Episode description
To celebrate the end of our first season of this podcast, we're delighted to share this conversation with Rutger Bregman- the person who inspired this project.
Rutger is a journalist, historian, and the author of Humankind: A Hopeful History, in which he challenges the assumption that people are inherently selfish and competitive. Instead, he argues that we are hard-wired for kindness and collaboration, and this is what has led to our flourishing as a species.
In this conversation we dive into a range of topics from news cycles, to Rutger's next book and why the key to creating a better future starts with the belief that we're better than we think we are.
