Based on five years of ethnographic research, Allison Pugh offers a humanistic response to the rise of AI, one that probes the profound meaning of human connection, reckons with the challenges of seeing and being seen, and reimagines what we know of ourselves and others in light of the automation challenge. Allison Pugh is a professor of Sociology at Johns Hopkins University. She writes about how people forge connections and find meaning and dignity at work and at home. In her latest book The Last Human Job: The Work of Connecting in a Disconnected World (2024), Pugh develops the concept of “connective labor,” the collaborative work of emotional recognition. This includes three key components—empathetic listening, emotion management, and the act of “witnessing,” in which one individual reflects what they have seen and heard. Drawing on years of interview and observational data, Pugh shows how in sectors like education, healthcare, and therapy, this work is increasingly systemized—a process that she argues makes it ripe for eventual mechanization. In the face of teacher shortages and hype around “chatbot therapists,” Pugh makes a case for connective labor's value to society and the potential consequences for inequality should it become a scarce commodity.

Send us a textWhat happens when we learn to embrace connection in a world designed to keep us disconnected? South African-born Lana Enkelbrecht joins us to share her powerful insights on finding freedom through connected living.Drawing from her experiences across three countries and cultures, Lana reveals how disconnection from our true identity creates literal "dis-ease" in our bodies and relationships. With warmth and wisdom, she explores how our fast-paced, digitally-saturated world has eroded our capacity for genuine connection—with ourselves, with God, and with those around us.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Lana unpacks the Hebrew concept of "shalom"—not just peace, but bringing order and beauty from chaos. She describes practical ways to remain grounded amid life's storms, including intentional moments of presence and curiosity. Rather than seeing challenges as attacks, Lana suggests they reveal heart positions we might otherwise ignore, creating opportunities for transformation.As someone preparing to write a book on connected living, Lana offers profound insights about nurturing connection in families, embracing our purpose, and creating environments where others experience the peace of heaven. Her perspective on approaching life with curiosity rather than judgment opens new pathways for authentic relationship and spiritual growth.Whether you're feeling isolated, overwhelmed, or simply seeking deeper connections, this conversation offers practical wisdom for experiencing the freedom that comes when we live as the connected beings we were designed to be.

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Allison J. Pugh, professor of sociology at Johns Hopkins University, to discuss her recent book The Last Human Job: The Work of Connecting in a Disconnected World. Then, she's joined by Zachary Foster, author of the Palestine Nexus newsletter, to discuss Trump's recent announcements and intentions to "take over" the Gaza Strip. First, Emma runs through updates on the DOJ's restriction on Elon & Cronies' access to Treasury data, skyrocketing union membership among federal employers, Musk's access to Health Payment Systems, cuts to the FAA and the destruction of USAID, the trickle of opposition from Democrats, Trump's intent to ethnically cleanse Gaza, Trump's ban of trans girls and women from athletic competition, US birthright citizenship, global warming, and brutal jail riots out of Congo, before diving a little deeper into the absurdly creepy stunt Trump attempted to pull with signing his most recent anti-trans legislation, and the violently inhumane response from the likes of Jesse Watters. Professor Allison Pugh then joins, diving right into the recent mass proliferation of Artificial Intelligence across industries, and the dangerous encroachment it has initiated on what Pugh has dubbed “Connective Labor” – occupations where the literal act of a human seeing another human for who they are is the underlying engine for the valued outcome for the consumer, be it education, healthcare, hairdressers, sales, securities, and on – pushing society, with help from growing feelings of alienation, into a depersonalization crisis. After briefly expanding on the extension of this intrusion of AI into necessarily interpersonal roles, Professor Pugh looks at how the AI takeover over this work has been driven by this “Moneyball”-esque, Venture Capitalist, industrial-model of efficiency stripping back entire professions to emphasize data collection and output over the actual labor (and human connection) at hand, often resulting in the full-scale degradation of these jobs. Allison and Emma also touch on the AI industry's insistence on selling you their product as a replacement for either a more practical social alternative, human labor, or human connection, before wrapping up the interview with the overwhelming issue of Big Tech's complete capture of our information networks, be they communications platforms, databases, or (now) academia, and what it will take to push humanity back to doing their own critical thinking. Zachary Foster and Emma then jump right into Trump's recent declaration of intent to ethnically cleanse Gaza under U.S. control while sitting beside Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, touching on the stunning revelation of the White House's seeming internal numbers on the total Gazan death count (around 500k) as well as the ongoing struggle to survive outside of conflict in Gaza. Next, Foster dives into the extensive role Saudi Arabia plays in pushing back against the US-Israeli imperial advancements, with their outward insistence on Palestinian statehood somewhat conflicted by Crown Prince MBS' extensive efforts to normalize relations with Israel as well as to launch Saudi Arabia into an era of “techno-utopianism,” two agendas perfectly-aligned with the Trump Administration, before touching on the stunning international solidarity being shown on behalf of Palestine in the wake of Trump breaking from Biden's tact of *silently* supporting the ethnic cleansing. Wrapping up, Zachary looks to Israel's ongoing military pivot to escalating violence in the West Bank, and why U.S. and international pressure has been the only thing that ever restrained the Zionist state's repeated attempts to ethnically cleanse Palestine. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they highlight a killer dissection of the Big Tech Oligarchy's dream for “Network State” by Joanna of Blonde Politics and dive deep into Big Tech's aggrievement- and power-driven evolution in the public eye. They also watch the NYT help Steve Bannon grapple with Trump allowing a foreign billionaire to take over the US, and Trump and Netanyahu gleefully announce the “official” plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza, plus, your calls and IMs!

I ​think ​what ​depression ​is, ​in ​part ​is ​grief ​for ​your ​own ​needs ​not ​being ​met. - Johann Hari   Hari invites us to reconsider what it truly means to find ourselves, not as isolated beings, but as interconnected individuals whose happiness and healing emerge from shared experiences and mutual support.   This week's timeless is from our archives, part of a beautiful and powerful conversation we had in episode 47 – Johann Hari on Depression, Addiction and Connection entitled Lost Connections: Finding Others Instead of Ourselves.

Today's book is: The Last Human Job: The Work of Connecting in a Disconnected World (Princeton University Press, 2024), by Dr. Allison Pugh, which explores the human connections that underlie our work, arguing that what people do for each other is valuable and worth preserving. Drawing on in-depth interviews and observations with people in a broad range of professions—from physicians, teachers, and coaches to chaplains, therapists, caregivers, and hairdressers—Dr. Pugh develops the concept of “connective labor,” a kind of work that relies on empathy, the spontaneity of human contact, and a mutual recognition of each other's humanity. The threats to connective labor are not only those posed by advances in AI or apps; Dr. Pugh demonstrates how profit-driven campaigns imposing industrial logic shrink the time for workers to connect, enforce new priorities of data and metrics, and introduce standardized practices that hinder our ability to truly see each other. She concludes with profiles of organizations where connective labor thrives, offering practical steps for building a social architecture that works. Vividly illustrating how connective labor enriches the lives of individuals and binds our communities together, The Last Human Job is a compelling argument for us to recognize, value, and protect humane work in an increasingly automated and disconnected world. Our guest is: Dr. Allison Pugh, who is Professor of Sociology at Johns Hopkins University, and the 2024-25 Vice President of the American Sociological Association. She writes about how people forge connections and find meaning and dignity at work and at home. She is the author of The Tumbleweed Society: Working and Caring in an Age of Insecurity and Longing and Belonging: Parents, Children, and Consumer Culture. Her writing has appeared in leading publications such as The New Yorker, the New York Times, and the New Republic. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, the producer of the Academic Life podcast.

It's not unusual to see people sitting alone in church services. It's so common that most people think nothing of it. Listen into this transformative story as Rachael Swihart shares, “As a society, we are the most connected we've ever been. We're also the loneliest we've ever been. About a year ago, I had a conversation with a woman who'd been coming to our church for a while. She told me that it's hard for her to get herself to come because she's divorced and comes alone. She never knew if she'd have someone to sit with. At the time, I sympathized with her but didn't pursue a plan to help … she started coming less and less until she stopped coming all together.”This all too common story was the catalyst to change in Rachael's church. In this episode, Rachael shares simple steps we all can do to lead to change, strengthen our communities, and love more like Jesus.Join our free Facebook Community: www.facebook.com/groups/smallchurchministryRate, Review, & Follow Laurie on Apple Podcasts"I love Laurie and The Small Church Ministry Podcast!!"

Nell O'Leary, the institute communities manager at Word On Fire, left her job as a lawyer to focus on raising her children and found herself feeling disconnected from community. As she intentionally tried to build new connections through blogging, she realized that many women like herself were longing for deeper ties and belonging, and now she offers her insight into how we can build more authentic relationships both on and offline.   Quotes “I had this interim period of just being kind of hidden and home and longing still for words in my life—for that engagement with the world that only language can do.” - Nell O'Leary  “For community to be deeply entrenched in our hearts, it has to be other women who are leading us and helping us grow in our relationship with God.” - Nell O'Leary “If we're growing in relationship with each other—meaning we're able to be authentic—we're not worried about them judging us, we're not worried about not measuring up. Instead, we are really, truly ourselves. We're able to share our sorrows and our joys.” - Nell O'Leary “Hopefully, those we're surrounding [ourselves] with and allowing only certain people to influence us, is helping us actually be more intimate with Jesus.” - Nell O'Leary “At the end of the day, we really do want that community—whatever it is, whatever form it is—to be authentic and to be leading us back to God.

Change happens, is the only constant, and is ever-evolving with or without our conscious awareness. Amidst life's kaleidoscope of change is a higher vibration path of synchronicity, purpose, harmony, and flow.We reach this higher vibrational space when we interal-eyes knowledge that is our defense against mind control and consciously choose to think free. It's the way humanity used to live. Life's changes become choices on how we perceive, participate, and positively affect outcomes when we re-align with our nature.Awake and aware, many have embraced the harsh reality that there are those among us who seek to manipulate our life's experience through imposed traumatic changes. Trauma is the basis of mind control. Fear, negativity, division, grief, and hatred are being deliberately used to keep us in a lower vibration  and out of flow with life's higher purpose. My daughter Kelly and I were exposed to this dark plan while deep in the Wash DC swamp among global perpeTraitors under their MK Ultra mind control.Knowledge is our defense against mind control, which is an evolutionary truth that makes us free. Armed with truth, we are free to remember that we have all the power while this dark energy force cabal only has as much power as we give them or let them steal.The infinite power of love and strength of the human spirit is where we win- and they lose. They cannot possess nor suppress our innate, inherent energy source. The most they can do is distract our conscious mind through imposed trauma in an effort to make us forget who we are and why we are here.Those of us who are on to that ploy are refusing to participate in their dark plan.  With eyes to see, ears to hear, and soul to know reality, it is almost comical watching these self-appointed self-anointed leaders frantically try to maintain their illusions while under an increasingly brilliant spotlight of truth.  Once we see through illusions to understand the magic trick, the spell is broken.Kelly and I have waited a lifetime for this evolutionary moment to arrive when awareness has reached critical mass. Together we share deep insight and understanding of what in the world is going on these ‘daze' while people slowly wake up to the dawn of a bright new day.Despite knowing deep in our souls that victory is and always was inevitable, our family motto “It's Not Over Til We Win” has helped us navigate our intense journey and continues to do so to date. Keeping our vibration high in order to see a clear path forward above the storm does not preclude the fact that we also see many still succumb to current imposed traumas. All that is needed is one light of truth for them to rise above the drama and join the global great awakening.Wisely knowing we can only help those who are willing to help themselves, Kelly chose to stay out of the public eye and turbulent current until humanity chose to join that higher path that comes with awareness. Clearly collective consciousness is rising- as is Kelly's voice and presence.

Drawing on in-depth interviews and observations with people in a broad range of professions--from physicians, teachers, and coaches to chaplains, therapists, caregivers, and hairdressers--Allison Pugh develops the concept of "connective labor," a kind of work that relies on empathy, the spontaneity of human contact, and a mutual recognition of each other's humanity. The threats to connective labor are not only those posed by advances in AI or apps; Pugh demonstrates how profit-driven campaigns imposing industrial logic shrink the time for workers to connect, enforce new priorities of data and metrics, and introduce standardized practices that hinder our ability to truly see each other. She concludes with profiles of organizations where connective labor thrives, offering practical steps for building a social architecture that works. Vividly illustrating how connective labor enriches the lives of individuals and binds our communities together, The Last Human Job is a compelling argument for us to recognize, value, and protect humane work in an increasingly automated and disconnected world.

CW: Adult Language It's a reconnection revolution as Rachel and Tracy welcome psychologist, speaker, and author Dr. Jody Carrington to the podcast for a dynamic conversation about counteracting humanity's loneliness epidemic with empathy, emotional regulation, and Ram Dass' simple, but powerful observation, “we are all just walking each other home.” Tracy and Jody examine specific ways to help various communities, from teachers and healthcare responders to law enforcement officers and children, lay down their trauma and work through it in healthy ways - and why it's essential to seek context and exchange asking, “What is wrong with you?” for “What happened to you?”. Jody and Rachel grapple with the significance of having constant access to loved ones through technology and social media, as Jody explains why it's vital to stop trying to fix our loved ones' problems, instead simply acknowledging the broad spectrum of necessary human emotion, from sadness and anxiety to anger and fear - not just happiness. Everyone considers the mystique of the true crime podcast, citizen journalism, and the international phenomenon that is Taylor Swift.

Have you ever found yourself scrolling through your feed, feeling more disconnected from the world around you with every passing second? This week, I sat down with the insightful Julio Vincent Gambuto, author of Please Unsubscribe, Thanks! and the mind behind the essay that took the internet by storm, Prepare for the Ultimate Gaslighting. Through the intimate recounting of his own story, from modest upbringing to the halls of Harvard, Julio helps us navigate the complex web of cultural and economic disparities that shape our lives. Alongside insights from author, Ali Wenzke, we traverse the rocky terrain of life's challenges and the critical role of social ties in overcoming them.As the conversation unfolds, we confront the pervasive shadow that is loneliness, an affliction magnified by the pandemic and dissected through the eyes of former Surgeon General Dr. Vivek H. Murthy. The stark realities of our individualistic society come to light, revealing how our relentless pursuit of success might actually be leading us away from genuine human connection. This episode isn't just about examining the societal constructs that breed isolation; it's a call to action for each of us to rekindle the bonds that make us human, across all ages and walks of life.Finally, as we reflect on the recent global pause, we're prompted to question the fast-paced automation of our lives and the true cost of convenience. We celebrate the companies like Patagonia that are blazing trails toward a more balanced approach, where employee well-being is more than a hollow perk—it's the cornerstone of a sustainable future. Join me for a profound look at how we can emerge from these challenging times not just unscathed, but enriched, with a renewed appreciation for what it means to be part of a community.Julio Vincent GambutoPlease Unsubscribe, Thanks!, Julio Vincent GambutoHow to Stay Married: The Most Insane Love Story Ever Told, Harrison Scott Key The Art of Happy Moving, Ali Wenzke Support the showThe Bookshop PodcastMandy Jackson-BeverlySocial Media Links
