Shoulder of Orion: The Blade Runner Podcast

173 // Blade Runner and Loneliness

December 31, 2025·53 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

We often talk about a "loneliness epidemic" in modern society. We're more connected than we've ever been, and yet we're feeling more isolated from one another. Blade Runner, for all of its vibrant street life and urban density, has a profound undercurrent of loneliness. In today's episode, Jaime, Patrick, Peter, and Micah are joined by returning guest Dom for a discussion about loneliness in the world of Blade Runner, and how it reflects some of the loneliness we are seeing in the real world around us all. We wish you a happy and healthy close to 2025, and we'll see you in 2026! // For more on this and our other projects, please visit www.bladerunnerpodcast.com  // If you'd like to join the conversation, find us on our closed Facebook group: Fields of Calantha. // To support the show, please consider visiting www.bladerunnerpodcast.com/support.
