À propos de cet audio

Silicon Valley just invented time travel. Now, three reluctant heroes race to save the timeline before the resulting tech bubble bursts—and takes all of reality with it—in this satirical, hilariously plausible oral history.

Every few years, Silicon Valley invents a new technology that changes everything, whether you like it or not.

Bored with AI and crypto? Meet the Bleb 1, the world’s first “consumer temporal interface”—a dangerous but powerful personal time machine. And the usual suspects are racing to monetize it.

Swaggering startup bros. Swarming venture capitalists. Sociopathic billionaires.

Sure, they have grandiose dreams to change reality as we know it.

But in the meantime, they’re here to steal limited-edition Doritos from the 1990s, kill their past selves for TikTok clout, and drag the surveillance state into the fourth dimension.

As the time-travel bubble soars to epic heights, a few unlikely heroes scramble to end up on the winning side—and, just maybe, to save reality along the way. This oral history, packed with exclusive interviews and secret corporate documents, is their story. Let it be a warning to us all.

After all, those who do not understand history are doomed to screw it up.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“A funny and distressingly realistic depiction of how Silicon Valley would handle time machines as a consumer product . . . Propelled by awesome characters and inventive twists—and a bittersweet ending that I can’t stop thinking about.”—Andy Weir, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Project Hail Mary and The Martian

Paradox Inc. is as miraculous as time travel itself. It’s both a hilarious sendup of corporate life and a savagely smart take on the reckless hubris of the people who are running Silicon Valley today. Please tell me there’s going to be a movie!”—Dan Lyons, New York Times bestselling author of Disrupted

“Forrest Brazeal has pulled off something that seems impossible—Paradox Inc. is a pitch-perfect parody of Silicon Valley and a total thrill ride. This is the merciless satire that the tech bros heedlessly steering the world toward oblivion deserve.”—Zeke Faux, international bestselling author of Number Go Up

“A rollicking, hilarious journey through the ambition and absurdity of the tech industry . . . Equal parts cutting satire and page-turning science fiction, with razor sharp observations about the corporate inanity of Silicon Valley and several passages that left me crying with laughter . . . I tore through it.”—Jakob Kerr, author of Dead Money
