What happens when the world stops needing you to work?
That's not a hypothetical. It's happening right now.
Obsolete: The Last Job is a near-future novel following three generations of the Sowinski family as AI dismantles the economy they built their lives around. Shawn lost his job to an algorithm. His son Mack is eighteen with nowhere to go. His father Jack is seventy and invisible.
But instead of giving up, they build something new.
A community platform. A movement. A new way of measuring human worth — not by productivity, but by purpose.
This podcast explores the ideas behind the book: the Intelligence Inversion, the Zero Marginal Cost Society, the psychology of Flow, and what it actually looks like when people stop chasing paychecks and start building meaning.
If you've ever felt replaced, left behind, or told you don't matter — this is for you.
