Digital Doomsday
We were promised flying cars, but got targeted ads and emotional collapse instead.
Welcome to Digital Doomsday (formerly Sci-Fi Realities), a podcast about the many ways technology is actively ruining humanity—one startup, synthetic embryo, and robot uprising at a time.
Hosted by Sophia Ferguson (not a scientist, but deeply concerned), this show dives into real-world sci-fi absurdities: AI gone rogue, de-extinction experiments, designer babies, humanoid Olympics, and the corporations hellbent on coding utopia… or something way worse.
If you’re fascinated, horrified, and just a little too online—this one’s for you.
🧬 Real science.
🤖 Black humor.
💀 No hope? Maybe.
New episodes monthly (or when I get to it). Bring snacks and emotional support.
Digital Doomsday
Dire Wolves, Mammoths & Billionaire Pet Projects
Welcome to the first-ever episode of Sci-Fi Realities — the show where science fiction stops being fiction and starts making headlines.
In this debut, your host Sophia dives into the very real, very bizarre world of de-extinction. From resurrecting dire wolves (Game of Thrones not included) to bio-booting woolly mammoths for "climate reasons" (??), we ask: Is this conservation… or Jurassic Park with a trust fund?
Meet Colossal Biosciences: the world’s first de-extinction startup backed by $435 million, a Harvard mad scientist, and… Tom Brady?! We unpack their mission to revive ancient creatures, debate the ethics, laugh at the absurdity, and spiral into conspiracy (because of course we do).
