S5E8 - Plague and the Folly of Technological Fixes

This week we are joined by the creator of the epic Twitter account @PlaguePoems, Zachary Loeb, to discuss his research on the Y2K scare and more broadly technological reliance, narratives of destruction and technocratic fixes that obscure social and political root causes of disaster. Hope you all enjoy it!
