Alex offers Patrick a sneak-peek into a futuristic adult playground where folks dabble with almost-human playthings sporting digital brains. You might think it's HBO's Westworld, but ditch the cowboy boots and throw in some memory-imprinted humans and boom! You've tripped into Joss Whedon's 2009 TV series, Dollhouse. We've got digital consciousness, cerebral catastrophes, even an Elon Musk mention and threads (but not the kind you're thinking) as we explore the alarming potential of these mind-bending technologies taking over our brains–and the world!

Theme song is “Satellites” by Swenny.
