Host Brian Wesolowski invites one of the most notable tech skeptics (or in his words, realist) of our time onto the podcast. In his latest book, How to Fix the Future, he addresses the ways we can tackle the biggest problems in the digital world, with a goal of saving humanity.\n\nWe cover a lot of ground in our conversation, including the role tech is playing in societal unrest, the potential for regulations on internet companies, and innovative models of civic engagement. [Note there's an upgrade in audio quality at one point during the convo \u2013\xa0we apologize for the technical issues in the beginning.]\n\nMore on the book: http://www.ajkeen.com/\nMore on Andrew: https://twitter.com/ajkeen\nMore on our host, Brian: bit.ly/cdtbrian\n\nAttribution: sounds used from Psykophobia, Taira Komori, BenKoning, Zabuhailo, bloomypetal, guitarguy1985, bmusic92, and offthesky of freesound.org.
