E372. Andrew Yang Tried To Warn Us

Andrew Yang returns to the podcast for a conversation about the chaos of modern life, his no-phone parties aimed at reviving real human hookups in a world that’s stopped partying, and his new phone service that literally pays you to doomscroll less. They discuss future of the Forward Party, how getting a few seats in Congress could change everything, how the terrifying speed of AI quietly erasing jobs will inevitably lead to some sort of universal basic income, why an extreme winner-take-all economy will only make things more dystopian, how he tries to stay positive in the face of so much uncertainty, and why this era might be a great time to become a cult leader. Get 3 months of free wireless by going to https://noblemobile.com/yang ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsor Links: - Quest offers 100+ lab tests to empower you to have more control over your health journey.
