On this episode we discuss Striking Vipers episode from the Netflix show Black Mirror. Striking Vipers deals with a virtual reality game played between two friends and the decisions that were made. Black Mirror is an anthology series with 5 seasons and 22 episodes that explores technology and what it can cause. I had tried to watch the pilot episode and ended up not finishing it, but a friend chose this specific episode to talk about because for her love of video games and also how it really makes you think.
