What if we simply stopped trying to predict the future, based on various passive indicators, and simply seized the future as ours, and shaped it into what we need it to be? Upcoming seasons of the podcast will cover how to envision cities in the future so that they, and we, evolve and thrive. Past seasons of the podcast have covered indie publishing and book marketing. The episodes are an open conversation about how to create online communities that are diverse, welcoming, and safe. In each episode, Lee Schneider interviews a platform creator, an author, or publisher about their projects and the communities they are building online.
