Douglas Rushkoff is joined by storyteller and thinker Catherine Connors to explore Pope Leo XIV’s remarkable intervention into the AI debate. Together, they unpack his critique of transhumanism, technological inevitability and Silicon Valley’s vision of human progress and his radical case for the dignity, imperfection and magnificence of being human.

What if anarchism isn’t chaos, but a way of putting human beings back in charge of their own lives? Douglas Rushkoff is joined by former British diplomat Carne Ross, for a conversation about power, democracy, mutual aid, and what it actually takes to change the systems governing our lives.
Ross argues that the means are the ends: we don’t have to wait for a revolution, a new president, or some imagined future society to begin living differently. Instead, meet your neighbors. Share tools. Organize around the needs of your community. Create spaces where everyone affected by a decision has a voice. Rebuild the social relationships that an atomized society has allowed to disappear.

Rushkoff breaks down why modern money acts like a forever chemical: A toxic, non-decaying asset designed to accumulate at the top of the pyramid rather than support living communities.
Rushkoff traces how central currencies replaced organic, local exchange systems to enforce debt and growth mandates. He exposes how this same extractive logic links legacy finance, crypto grifts, and the current AI token bubble, burning real-world resources to convert living human thought and energy into dead digital symbols.
Learn how we can resist the bullshit economy by shifting toward systems that favor flow, life, and human connection over permanent capital.

Are we so focused on saving the world that we’re forgetting how to care for it?  
Rushkoff explores the paralyzing ambient terror of the meta-crisis, polycrisis, and impending societal collapse. Recounting a transformative personal experience sitting at the bedside of a dying relative, Rushkoff re-evaluates the urge to fix everything through abstract strategies and grand interventions.
Instead of treating the future as an engineering problem to solve, what happens if we shift from being agents of change to agents of care? What if our most radical act of resistance isn't another techno-fix or activist bypass, but serving as death doulas for a failing industrial system, and birth doulas for the human-centered world waiting to take its place?
