Episode Description

You thought the conspiracy theories over 5G were bad but had stopped - well, we can only hope it won't all happen again because, wait for it, plans for 6G are afoot. Surely, asks Near Futurist podcaster Guy Clapperton. we don't need it, isn't 5G fast enough? That's until our guest, Prof. Dimitra Simeonidou, head of the UK 6G Testbed, called Joiner (website https://www.bristol.ac.uk/research/groups/smart/projects/joiner/), reminds him that 5G signals tend to fail immediately you get on a two hour train journey or something.

She also explores how the metaverse might actually happen but with a more "real" experience than you'd get from modern networks as well as the role of satellite technology.

Tune in here for part 1 of this absorbing interview - part 2 will be here next week.
