Entropy Rising
Entropy Rising is a science fiction podcast and futurism podcast that explores the real science behind the future of humanity.
Hosted by Jacob Hyatt and Lucas, this sci-fi podcast breaks down topics like space exploration, Dyson swarms, interstellar travel, AI, and advanced civilizations using real engineering and physics.
If you’re looking for a science fiction podcast that goes beyond stories and asks what’s actually possible, this show connects speculative ideas to real-world science.
Each episode covers big questions like:
- Could we colonize Venus or Mars?
- What would a Dyson swarm actually look like?
- Are we alone in the universe?
- How would space warfare really work?
Whether you’re into speculative fiction, engineering podcasts, or space exploration podcasts, Entropy Rising gives you grounded, no-BS explanations of the future.
New episodes explore the intersection of science fiction, technology, and reality, built for listeners who want more than surface-level takes.

Post-Scarcity: When Nothing Is Rare, What Matters?

What happens when scarcity disappears? In this episode of Entropy Rising, Jacob and Lucas explore the idea of a post-scarcity civilization — a future where food, energy, and even housing are so abundant they stop being economic factors. But does abundance guarantee happiness, or does it create new problems?
We break down the levels of post-scarcity (from basic survival to simulated utopia), question whether inequality and control still exist in an age of abundance, and debate the biggest paradox of all: if nothing is scarce, what still gives life meaning?
From Star Trek’s replicators to Black Mirror–style dystopias, we’ll dive into the promises and dangers of a world beyond scarcity — and ask whether humanity is ready for it.
