S2E8 - Gattaca - Bioethics, Eugenics, and Standardized Perfection

from Wholesome and Heathen

Join Wholesome and Heathen as they discuss the 1997 film Gattaca! What does this movie have to say about ideas of perfection, and the long-term implications of genetically engineering humans? And in the 24 years since this movie was released, how close are we to the reality depicted in the film? The answer might scare you, but let Wholesome and Heathen's soothing, dulcet tones guide you through this fascinating and increasingly relevant picture. Join the discussion and tell us what perfect genes you'd splice into your future children at [email protected]
