THE STATE OF THE FUTURE with Brett and Rob

The Futurists

About this episode

The future is complicated!  Brett King and Rob Tercek trace the trajectory of several major economic, political, and technology trends, including:  the rising cost of home ownership, price-fixing scams that crank up apartment rent, the rising cost of insurance due to climate change, the dramatic increase in populist movements, the politics of resentment in democracies worldwide, and the advent of  quantum computing.  At the point where these trends intersect, the world becomes more complicated and interesting. It’s not all gloom and doom. Brett and Rob talk about opportunities and the expanding cone of possibility, too.
