In this episode of Author in the Headlights, Strider sits down with Stephen Ford, a bold voice in satirical and dystopian fiction. Ford’s novels challenge how we think about freedom, truth, safety, and authority, using sharp wit and unsettling “what ifs” to explore societies pushed to ideological extremes. We discuss how good intentions can slide out of control control, how competing authoritarian systems justify themselves, and why our questioning dominant narratives matters more than ever.
