I've fallen woefully behind on my Escape Pod listening but since I just listened to this episode I wanted to leave a comment regarding a side of this story that was hinted at in the ending commentary but I didn't see addressed here...maybe I missed it? as I'm not a pro at this...
First it is absolutely NOT clear, contrary to the end commentary, that the antisemitic side of this story was not intended. It plays into all the outlandish conspiracy theories about Jews - that they control the media, are planning to take over the world, control the banks, create a world government...it is way too obvious to not be addressed.
Second every story whether the author acknowledges it or not builds on history or "baggage" as it's (somewhat) derogatorily referred to. The fact that people will read into the story should not be simply ignored but should honestly be addressed.
Thirdly, simply looking at the story, it was boring. No new insight was gained about the protagonist, that the Einsteins were planning a 'world government' was predictable and nothing new, and the quick ending with the main character not caring what was going to happen made no sense.
