Episode: Plur1bus: Hive Mind | #369
Description: Plur1bus, a new show on Apple TV, explores humans forming (or being taken over by) a hive mind. The show is interesting in its own right, but the Justin thinks the show illustrates some interesting economic lessons.

Join the Gwartney team for a discussion about what is lost, and what is left, when humans really do form a single sentient collective.
