About this listen

As humans merge ever more deeply with technologies that seem to be advancing impossibly fast, we have entered a new era—the Age of Acceleration—that will call our very humanity into question. Are you ready for what comes next?

With transformative technologies like artificial intelligence, extended realities, and quantum computing increasingly blurring the boundaries between human and machine, organic and synthetic, reality and virtuality, we find ourselves at a crossroads of history, contemplating:

Who am I?
What is real?
And what does it mean to be human in this new reality?

Deep-tech entrepreneur and futurist Sam Rad (Samantha Radocchia) has spent over a decade at the frontier of the technological revolution. In Radical Next, she guides listeners on an expedition into a future that challenges the most fundamental aspects of the human experience:

  • Self: How we think about who we are
  • Family, Faith, and Community: How we connect with the people in our lives
  • Organizations and Governance: How we work and what rules we set for society
  • The Big Picture: How we fit into the universe

Drawing from cutting-edge science and deep personal experience, Radical Next serves both as a forward-thinking manual for deprogramming from the conventional operating systems that have defined us for centuries and a provocative call to action to shape a future that is balanced, connected, and profoundly human.

Written with the analytical depth of a rogue anthropologist and the insightful perspective of a seasoned technologist and spiritual seeker, Radical Next is an essential handbook for creating a world that both embraces technological change and preserves the essence of our humanity.
