Episode #225: Greg Epstein

In Episode #225, humanist and Tech Agnostic author Greg Epstein joins Osi to talk about how we can stay thoughtful and ask the right questions in a world that’s being rapidly shaped by technology. They discuss what it means to think for ourselves instead of blindly trusting every new innovation—asking who really benefits from our faith in tech, how we can hold the industry responsible for its impact, and how we can stay connected to what makes us human in the middle of all this change.Greg M. Epstein is the Humanist chaplain at both Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and currently serves as president of the Harvard Chaplains Organization. He is the New York Times bestselling author of Good Without God, a landmark book that helped bring mainstream attention to the idea that secular individuals can lead lives of deep purpose, compassion, and community. His latest work, Tech Agnostic, builds on that foundation—exploring the intersection of technology, ethics, and humanism in an increasingly digital world. Greg’s writing on humanism, technology, politics, and ethics has appeared in The Boston Globe, CNN.com, The Washington Post, Newsweek, Salon, Critical Inquiry, and The Humanist.
