So, it turns out the world didn't end last week.
And while it might seem like the events of the last year or so are the disease, maybe they're really just the symptoms; maybe they're really just signs of the dystopia around us.
But, then: Which dystopia?
Probably not Mad Max, right? But maybe 1984? Maybe The Handmaid's Tale? Maybe even some of The Hunger Games? (Tell me the Stanley Tucci character doesn't bring certain people to mind.)
This hour we try to figure out which dystopian future we're already living in.
