It is difficult to even know what happened in the past, leave alone predicting the future. But one day, when our brave hosts were asked what the world will look like in 2050, they decided to have some fun.

Welcome to Episode 106 of Everything is Everything, a weekly podcast hosted by Amit Varma and Ajay Shah.

In this episode, Amit and Ajay make 15 predictions about 2050 in full humility, likely to be wrong, but hey, that will give us a mea culpa episode in 2050! Too much fun, this episode is, as they talk about trends and specifics. Watch!
