In this episode, the two Matts work on a new studio for recording episodes, acknowledge all the stereotypes of the characters in our pre-episode skits, finally release a Writ Wit episode early for the Patreon after slacking off for at least a few months by this point, and talk about the cyberpunk genre of stories in the first of our three-episode set of the various types of "punk" stories. What is cyberpunk defined as? How did it get its name? Are the narrative or visual themes more important in terms of defining the genre? How many seconds would Matt Donald last a cyberpunk comedian? We discuss it all, while donning our cybernetic body implants and neon-blue mohawks, and talk about Blade Runner, A Scanner Darkly, obviously the game Cyberpunk 2077, and Game of Thrones for some reason.
