Long before the Decepticons battled the Autobots, an English philosopher by the name of Jeremy Bentham came up with a building design called a Panopticon. What benevolent reason did he design these buildings for? Prisons of course! This week, Connor and Dan discuss the bizarre misguided attempt and utilitarian harmony Bentham made when he designed the Panopticon. They also talk about Transformers because why not?
