When Douglas Rushkoff was invited to speak at an exclusive retreat, he prepared for questions like 'Bitcoin or Ethereum?'. What he wasn't expecting to be asked was "How do I maintain authority over my security force after 'the event'?"

War, disease, climate change, societal collapse, whatever it was that would signal the end of society, these men wanted his opinions on the best ways to survive and thrive in the aftermath.

And that got him thinking about why some of the most privileged men in the world were expecting everything to come crashing down.

In the Drawing Room, Douglas chats about the problems with eternal growth, finding what really matters, and his latest book Survival of the Richest.
