Death Clocks & the Morbid Nature of Time

Time can be a truly scary concept. In this episode, we investigate the personification of time, through imagery and art. We talk about chronophobia, the fear of time, and how Doomsday Clocks and Millennium Clocks exacerbate that fear. We take a look at what some of the world's richest people and most advanced scientific minds are doing to stop the progression of time. And finally, we examine how external forces like technology and the COVID pandemic have distorted our relationship with time, warping an already fragile mental construct.
