news wave: you gotta shoot me in the head!

Taking the title of most unsettling thing of the week is myself in the future man nappy, ergo I gain the title of You Gotta Shoot 'Em In The Head! Nappy can be seen here in all its glory:

Now here are the news links for today's show.

Returning from our nightmare hellscape of a future wasteland, two chrono-hoppers, Gerald and Zan, will commence transmission on all internet frequencies detailing the future of medicine, why humans are dressing like they're dancers in a bad Madonna video, government interaction with robot slavers and why even after they admit they desire our bloody downfall, we're still willing to swap baby batter with androids. All this and a playlist concerning the sounds of the future, concluding Get Back To 8-bit's fortnight of time and space tunes. You should consider the invite to our festival of frivolity: Thursday, 14:00-15:00

1.21 gigawatts!

Proving that time is circular, Get Back To 8-bit returns this week to finish the fight and present part two of the fortnight of quantum mess: Songs about the FUTURE! Join me and she-geek extraordinare, Zan, as we discuss the possibilities of what might be, in the regular You Gotta Shoot 'Em In The Head news assault, all of which will occur whilst we rock out like the Time Lords we are. It's in the not too distant future, this Thursday A.D. 14:00-15:00 only on subcity.org.
