Welcome to Episode 2 of the Implausipod! In this episode we'll look at the use of genre in Westworld, centred around Season 4 Episode 3 Annees Folles.  The show has had an deep and ongoing relation with genre since it's beginning, and has grown since Season 2.  Westworld asks us if genre is an aesthetic, which can be transposed upon the structure of the media that we participate with?  We look at the larger genres that Westworld is situated in and tries to break out of, including cyberpunk, the western, and others, and look at how genre is employed in KW Jeter's novel Noir and in the TTRPG Shadowrun.
