Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down Donald Trump's latest late-night spiral as a barrage of erratic posts, attacks on Pope Leo XIV, NATO, and political enemies raises new questions about his stability. They analyze the escalating rhetoric, the role of figures like J. D. Vance as he distances himself from the Pope while promoting the administration's agenda, and what it signals about the state of Trump's inner circle. Kander and Gupta also dive into rising global tensions with Iran, stalled negotiations, economic anxiety at home, and alarming new data on inflation and consumer sentiment. Plus, they are joined by Ken Harbaugh to explore what recent international political shakeups can teach the U.S. about countering authoritarian movements and the growing backlash to AI data centers across the country.

Two Hot Takes host, Morgan, is joined by guest co-host Michaela! When people just really make you mad or frustrated, "step on a rake" is way nicer than a lot of the other obscenities we can say! We needed multiple rakes for these ones - from an OP whose BF looked at an old video of her disgustingly, to a workplace app gone wrong, to a young woman whose getting improper education on her body, to a handywoman doing some petty revenge these are all bringing the heat.

Hey everyone... so, in case you haven't heard... this show, Future Around & Find Out, has been nominated for a Webby for best tech podcast! *** VOTE HERE: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2026/podcasts/shows/technology ***I was kind of being chill about this. I am, admittedly, not my own best hype man, but then I got riled up when I heard the hosts of The Vergecast, one of the other nominees and last year's winner, complain that they weren't winning by enough votes and that they wanted to win by such a large margin that it -- quote -- hurts everyone's feelings. Well, those are my feelings Nilay Patel was talking about! Look, I like the Verge -- and I definitely didn't have them on my list of people I might feud with this years -- but f* those guys! Let's win this thing!So could you please vote? Today, April 16th is the last day to do so and we're currently just behind, in second place. The link to vote is in the show notes. You can also find it on the show's website at Future Around dot comAnd what is it you're voting for? Well, if you've been listening then you already know what this show is all about, but I also thought for newbies and even for long time listeners, it might be fun for you to hear exactly what the Webby judges listened to when they voted for FAFO to be a best tech podcast nominee. They ask for ten minutes of audio, so I made a highlight reel — and here it is.*** VOTE HERE: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2026/podcasts/shows/technology ***
Blayne Alexander sits down with Andrea Canning to discuss her latest episode, “The Gorge,” about the 2019 disappearance of Alice Ku, a private tutor from California, and her family's desperate search to find her. With the help of Andrew Watters, a civil attorney with investigative experience, Alice's siblings soon learn she had been keeping a secret: she had married a man named Harald Herchen. Harald claims he last saw his wife while on a trip to Taiwan, when he dropped her off at a train station. The family doesn't believe him, and after retracing Alice's steps, they become convinced Harald killed her in Taiwan's Taroko National Park. Harald denies any wrongdoing, but after the family files a wrongful death lawsuit, a civil jury finds him liable for Alice's death. Andrea shares a podcast-exclusive clip with attorney Watters. She also tells Blayne about getting caught in an earthquake in Taiwan, as well as the challenges of filming in the mountains of Taroko National Park, which included fleeing an aggressively hungry group of monkeys that tried to steal the team's lunch. Plus, they answer your questions from social media. Help Dateline's “Missing in America” win a Webby award!

During the height of the cryptocurrency craze a few years ago, the actor Ben McKenzie found himself wondering why no one else was seeing what he was seeing. He joins the show to explain his yearslong attempt to understand Bitcoin and the crypto world, all of which is in his new documentary Everyone Is Lying to You For Money. (You can probably guess how he feels.) After that, The Verge's Victoria Song tells us about her testing of continuous glucose monitors, which have gone from medical device to influencer trend in some worrying ways. Finally, we answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com!) about why all our gadgets seem the same these days. Vote for The Vergecast in the Webby Awards! A vote for The Vergecast is a vote that Brendan Carr is a dummy, that buttons are good, and that party speakers rule the world.

We live in a world where every crisis lands in your pocket the moment it happens. The result? We're more informed than ever — and somehow less capable of doing anything about it.Inventor and investor Pablos Holman has a diagnosis: we're spreading ourselves across every problem, which means we're solving none of them. His prescription is uncomfortable — pick one thing, go all in, and cut the noise.***QUICK PLUG: Future Around & Find Out is nominated for a Webby for best tech podcast! Voting is open now for the People's Choice Award. Please vote before April 16th! https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2026/podcasts/shows/technology***Pablos is the co-founder of Deep Futures, where he hunts for inventors tackling world-scale problems: energy, water, food, waste, transportation. Not apps. Atoms. And thanks to advances in AI and software, these "impossible" problems are more solvable than ever — if the right people show up to back them.In this conversation, recorded at the fabulous PopTech conference, he makes the case that inventors are the most important creative class on earth — and the most invisible. They're undersupported, uncelebrated, and working alone in garages. Some of them are probably going to blow themselves up. Those are exactly the people he's looking for.We get into:Why doomscrolling is literally eroding your ability to make a differenceThe difference between craft (optimization) and creation (zero-to-one) — and why AI is great at one and struggling with the otherWhy you can name 100 musicians but fewer than two living inventorsHow solving energy unlocks clean water, sanitation, and climate — essentially for freeWhy software people are uniquely positioned to work on the hardest problems in the world right nowChapters:(01:15) - Why the world isn't as broken as your newsfeed makes it seem (03:00) - The sticky note exercise: how to pick the one problem worth your time (04:30) - Inventors are the most important creative class nobody talks about (07:00) - Living inventors you should actually know (09:00) - What AI is good at — and what it still can't do (12:30) - Why software people are the right ones to tackle deep tech problems (22:56) - Energy is the root problem — solve it and you solve a lot else (25:56) - Climate change needs a thousand solutions, not one big fix (28:26) - The fashion industry's dirty secret and what robots can do about it Links & ResourcesPablos Holman on LinkedInDeep Future: VC firm, book, and podcastSupport Future Around & Find OutFAFO is nominated for a Webby for best tech podcast!

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the fallout from Trump's two-week ceasefire announcement with Iran as confusion grows over who actually controls the Strait of Hormuz and what the U.S. achieved. They analyze conflicting reports and reactions from officials and observers, including questions about Iran's military losses versus its new leverage in global shipping, and Trump's own shifting rhetoric on the conflict. Kander and Gupta also dive into the escalating backlash from within Trump's own base, as figures across the political spectrum sound the alarm over his threats, strategy, and handling of the war. Plus, they discuss the latest political developments at home, from Georgia's shifting electorate and JD Vance's international campaigning to controversies in media and a major DOJ shakeup.

Ten years ago, Marie Claire released a series of stories investigating the relationship between women and guns.

Today on the podcast, Marie Claire Executive Editor Andrea Stanley and Deputy Editor Noor Ibrahim join Nikki to discuss the 2026 version of "Women and Guns: A Marie Claire Investigation." They dive into why they chose to write each story in this package, their research and journalistic process, and the impact the pieces had on them. This episode deals with sensitive topics including gun violence, so please listen with care.

Blayne Alexander sits down with Andrea Canning to discuss her latest episode, "Temptation." In 2023, IRS agent Brendan Banfield told police he'd walked into the bedroom of his Virginia home to find a stranger brutally stabbing his wife, Christine. He said he'd shot the man to try and save Christine but it was too late. She died from her injuries. Investigators didn't buy Brendan's story and discovered he had been having an affair with the family au pair. They determined the double homicide was the result of a diabolical catfishing scheme to lure a stranger named Joe Ryan to the Banfields' home and frame him for Christine's murder. Andrea shares an extra clip from the au pair's testimony where she admits to posting romantic photos and videos with Brendan. Blayne discusses her family's positive experience with the au pair program, and Andrea reveals her stint as a live-in nanny for “Baywatch” star David Hasselhoff. Plus, we answer your questions from social media. Help Dateline's “Missing in America” win a Webby award!

Are We ALONE…or Already Being WATCHED? The Truth Might Be Stranger Than Sci-Fi What if aliens could already find Earth, but we still can't find them? What if the reason we haven't detected nonhuman intelligence is actually more disturbing than proof that they exist? Is the universe teaming with life, or are we screaming into a void? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. David Kipping (Columbia University professor and Director of the Cool Worlds Lab) discusses why the ‘proof' of alien life might be hidden in plain sight—and why our human brains struggle to accept it. From the Fermi Paradox to the terrifying reality of the Great Filter, we're breaking down the science of the stars and the psychology of solitude. From controversial Mars discoveries to theories about communicating with aliens through time, not space, this episode will challenge everything you think you know about our place in the universe. ARE WE ON THE VERGE OF PROVING ALIEN LIFE? - Latest on possible biosignatures & microbial evidence on Mars - Why we still don't have definitive proof of life beyond Earth - Emotional “heartbreak” scientists experience when alien signals turn out to be false alarms WHY EARTH MIGHT NOT MATTER AS MUCH AS WE THINK - Could humans be the most primitive intelligence in the universe? - Why we're likely either far ahead, or dangerously behind alien civilizations - How proving the multiverse could completely erase our sense of uniqueness THE UNSETTLING TRUTH ABOUT ALIENS FINDING US - Why it would actually be easy for aliens to locate Earth - Eerie idea that not finding aliens might make you believe in God - Why aliens might be interested in something as specific as…our DNA WE'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT ALIENS ALL WRONG - Why it's “intellectually lazy” to assume aliens explain unknown phenomena - Nonhuman intelligence might be so different, they may not even recognize us as conscious - Are aliens just a reflection of our own hopes, fears, and imagination? TALKING TO ALIENS THROUGH TIME - Why communication across time could be easier than across space - Paradox of UAP sightings: visible one moment, undetectable the next - What kind of scientific evidence would actually prove alien encounters HOW LIFE REALLY BEGAN (AND WHY IT TOOK SO LONG) - Biggest mysteries behind the origin of life on Earth - How understanding our beginnings could help us discover life elsewhere - Why Earth could become uninhabitable in under 1 billion years BLACK HOLES, WORMHOLES, & BREAKING REALITY - What actually happens when something falls into a black hole - Black hole information paradox & why it could unlock the universe - Lab-created “mini” black holes - Wormholes, negative energy, & what might exist on the other side - How the Holographic Principle is shaking the foundations of physics AI, BABY UNIVERSES & THE FUTURE OF SCIENCE - How AI is accelerating discovery, but also creating new risks - Why the public is starting to feel misled by science - What baby universes mean for reality FROM OUR GALAXY TO THE EDGE OF EVERYTHING - How recent tech advancements have transformed our understanding of the cosmos - Why exoplanets could have been discovered much earlier - What makes Earth scientifically special…and why it might not be that special at all If you're curious about aliens, the origin of life, black holes, or the ultimate fate of humanity, this is a conversation you don't want to miss!

Cookie banners — those pop-ups that appear on practically every webpage demanding you accept their tracking systems — are one of the most consistent low-grade annoyances of life online. But Kate Klonick, a professor and writer, argues they're actually much worse than that, and the only plausible solution is to get rid of them entirely. After that, The Verge's Allison Johnson tells us about her AI-enhanced Google Maps experience, and why the new Ask Maps feature has the potential to be both incredibly cool and incredibly creepy. Then, she helps David answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com!) about whether E Ink phones might solve all our problems.

Very fun news… The Webby Awards have just nominated Future Around & Find Out as a nominee for Best Technology Podcast!!!And you can help make it a Popular Choice winner. Winning would be great for the growth of show. Thank you!Please vote for FAFO! ---OK, on to today's episode… it's another good vibes rooftop episode recorded at SXSW. For the second year in a row I'm joined by Rob Kenedi, a fellow podcaster, who is the founder and host of Decelerator. Last year he, very memorably, said we were in the “fart app era of AI”. Meaning: people are trying stuff (a la the make-a-fart-sound apps that people built in the early days of the iPhone). So, we revisit that comment and ask where are we now? And what's defensible for app makers — and for creators like us?Podcaster that he is, Rob turns the tables on me and asks me a bunch of questions about how I'm approaching this question and I shared what was top of mind when I rebranded the show recently from CRAFTED. to Future Around & Find Out. Namely, I wanted to give the show more personality, but that is how you stand out right now and that's what going to be defensible in the age of AI. And the Webby nomination — you already voted, right?? — only makes me feel more confident in the rebrand and the addition of more of these casual “FAFO Friday” episodes that feature a lot more of my (and regular guest Kwaku Aning's) personality. (You'll hear more about how AI is changing the creator economy and why “being human” is so important in a few days when my episode with Jim Louderback, writer of Inside the Creator Economy, comes out; he gives a great annual talk at SXSW and I had seen it the day before recording with Rob.)In the meantime, come join Rob and me for some good vibes from Austin… And (ask your friends to) vote: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2026/podcasts/shows/technology

Ravi Gupta breaks down Trump's latest moves on Iran, including his claim the U.S. could leave in “2–3 weeks” and declare a “new regime,” even as Iran signals it doesn't see the U.S. as serious about diplomacy. He analyzes the growing economic fallout across the Middle East, from attacks on infrastructure and trade hubs to escalating threats in the Strait of Hormuz, and what a widening conflict could mean for global markets and U.S. allies. Ravi also dives into the intensifying infighting within MAGA world, as prominent voices turn on Trump's handling of the situation and raise new questions about leadership and direction. Plus, he discusses new polling data showing shifting party identification, Trump's historically low approval numbers, and what it all signals heading into the next election cycle.

Big news! We've just been nominated for a Webby Award for Best News & Politics Podcast! Now it's time to bring it home—and we need your help. Cast your vote HERE: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2026/podcasts/shows/news-politics The Iran war keeps escalating, and the messaging from Washington couldn't be more split. President Trump claims “real progress” is being made toward a deal, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth insists the U.S. is “closer than ever to winning”— even as Iran maintains the ability to strike back. Gas prices are climbing, supply chains are tightening, and the Magnificent 7 tech giants are taking a hit. Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov break down the chaos: Is Trump steering the country toward peace — or pushing the U.S. further into disaster? How high could energy prices go if the conflict drags on? And, at what point do the costs of war start outweighing the public's patience? Scott and Jessica also explore the economic fallout, the political pressure mounting at home, and what the future could hold if Trump's Iran strategy collapses. And finally, Scott congratulates Jessica on her recent significant achievement: living rent-free in the president's head.
