Episode 114: Fearless forecasts—does improbable mean impossible?


Listen Later

Some industry predictions may seem outlandish—or even impossible. But does that mean
they’re not worth considering? Kick off 2026 with Kevin and Macan, as they explore consensus-
defying predictions that may sound absurd, but warrant closer examination. Listen in as they
examine the logic behind some of industry's boldest predictions, challenging listeners to rethink

Tune in for a lively start to 2026—and decide for yourself: are these forecasts improbable, or
impossible?
