Bossed in Space feat. Laurie Laybourn-Langton
Release Date: 05/22/2019
Description: It seems like we have limited choices for the future of humanity. On one hand, we could stop the endless, destructive growth cycle that will ruin our climate, but that might affect shareholders’ portfolios. We could also build hellish capitalism in space, according to Jeff Bezos. This week, Riley, Milo, Alice, and Olga met with IPPR Associate Fellow Laurie Laybourn-Langton to discuss our options. Turns out, capital doesn’t want us to choose the good one! If you like this show, sign up to the Patreon and get a second free episode each week!
