Is The World F*cked?

著者: Bruce McCabe & Paul Jones
  • サマリー

  • Welcome to "Is The World F*cked?" - a weekly raw and irreverent look at the future... starting today! We look at where the world's going in technology, economics, social policies and lots of other crazy sh*t!

    We get real about where we could be going if we got our act together, what scares the hell out of us, and what makes our heads spin.

    Your hosts are Dr Bruce McCabe, The Global Futurist, and Bruce's mate, "PJ" Jones, one of the original digital marketers in this world. We kick around the big issues everyone's thinking about but might hesitate to raise in polite company, while keeping it real and having some fun. Because, without the laughs, what's the point? And then we try to decide in the end, is the world f*cked, or not?

    You can check out our "day jobs" at www.brucemccabe.com and www.alexim.com.au respectively, although this podcast was never meant for our clients (we're scared to death they'll find it). This podcast is for YOU - if you're thinking about the big stuff - and whether the world is f*cked, or not!

  • #45 - Death by Selfie
    2024/02/19

    Is narcissism on the rise? Are we all in danger if losing our souls behind a cloud of selfies and avocado-on-toast pics and ‘look at me’ TikTok dance videos? Yep, it’s only one of the biggest questions of our time, and today your fearless and dynamic duo of podcasting is diving in! PJ offers advice on how to spot a narcissist. Dr Bruce exhibits an unhealthy fixation with the Queen of Denmark. And at some stage we try to squeeze in some actual science (but we don't try very hard).
    Oh and by the way, dear listener, did we sound amazing? Were we sexy and sophisticated? Did you like our cover pic? Did you share us with all your friends? Did you? Huh? Did you?
    :-)

    And for the gruesomely minded, here's that list of selfie-related injuries and deaths we talked about!

    And for the record, when we're doing real work and not podcasting, you'll find Dr Bruce, The Global Futurist presenting here and PJ applying his digital marketing genius here. Enjoy!

  • #44 - Blowing Up Hydrogen - Part 2
    2024/02/12

    H2, what is it good for? After calling out the scam-artists and greenwashers and setting a match to just about every hydrogen project on the planet based on the sky-high energy-input requirements and appalling economics, we’re putting on our nice guy hats to look at where that fab little molecule makes sense. But you know us: fun is our name and irreverence is our game, so of course we also rake over a few more pet H2 projects sponsored by Big Gas before offering some gratuitous and entirety unsolicited advice to our good friends at Toyota!

    And if you're looking for Bruce’s calculations referenced in the episode, you’ll find them in this article. And his interview with Michael Barnard on hydrogen and our energy future can be found here.

  • #43 - Blowing Up Hydrogen - Part 1
    2024/02/06

    Hydrogen projects are everywhere and hey, they’re green, right? Water at the tailpipe? No CO2 emissions? And Toyota has bet BIG so it’s gotta be good. What’s not to like?
    Turns out, plenty … Your loveable rogues are kicking off 2024 with a BANG this episode by checking out the good, the bad and the ugly of the universe’s smallest and most plentiful atom, and as always, we’re not holding back! It’s planes, trains and Hindenbergs ladies and gentlemen, so fasten your seatbelts. What colour would you like your Hydrogen? Black, grey, blue or green?
