Innovation arrivals over the next decade will contain 200 years of advancements--but what impact will there be on privacy, daily lives, our relationships, and our future? With political and cultural polarization dominating headlines, who is asking the questions and discussing the impacts of innovations that is not rooted in a reality show format? As humans become one with their innovations (e.g., biohacks, transhumanism, artificial intelligence), we are ignoring "the ramifications of innovation singularity." This podcast show is focused on the ramifications, questioning the implications and giving decision making back to consumers who too often view innovations as benevolent.

The Second Coming of the Renaissance of War
With augmented reality becoming common, virtual reality growing in its sophistication, and the ability to superimpose innovations on top of “common” reality continues to rapidly accelerate. In general, it seems that our innovation advancements in sciences, healthcare, transportation, entertainment, and finance have afforded us the ability to adjust our circumstance to create a world we would like to see. We alter our perceptions intentionally, and sometimes in the process, permanently alter current realities. We seek to control multifaceted categories of our daily lives and replace them with a utopia which we embrace with limited due diligence.

Innovation Addiction: The NEW drug of Choice
an you imagine waking up without your smart phone, its news feeds, the alerts for topics of interest, or even, texting? Have you unplugged from the growing intelligence and feeds intertwined in your life, home, and work? Do you feel helpless, anxious, or out-of-body when you don’t react to the asynchronous interruptions happening with increased frequency?

When we spend more time interacting with non-humans than humans, what consequences does this have for our families, interpersonal relationships, economic outlooks, social support systems, and of course society?

Politics, Change and Conflict--An Unholy Innovation Trio
Estimates put 40% of the current workforce at risk of being displaced within the next two decades just as governmental educational support post-high school declines. Meaning, just as work forces need a boost, retraining and additional skills, the money spent on citizens to contribute to national GDP is scheduled to decline 45% by 2021. Where will living wage jobs come from if the US government continues to rack up trillion-dollar yearly deficits, while decreasing worker competitiveness and value?

The Flipside: Utopian or Dystopian
In this inaugural show, we lay the foundation for why future innovations cannot always be benevolent. Historically we have assumed that our innovations will improve our lives. We have assumed that the creators of the innovation are looking out for our personal good and social well-being. Moreover, what is wrong with a dialogue, not steeped reality show delivery, that examines potential outcomes? The time to question our surroundings has come as technological advances continue to blur the realities between synthetic innovations and real humans.
