Podcasts about Future Now

A new framework for considering the needs of the “more-than-human world” when designing human-made systems is “ecological empathy,” the focus of Lauren Lambert, founder of Future Now, a sustainability consulting firm. Her research, Ecological empathy: Relational theory and practice, was published in the journal Ecosystems and People in late 2024, when she was at Arizona State University. She joins the podcast to detail the concept and its potential for reconnecting humans with nature for mutual benefit. "Ecological empathy as I define it [is] essentially a framework of practice for how to use empathy as a guide to connect to the more-than-human world, and integrate our interdependence and relationships with the more-than-human world in everyday thinking, everyday practice, and specifically in the places where we work," she says. Previous newscast guests like Carl Safina, argued for overhauling how humans raise and farm seafood. Ben Goldfarb discussed how road crossings can help humans move toward a less environmentally damaging road infrastructure network in his award-winning book Crossings, which documents what he calls “road ecology.” Subscribe to or follow the Mongabay Newscast wherever you listen to podcasts, from Apple to Spotify, and you can also listen to all episodes here on the Mongabay website.

Listen to 96 Future Now We are podcasting today from the Beachhouse in Aptos, where the waves are almost licking our street.  Undeterred, we proceed, knowing that the waves, at least in our biogregion, will behave, and leave us high and dry. for the forseeable future.   We think you’ll enjoy our reparte with “Larry and Mary,” the talk show host AI’s from Google’s Deep Mind, currently available for work and play at www.notebooklm.com.  We really wanted to see if they could help us explore more deeply the LA Fires weirdness factor, which we consider to be pretty high. They did pretty well, overall, pointing out the strangeness of fake firemen looting neighborhoods, but we wanted to know if they knew anything about the labyrinthian tunnels under LA, revealed by the fires.   We had a human visitor today as well, our buddy Hallelujah Blessing, who helped us check out the cosmic cred of Larry and Mary, with mixed but hilarious results. And for good measure, we explored more of our favorite tech announced last week at the annual Consumer Electronics Show.  Enjoy!   Larry and Mary AI talk show hosts

Listen to 95 Future Now podcast Transcript Well, this year is off to a roaring start with two Turo-rented electric vehicles leading the charge in both the New Orleans and Las Vegas terror events.  Can you imagine pimping out your brand new Tesla Cybertruck to Turo for rental and being told that your vehicle was blown up by a Green Beret gone mad? And now the wild fires of Los Angeles.. Rather than dwell on such profound issues, we choose instead to focus on topics like what is hot at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show, which also happens to be in Las Vegas. We take a look at some innovations for the home, including robot vacuums with claw for cleaning and picking up out of place matter, (i.e. socks and underwear), fridges and microwaves with big screens, smarter glasses, and yes, self-flying balls! And did I mention the CES-announced nVidia super computer on a chip for $250? Brains for our robots! We also look at how robotaxis will be getting more of a foothold in cities across America this year, from San Francisco to LA, Dallas, Austin, and Atlanta.  Uber and Lyft are in the picture, working with the car manufacturers to provide ride services.  Adoption looks to be swift, with Waymo passengers in California skyrocketing from 20K rides in 2023 to 500K rides in 2024! And we wrap it all up in a cyber bow with our thoughts about how democracy could evolve with a little help from our silicon-based friendz..Enjoy! CES Smart Kitchen

We also have our AI hosts, “Larry and Mary,” discuss evidence of reverse biological aging, something they seem fascinated by, despite their non-biological origins. Our caller suggests that Larry may be based on the voice of Leo Laporte, a popular tech talk show host in the Bay Area. We are investigating.. Other stories this week indicate that humanoid robots, formerly known as androids, are on the rise, especially in health care, bat blood may be useful in creating human hiberation, Gamma rays may help our farmers, Alzheimers may be an autoimmune issue, and a select few Orca whales in the Northwest have adopted an arcane sense of fashion!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Aaron Kleinman, director of research for the States Project at Future Now, to discuss the biggest state legislature races coming up in November. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Israel's mass slaughter in Lebanon, US troop presence in the Middle East, Harris' lead in Michigan and Wisconsin, Nebraska's sole electoral vote, GOP controversy, Missouri's death penalty, VISA's potential anti-trust violation, Exxon's lies, UNWRA funding, and climate change, before watching Trump muse on his divine feminism, and diving a little deeper into Israel's reign of terror on Lebanon. Aaron Kleinman then joins, jumping right into exactly *what* makes this upcoming election such a close fight well beyond the Presidency, looking at electoral shifts left in Midwest Blue Wall states and what Washington's upcoming top-two primary might be able to tell us about these states come November, and tackling whether the Sunbelt's curious rightward shift in 2022 will see a reversal, particularly with the role of abortion on the ballot. After expanding on the States Project's project, how they assess the needs of different candidates and races, and unpacking the major funding gaps in funding for Democratic candidates on the federal and state levels, Kleinman highlights Wisconsin's myriad tight races in the wake of redistricting and wraps up by touching on the potential Mark Robinson effect in North Carolina. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive deep into the complete failure of basic journalistic responsibilities that has been the ongoing controversy around Rep. Rashida Tlaib's criticism of the Michigan AG's prosecution of pro-Palestinian protesters, walking through each step of the distortion of Tlaib's genuine critiques by AG Nessel and CNN's Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, and the network's ultimate doubling-down on the story. After parsing through Missouri's pending execution of Marcellus Williams, the MR Team watches Eric Weinstein unpack the Marxism behind some of Kamala Harris' most famous musings, dissect some polling and election previews with John from San Antonio, and discuss the inhumanity of the anti-Haitian hate coming out of the GOP with William in Indiana. Jacob from Indiana helps the show tackle the continuing conflation of anti-semitism and anti-Zionism, and Megyn Kelly watches Dave Rubin stroke his ego as they explore why his getting tied up in dark Russian money was actually a DOJ conspiracy to punish conservative media, plus, your calls and IMs!

Listen Now to 78 Future Now This week we hear from my dear wife and co-partner of this podcast, Sun (aka Mrs. Future) from Portugal, where she is traveling with her sister on a family adventure.  Taylor Barcroft then brings us up-to-date on all the latest and greatest offerings from Apple Computer, particularly the iPhone 16 models and the Series 10 Watch. (hint - if you are into photography, the Pro and Pro Max are your best options).   If you are curious about the feeding frenzy in the Montery Bay lately, it’s the large anchovy schools of fish feeding the other critters, from dolphins and whales to birds, otters, and sea lions. Sounds good for the creatures, but there is this little thing (that has happened before) called an anchovy die-off that has ecological consequences.. A feeding frenzy in Seabird and marine mammal feeding frenzy in Monterey Bay MIT educated Bruce McHenry checks in, not so much for discussing his speciality, transportation, but to inform us of the Fediverse and their latest forum on breaking walled gardens open and connecting them into a free, open and decentralized social network. This could change the way you relate (or likely not relate) to social media. Meet the people that want to do this..Enjoy!

Listen to 70 Future Now Transcript of 70 Future Now It’s Summertime and living is fun, unless you are on a deep space mission.  Turns out our kidneys are particularly sensitive to radiation in space, failing after only two years..oh no, what now? Any solutions? We think so! Harvard Cryptoterrestrial GradAnd finally, top academics are suggesting to their brethren that now is the time to consider more expanded concepts of the alien presence.  Ideas like advanced reptilians living underground, staying invisible to the likes of us, transdimensional beings moving through space and time in unusual ways,  ships that enter the earth through volcanoes, the ‘other’ intermingling and living with us for generations, doing who knows what to our minds. Science Fiction or Fact? At least such ideas are now being considered more seriously, or at least sincerely.  Time sensitive this week is a sacred whale cruise in the Monterey Bay, hosted by Michele Newman, a psychic, healer, shamanness, and player of the crystal bowls.  Mrs. Future (Sun) beautifully interviews Michele about this upcoming cruise (Saturday June 22), and if you feel it’s time to connect with Whales in this way, here’s an “Opportunity Knocks” card! :-) Our big AI story this week is about applying the rigorous scientific methods used by SETI (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (to investatigating and evaluating) the growing intelligence of the AIs. Not a perfect match, but lots of cross pollenation here! And we end with callers, including “Master Now” who answers the question of the hour, “Which came first in the timeline, Love or Fun?”   Enjoy!!

Listen to Future Now #61 I couldn’t believe it when I read about a geoengineering project changing the reflectivity of clouds in our home, the SF Bay Area, in Scientific American, a mainstream science publication! Maybe there is something to all the airplane trails we see these days that will be discussed to major forums. No such luck in looking at the bigger picture of chemtrails, but there is some light on the topic that is now being discussed in the open.  In our fiest hour we also look at Udio, an audio AI program that allows you to create songs on any topic instantly, Tesla Taxi plans, extra stellar sonification, a strange gamma ray burster, and a dead star that has mysteriously come to life!   The second hour is a delightful conversation with Dave Welch, aka ‘Nordic Dave’ at Santa Cruz Voice on his and Amy’s trip to see the total eclipse of the sun last week via his Cessna 182 aircraft. Dave shares with us what it is like to fly private these days, with over 3500 small airports in the US available, many with services, and close to where you want to go.  We ask about the weather, wifi, autopilot, noise, radar, maps, other planes. Dave compares flying private today to taking cross country road trips in the 1960’s and 70’s…very enjoyable!  Later in the show, Dave delves into his passion for incredible audio, building his own amps and speakers for the best sound experiences possible. We greatly enjoyed our time with him, as you will, I’m sure. Enjoy! Nordic Dave and his Cessna 182 and the 2024 Eclipse

Listen to 57 Future Now - We are on a roadtrip to Seattle and doing our podcast from AirB&B’s for the next couple of shows. This week is on the road in Ashlandfrom Ashland, a cultural hotspot known for great art galleries, theaters, restaurants, and the home of the world famous Oregon Shakespeare Festival.  We saw the opening production of MacBeth, and Dune, part 2.  Much to discuss and explore this week, as the future is happening now at an increasingly exponential rate, from space adventures  to musical  AI, and human behavior insights.  Enjoy!

Listen to 55 Future Now Lots happening in the AI universe this week, including Sun’s quite humorous report with examples of Google’s faux paus in the name of woke culture.  EMO by AliBaba is scary-good at taking any source image plus audio and making the image look like they are saying/singing the audio. This can bring to life any decent picture of a person, ressurecting dead friends and relatives, putting words in anyone’s mouth. EMO is not released yet, but should be out in time for fun shenanigans with the upcoming presidential election..We also discuss the law suit between Elon Musk and OpenAI, a big issue when it comes to the public being aware of what’s actually going on with the rise of AGI, Artifician General Intelligence.  Could that holy grail alread exist in the form of Q*, or perhaps even Sora, OpenAI’s formidable entery in the text to video arena? We discuss.   Some great space news this week, including sonification of several interesting areas of interest in space, and a very cool interactive 3D map of the solar system, including the planets, moons, asteroids, space probes, and many earth satellites, all in real time! In the medical world we are excited to report of a blood test that works for some forms of dementia, such as Altzheimers.  Bobby shares a use of biographical video recording that helped his mother, when she was suffering from dementia, and discusses Methylene Blue, a long time compound that seems to stimulate the brain’s neurons by increasing mitochondrial function.  Enjoy!

Listen to Future Now 2.6.2024 We recorded this show in the aftermath of a large west coast storm, and if you listened in realtime, you would have heard the numerous tech glitches that happened, including dropping off the air multiple times.  But for the podcast version you get to focus on what we found most fascinating this week, not the glitches. In Space News, for example, the PACE mission will dramatically improve our tracking of life and weather over the Earth’s oceans, and led to a conversation on how other creatures of this planet may also benefit from our planetary tech.  If you like glowy things, consider the first commerical glowing house plant, a petunia with a biolumenescent gene from  a South American mushroom!  If that is too silly for you, consider deploying bio-engineered bacteria that eat our waste plastic, a relatively low cost/low impact approach to cleaning up our polymer messes.  We also have fun looking at the new Short TakeOff and Landing aircraft under development, the the exciting new infrared NASA photos of Jupiter’s highly volcanic moon, IO.  Hot spots all over, enjoy!

Listen Now to Future Now 1.9.24 It’s 2024 and time for the annual Consumer Electronics Show, a massive techie spectacle we used to attend every year.  These days, everything there is online and in many ways more accessible to braving the crowds in Las Vegas. New display tech was used to turned the famous Luxor pyramid hotel into a giant Dorito chip!  Is nothing sacred?  As we recorded this week’s show, CES had just opened and we discuss some of our favorite items from this year’s crop of shiny new gadgets.  But before we delve into CES world we look at Stanford/Google’s new robot, the Mobile Aloha, a machine that comes closer than ever to performing common household tasks well, like cooking and cleaning. And almost as amazing is the survival of an iPhone falling 16 thousand feet without a scratch. And even more incredible is a new CAR-T treatment for cancer worth checking out! Enjoy.. The Luxor pyramid is now a giant orange Dorito

Listen to Future Now 12.5.23 Welcome to the holiday season! We have lots of future news this week. Consider Wasabi for better memory, wonder about the super intelligence of Octopi, or the lifeforms found in a vast underwater city, 6 synchronized planets, and cultural hallucinations.  Marvel at the new KISS musical avatars, as the band finishes it’s last tour, ponder more about Q* and it’s significance, find out more about keeping your canine safe from a new disease, and be aware of ancient bloodsucking mosquitoes..

Before CORROSION OF CONFORMITY gifted us with their signature “Southern Fried Sabbath” sound, the metal world was first introduced to BLIND, a unique blending of thrash, doom, and stoner metal tempered with heavy foundations built on straight-up Sabbath worship. Clearly a progression from the punk & hard-core centric sound of earlier COC and their maiden voyage into thrash metal territory, BLIND sounds as if Black Sabbath time traveled and came to power in the early 90's as a modern-day thrash band complete with all the darker, doomier elements that were such an integral part of their signature sound back in the day. Surely, COC's release of BLIND was pivotal in fostering the resurging popularity of Sabbath's legendary, groundbreaking 70's output. Prepare to receive some sage “exercise” advice and understand why glasses aren't always suitable for certain situations.

Listen to 38 Future Now with Alma Robots are a theme this week, with humanoid robots soon to be coming en masse from China, Japan, and the US..Are we ready for this?  And for something completely different, we speak with Alma and friends from their beautiful ranch on native Ohlone lands in the hills of  Morgan Hill, near San Jose and Santa Cruz, CA.  Alma speaks of their ranch as being a place for healing, and of connecting with the Earth, the Universe, and each other, as we face the challenges of our times. They plan on holding events regularly on the full and new moons coming up, and offer sweat lodges, yoga, plant healings, and spearhead discussions for realigning and unifying humanity into a more holistic unity consciousness, essential for creating heaven on earth.  We had a delightful connection with the folks there, which we think you  will enjoy!

On this episode, Nancy welcomes back Melissa Walker of the States Project (formerly known as Future Now). Melissa appeared on the very first episode of this podcast, when deep in Covid lockdown, she schooled us on why we should be focusing on winning state races versus focusing on big, expensive federal seats. On this episode, Melissa is back to talk about why state elections matter now more than ever, how tiny margins can create huge policy and power shifts, and why this year's elections in Virginia are of vital importance. Melissa doesn't sugarcoat the fight that lies ahead, but she will give you the inspiration and information you need to be a fierce and focused warrior. For more information about the States Project and how to join or start a giving circle, check out their website at statesproject.org.

Nancy shares with us the latest in her world of books and consciousnes evolution. Her husband Richard is known by many as ‘the accidental psychic,’ and shares with us a stunning example of what he means by that.  Enjoy Richard and Nancy Marriott in Montpelier, VT

Listen to Future Now with Irene Lambert and Ted Fairhurst We actually had some bandwidth this week, out here in the wilds of Canada, and were able to do this show live. Naturally for the podcast we’ve dramatically improved it in many ways, with sound fx, edits and additions to The Futures with Mothermake the show flow well and be more entertaining.  To help discuss this week’s Future stories, we have Bobby Wilder, our science correspondent in San Francisco, and Irene Lambert in Montreal, who just happens to be Dr. Future’s  Bio-mom! She just turned 93, but doesn’t miss a beat in our high-paced, hi-browTed Fairhurst during our on the road interview conversations. Our disussion on the Maui wildfire, for example, covers insights gained from our collective  personal experiences with California and the big Canada wildfires this year.  Also of interest this week is our interview with Ted Fairhust, an adventurer who has summited the highest peaks and volcanos in every continent in his 60’s and 70’s! He’s written a book on his experiences, “Dare to Reach,” and is one healthy inspired spirit! Enjoy..

Tip of the Hat to Steven Greer and Stable Diffusionreports and interviews of alien encounters and evidence of government coverups.  We, of course, have our own take on all of this and do a live in studio interview with our alternative health correspendant, Bruce Erikson, who is a veteran of several alient encounters.  And, as Greg Panos and Richard Cray are still in town, we speak with them about the latest in AI and Richard sings a new tune for the show, about Steven Greer and alien revelations.

Listen to Future Now 6.06.2023 XR The virtual and augmented worlds got a double boost this week, with the Augmented World Expo in Santa Clara and the revealing of the Apple Vision Pro headset. Apple’s vision of the XR future is markedly different from the leader in that space, Meta, with a focus more on augmented than virtual reality and higher end resolution and graphics, amongst many other things.  To help evaluate the latest and greatest in these worlds, we have in studio, Greg Panos, a pioneer o augmented and virtual reality, Richard Cray, an accomplished vr/ar performance artist, Taylor Barcroft, our Future Now Apple correspondent, and Bobby Wilder our science correspondent.  We think you’ll really appreciate a lttle ditty about Apple’s new headset we created with a little help from Richard’s singing and Greg’s prompting of Perplexity.ai.  Enjoy!

Listen to 18 Future Now 5.30.2023 As May fades into summertime, warm weather returns and we hang more in the great outdoors.  And we are  using our phones more than ever for transactions as we travel, and can be seduced by various fraudsters and their shenanigans. This week we speak with our alternative health correspondant, Bruce Erkson, after a months long ordeal involving Internet phone fraud from Ghana, the new pirate haven for online chicanery. His is a cautionary tale well worth hearing, as you too could be  next, especially as AI is applied to creating more sophisticated means of stealing identities and fleecing the human flock…  We also have some great space news and look at how nVidia is benefiting from the current AI craze. Enjoy! Beware of AI Enhanced Internet Scams!

Sam hosts Aaron Kleinman, director of research for the States Project at Future Now, to discuss the upcoming Wisconsin State Supreme Court election in April. Then they're joined by Peter Shamshiri, or Law Boy on Twitter, co-host of the 5-4 Podcast, to discuss the recent oral arguments before the Supreme Court. First, Sam runs through updates on the DOJ bringing a case against the Memphis PD, Biden's budget (and its record-breaking defense spending), the reaction to Tucker Carlson's white-washing of 1/6, and Twitter vs. the FTC, before diving into Elizabeth Warren's takedown of Jerome Powell as he shunts one half of the Fed's mandate (employment) in favor of the other (inflation). Aaron Kleinman then joins as he and Sam dive right into the Wisconsin Supreme Court race between Trump alumnus Daniel Kelly and “pro-democracy” Janet Protasiewicz, walking through the stakes – from election shenanigans to reproductive rights – before looking to the electoral nature of the state, with one of the country's worst cases of gerrymandering, and wrapping up the interview exploring the Democrats' success in special elections post-Dobbs, and how that could play out in the additional State Senate race. Peter Shamshiri and Sam then take on the status of Biden's Student Loan relief program, summarizing the argument his administration is bringing in front of the Supreme Court, why said argument is so emergency-specific, and why the justices' questions during oral arguments centered around administrative power. Expanding on this, Sam and Peter discuss the battle between the Chevron and Major Question Doctrines, and why the “standing” of the cases being brought against Student Debt relief is on flimsy ground, before wrapping up the interview by summarizing the Supreme Court's recent cases regarding the constitutionality of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the accountability of tech platforms for what their algorithms promote. And in the Fun Half: Another Daily Wire theocrat (Michael Knowles) preaches about why divine right monarchy is better at limiting power than democracy, Republicans try to pin Norfolk Southern's climate disaster on “diversity” while still refusing to bolster regulations, and Bernie Sanders launches his investigation into Howard Schultz's mass exploitation. Kevin McCarthy and Tucker Carlson feel the heat for their Twitter-files-esque release of footage whitewashing January 6th, plus, your IMs!

Sam hosts Ari Berman, writer at Mother Jones, to discuss his the midterm elections and his recent piece "How Wisconsin Became the GOP's Laboratory for Dismantling Democracy". Then, Sam is joined by Aaron Kleinman, director of research for the States Project at Future Now, to discuss how Democrats did in the midterms at the state level across the country. First, Sam runs through updates on the missiles fired into Poland yesterday, Donald Trump officially launching his 2024 candidacy, federal and state judiciary ongoings, and more, before walking through Mitch McConnell's response to Rick Scott challenging his Senate leadership position. Ari Berman then joins, diving right into the severe shift in Wisconsin politics that followed the election of Scott Walker in 2010, as a Koch-backed Republican trifecta launched their case study for attacking democracy on the state level, going after the core of the swing state's progressive base by undermining unions and voting rights, reforming campaign finance laws, and instituting intense gerrymandering. This brings Ari to parsing through the dichotomy that ensued over the next decade, as Wisconsin's demos continued to vote narrowly between the two parties while the GOP majorities in the state houses continued to grow, best seen in the 2018 midterms where Democrats won 54% of votes statewide, yet Republicans still held 64% of seats. Next, they tackle the future of gerrymandering as the Supreme Court tiptoes closer and closer to undermining the involvement of either independent commissions or state courts in the matter, before wrapping up the interview by walking through the role of governors in fighting back against gerrymandered legislatures (it's getting increasingly difficult) and why this will continue to be a major issue until we get a new Supreme Court. Aaron Kleinman and Sam then parse through the various victories by the Democrats at the state level, including flipping both chambers and achieving a trifecta in Michigan, flipping the Senate and retaining the House in Minnesota, and performing incredibly well (with votes still coming in) in Pennsylvania and New Hampshire, also touching on results from Arizona, Colorado, and Maine. After addressing the upcoming Moore v. Harper case and its likely impact on the power of state legislatures, they wrap up the interview by tackling the importance of the 2024 elections and where the States Project's work is likely going next. And in the Fun Half: Sam and the crew dive into Trump officially announcing his 2024 candidacy, Mitch McConnell coming out victorious in the Senate leadership battle, and Ben Shapiro's response to discussions of codifying same-sex marriage. Chris from Brooklyn dives into the Majority Report's role as a vocal piece for activists, Thomas from Raleigh discusses the recent NC elections, and Brennan from Kentucky explores Moore v. Harper. El Conipción talks about Texas police brutality, Nick from LA gives updates from his city's election, and A Square debates whether this really is DeSantis' moment. Plus, your calls and IMs!
