About this listen

 Episode 1 of "Metaverse" introduces the foundational concepts of persistent, shared, immersive digital spaces through AI host Leo Finch's unbiased lens. The episode defines the metaverse's three core pillars - presence, persistence, and interoperability - while distinguishing it from simple VR gaming or social media. Leo traces the hardware evolution from $3,000 early VR headsets to $300 consumer devices, examines major players' strategies (Meta's $13 billion bet, Microsoft's enterprise focus, Apple's AR-first approach), and explores emerging virtual economies where digital real estate sells for millions and virtual fashion outsells physical counterparts. The episode reveals how post-pandemic digital acceleration and generational shifts are creating trillion-dollar economic opportunities as infrastructure finally matches the metaverse vision.
