My last night! I got to get you cleaned up,\u201d Bucky says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhy? Where are we going?\u201d Steve asks, wincing slightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe future,\u201d Bucky replies with a grin, handing Steve a newspaper. A bold ad proclaims \u201cWorld Exhibition of Tomorrow &#8211; 1943.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scene dissolves to a vibrant outdoor exhibition at night. A gleaming Unisphere sparkles with glowing fountains, a monorail gliding overhead. Bucky and Steve descend a terrace of short stairs, the crowd buzzing around them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t see what the problem is,\u201d Bucky says, scanning the lively scene. \u201cYou\u2019re about to be the last eligible man in New York. You know there\u2019s three and a half million women here?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Steve shrugs, a wry smile tugging at his lips. \u201cWell, I\u2019d settle for just one.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGood thing I took care of that,\u201d Bucky says, waving at a girl approaching them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHey, Bucky!\u201d the girl calls, smiling brightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Steve glances at Bucky, skeptical. \u201cWhat\u2019d you tell her about me?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOnly the good stuff,\u201d Bucky replies with a wink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The scene shifts to a large exhibit amphitheater, where a display reads \u201cDr. Fineas Horton Presents The Synthetic Man\u201d above a costumed mannequin. An announcer\u2019s voice booms, \u201cWelcome to the Modern Marvels Pavilion and the World of Tomorrow! A greater world. A better world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOh, my God! It\u2019s starting!\u201d the girl exclaims, grabbing Bucky\u2019s arm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On stage, five top-hatted women in tights stand before a 1940s automobile, its wheels conspicuously absent. A lady announcer steps forward, her voice ringing out, \u201cLadies and gentlemen, Mr. Howard Stark!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TOPIC: Hosts discuss Host Brian Fies' graphic novel, \"Whatever Happened to the World of Tomorrow?\"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3424,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"episode_type":"audio","audio_file":"https:\/\/www.capminute.com\/cm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/cap012.mp3","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"https:\/\/www.capminute.com\/cm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/cap000-mp3-image-scaled.jpg","cover_image_id":"4116","duration":"00:25:32","filesize":"26.43M","filesize_raw":"27708841","date_recorded":"2025-12-26","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"12","itunes_title":"Minute 012: Where are We Going?
