  • #50 Zachary Marlow - Moneyless Society

    Zachary Marlow is a maverick film maker, regen, and co-founder of Moneyless Society. He is vagabonding around the world to tell a story of a more beautiful world beyond the pale of our extractive economic system.


    Key Takeaways from this Podcast



    • Money and capitalism can be seen as a religious ideology worshiping the god of Moloch and leading to the coordination failure of humanity.

    • The narrative of progress should be critically examined and reevaluated. The transition from a pre-tragic to a post-tragic mindset involves awakening to the tragic realities of the world and embracing the pain and challenges that come with it.

    • Money is a symptom of an underlying paradigm that values self-interest and separation, and a new story is needed to shift towards a more regenerative and interconnected worldview.

    • Love is a powerful force that can save us from the abyss and inspire us to take action to protect and restore the planet.

    • Savoring life and fully embracing the present moment is essential in the face of the world's challenges, and throwing ourselves into the crisis can lead to transformative experiences and actions.
