a neurosis in the usual textbooks and certainly young Richard behaved, in most respects, just as a well-brought-up twelve-year-old in prosperous circumstances ought to behave. And yet from April 12 on, Richard Hanshaw, Jr., could only with regret ever persuade himself to go through a Door. This paragraph comes from the short story "It's Such a Beautiful Day."  The story was written by Isaac Asimov.  You can read the story here: https://novels80.com/the-complete-stories/its-such-a-beautiful-day-993235.html You can also find the short story in collections written by Isaac Asimov here: https://www.amazon.com/Isaac-Asimov-Complete-Stories-Vol/dp/038541627X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=MY5JC35HUZ8L&dchild=1&keywords=isaac+asimov+short+stories&qid=1616527980&s=books&sprefix=short+stories+isaac+as%2Cstripbooks%2C162&sr=1-1 Zac and Don discuss the short story and whether humans should care if they don't go outside anymore.   Zac and Don also discuss Plato's allegory of The Cave.  You can read more about the allegory here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegory_of_the_cave
