THE CONTEXT
When I talk to people at the end of the conferences I keynote, they bombard me with questions, which I am very happy to answer, but the time is always less than we would want. I create content with the aim of building a shared understanding about the most important challenges for humankind. Do you want to know The Context around the most pressing topics of our society? Become part of The Context community and support my mission. Be a part of future episodes of The Context by asking me your most ambitious questions. Become a Patron: I am eager to create our future together with you! How does technology impact the lives of individuals? What is the role of learning and education in a rapidly changing world? Can we truly thrive in a world where machines are ever more empowered? Where are human values leading us, building a shared future? How can we find manageable answers in a complex world? My aim is to make this platform the place where we can explore these and other topics in a setting that is aimed to participants who are really passionate about the future, and our ability to positively influence it.

LEXITECTURE
A Canadian (Ryan) and a Scot (Amy) talking about the words in the English language that fascinate them most at the moment, looking at their histories and origins and trying to piece together just how they got to where they are today. This is a podcast for anyone interested in etymology (the study of words and their origins/history). If you've ever found yourself happier after discovering some bizarre bit of trivia about a word that you hadn't even given a second thought to (such as how the word 'trivia' relates to its Latin components meaning "three roads"), this might just be the podcast for you.
