Douglas Rushkoff makes a return appearance to the series with fresh insights on our core question of What Could Possibly Go Right? Listen to his previous interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAmzne7KPmM

Douglas Rushkoff is an author and documentarian who studies human autonomy in a digital age. Rushkoff’s work explores how different technological environments change our relationship to narrative, money, power, and one another. Named one of the “world’s ten most influential intellectuals” by MIT, his twenty books include the recently published Team Human, based on his podcast. Others include bestsellers Present Shock, Throwing Rocks and the Google Bus, Program or Be Programmed, Life Inc, and Media Virus. He also made the PBS Frontline documentaries Generation Like, The Persuaders, and Merchants of Cool.

He addresses the question of “What Could Possibly Go Right?” with thoughts including:

-The importance of contentment in “just less” and acknowledging the enoughness we have already

-The striving for connection with others, in a context where the “human organism has reached its peak of loneliness and is trying to find itself again”

-That the “digital realm is so much about choice” and we can use technology for light or dark

-The need for real-life interactions as an antithesis to technologies which “are intentionally decalibrating; they destabilize you and your nervous system”
