The economy is already changing dramatically because of science and technology. Transhumanism, the field of using radical innovation to improve the human being, is at the root of much of that change. Whether it's artifical intelligence, genetic editing, chip implants, or dozens of other radical innovations, these technologies are changing the way we live and work. Soon, many jobs that were around for centuries will be lost to robots and software. Can capitalism survive? Can it thrive in the future? How will the future transhumanist economy be?

He’s explored over 100 countries—many as a journalist for the National Geographic Channel—writing, filming, and appearing in dozens of television stories, articles, and webcasts.

In a world that is now Requiring everyone to wake up and pay attention to their own truths, what is the first step? How does one reach a state of enlightenment, and what does that even mean?

Ben recently posted a couple short posts asking people about their views around enlightenment, and he has recieved 100s of comments, all with different opinions. If enlightenment is simply freedom, then now is the time to locate it.

Join us with questions.

Today, we will be interviewing one of the most intelligent people I have ever met, about one of the most important topics out there. Our mental and physical health. I'll be honest, this guy is so crazy smart that even I (Ben) had a REALLY hard time following along in this conversation. If you dare to listen, expect to find yourself in a trance like state of pure awe.

Daniel has a trans-disciplinary science background within a whole systems, complexity, and integral framework. He loves solving seemingly intractable problems by reassessing the foundational data and axioms of a field then restructuring it from the ground up.

He began seriously studying health and neurology when afflicted with neurological and autoimmune illnesses that had no known solutions in either allopathic or complementary medicine. The insights that lead to his healing came from developing a new model for understanding physiology and pathology, which he then applied to helping many people address various forms of complex illness and optimize their capabilities beyond their previous healthy baselines.

Daniel was the academic dean for a college of mind-body medicine and has consulted for many cutting edge integrative doctors and medical clinics to help find novel solutions for complex cases. He created and ran a cutting edge think tank developing complex systems solutions for environmental and social issues, and has directed a transdisciplinary group of scholars on a philosophy of mind project addressing core questions of mind/ brain interface and developing an axiomatic reformulation for the epistemology of neuroscience.

He has a significant background with and love for psychedelics, nootropics, meditation, depth psychology, and all effective tools for evolving states and stages of consciousness and evolving the human experience.

The future under president Trump.

The US seems to be losing it's mind  racism is out in the open  how do we recover from this? Will Obama have time to hide the nukes before January??

What does it all mean? What are his policies? Who is he appointing into office with him? What is the bigger picture? How did this even happen??

Ben and Alex both have their own unique points of view. 

Let's have a real conversation. It's an important time to pay attention..

Call in with questions.

On this exciting episode of The Futurists, we will be exploring the possibility that a democracy might not be the best form of government after all. Nor is a repbublic, which is actually what the US is...

What if the people choosing their president and laws was actually the source of all the problems in the US right now?

I know it sounds contrarian, but you might just come away with a different point of view. In the meantime, ask yourself what your dream life government scenario would look like.

Things to consider:

You will feel truly free. 

You will be on life purpose. 

You will feel safe. 

You will feel connected with everyone else. 

You will feel like a huge weight has lifted off your shoulders. 

You will feel proud of your country. 

You will feel a new level of clarity you have never felt before.

That's how you'll know you're looking in the right direction. Always up, never back.
