Got a new podcast, don't you?

Yeah, I do.

It's called Dreaming Against the Machine and it just came out pretty recently.

What's about?

Well, it's like a more optimistic version of this podcast.

Yeah, so, you know, I...

spent a lot of time when I was writing my book, More Everything Forever, thinking about terrible people and their bad ideas about the future.

And that made me want to think more about good ideas about the future and people who I actually like.

And so the podcast is about, you know, trying to imagine what a realistic good future could look like.

Yeah.

Can you give me some examples?

Oh, no, I have no idea.

Yeah, still figuring that out.

I mean, that's sort of the podcast is me thinking out loud about these things with different guests each week.

So, yeah, I mean, it's certainly a future where we found a way to wrench power away from these tech billionaires.

And it's not a future that involves like...

you know, space colonization and super intelligent AI.

But more than that, I'm still figuring that out.
