Summary
This week, we take a break from chapter-by-chapter coverage to tackle one of science fiction's biggest questions: If the universe should be teeming with life, why haven't we found any? Disclaimer: This episode covers content from the climax of A Parade of Horribles. Proceed with caution. We explore the Fermi Paradox, the Great Filter, advanced civilizations, galactic super predators, and the possibility that humanity may be asking the wrong questions entirely. Along the way, we connect these ideas to some of the biggest themes in Dungeon Crawler Carl, including the Primals, the Eulogist, and the AI's revelations in A Parade of Horribles. Could the Fermi Paradox be the key to understanding the larger story unfolding across the series? All the links: linktr.ee/princesspossee
