HyperThetical
The future is full of epic ?what ifs." What if we could read minds? What if a hostile attack took down our nation?s power grid? In every episode of Hyperthetical, host Kerry Bishé asks one of these questions. Then, we explore that question two ways - through speculative science fiction, and through insight from the world?s most brilliant scientists. The result is a genre-bending story woven with real facts and science, bringing together education and imagination. Time travel into a near-future where our biggest ?what ifs? become ?now whats??
