In this episode of I’ve Got Questions, I sit down with Andrew Hessel, microbiologist, geneticist, author and pioneering voice in synthetic biology, a field that is redefining how we understand and engineer life itself.
We explore what happens when biology becomes programmable and every cell, virus, and even our own DNA can be edited, rewritten, and redesigned.
Andrew explains how breakthroughs in digital biology could make infertility a thing of the past, why diseases like cancer and diabetes could soon be treated at the cellular level, and how a new era of genetic surgery could let us reprogram our bodies before illness ever begins.
We also unpack the ethical, emotional, and philosophical questions of what it means to live in a world where we can literally reprogram life.

In this episode of I’ve Got Questions, I sit down with futurist, author, and strategic foresight professor Alexander Manu to explore how AI is reshaping the meaning of work, creativity, and identity.
He explains how technology has always been a bridge to new forms of human expression, and how AI may usher in the most creative, personalized era of human history.
Manu argues that we need to transcend the idea that our identity is tied to our jobs because AI is not just another tool that will change the workforce, but it’s also a mirror forcing us to ask, “What else can I become?”

Giordano breaks down how blockchain could slash closing costs by up to 75%, why transferable mortgage bonds could let investors move low interest rates to new properties, how tokenization is opening U.S. commercial real estate to foreign capital, and why he predicts the entire industry will operate on blockchain within a decade.

Then, civil rights leader Gary Chambers joins to break down Louisiana’s high-stakes mayoral race and how Black voters can reclaim power through participation.

OpenAI just launched a full-on browser called ChatGPT Atlas, and it’s not just another Chrome clone with a chatbot slapped on top. This thing is wild. It remembers what you work on, chats with you across every tab, and can literally act as an AI agent that books flights, edits documents, and automates your web tasks.
In this video, I break down everything new in OpenAI’s browser, from agent mode and cursor chat to browser memory, and show why this could completely change how we use the internet. Is this the beginning of the AI browser wars, or just another step toward full-on AI agents taking over our screens? Let’s find out!

In this episode of Two Outspoken, Mehdi Hasan and Owen Jones unpack the growing anti-immigrant, anti-Muslim rhetoric in the aftermath of the ‘Unite the Kingdom” rally in London organized, organized by the far-right thug and convicted criminal Tommy Robinson. Part of the event quickly devolved into chaos as protesters clashed with some 1,600 police officers who were deployed to the scene, resulting in the arrests of at least 24 individuals.
@OwenJonesTalks: “It’s fascism all over again. It’s the same tune they sung in the 1930s and 1940s. They just swapped, this time, Jews for Muslims. And they’re also talking about the left in exactly the same way.”
But the rally wasn’t just about immigration, because Robinson also used it to honor US right-wing activist Charlie Kirk and Elon Musk joined via video link. Despite most Brits being unfamiliar with Kirk before his assassination, Mehdi asks one major question: Are British politics, especially British conservative politics, becoming Americanized? MAGA-fied?
The two also break down the glaring double standard between the policing of far-right and pro-Palestine protesters in the UK, after 890 people were arrested the week prior at a Palestine Action protest.
They also discuss Keir Starmer and his cabinet reshuffle, Jeremy Corbyn’s new party, the future of the Labour Party, and Owen’s recent trip to the occupied West Bank, where he says he witnessed “apartheid”.

Lauren Kunze, the CEO of Pandorabots and Co-founder of ICONIQ, tells Bloomberg's Francine Lacqua that "OpenAI's shift to erotica is deeply shocking" in terms of the wider impact it could have on society and generative AI users. The update is part of OpenAI's efforts to monetize its user base, as chatbot romance and erotic roleplay have proven to be money makers for other companies. In contrast, Pandorabots has decided not to expand its chatbots to include romantic companions. Kunze was speaking at the Bloomberg Tech summit in London.

As new data emerges, many are asking what’s really happening with the U.S. travel industry. This video explores the visible slowdown at empty airports USA and what it might reveal about air travel decline and consumer priorities in 2025.
Rather than predicting an ending, this documentary analyzes patterns showing how travel demand 2025 has shifted due to technology, pricing, and new lifestyle choices. The U.S. tourism slowdown reflects a global change in how people move, work, and plan leisure — a story of transformation more than disappearance.
Our educational breakdown examines:
What airport passenger data reveals about post-pandemic travel recovery.
How the aviation industry trends are redefining flight frequency and affordability.
The link between business travel drop and broader travel economy USA adjustments.
While headlines focus on “empty airports,” the full picture is far more complex. Rising operational costs, environmental goals, and digital connectivity all play a role in shaping airline capacity USA and the cost of flying USA.
The aim is to understand—not dramatize—the potential future of U.S. travel, where technology and policy could build a more efficient, sustainable aviation system for the next decade.
If you want to know why U.S. travel industry patterns are changing, what the U.S. tourism slowdown means for local economies, and how air travel decline fits into a global shift, this video provides a clear and educational view.
The End of U.S. Travel (2025) – Empty Airports Signal the End of an Era

Russell Vought is one of the most powerful people in the Trump administration. For almost three decades, he worked in Congress and held prominent roles at conservative think tanks. But he was little known outside of political circles. He’s now the director of the White House Office of Management and Budget and the chief architect of President Donald Trump’s campaign to radically reduce the size of the federal bureaucracy.
In this video, ProPublica reporter Andy Kroll tells the story of Vought’s rise from a young staffer for Texas Sen. Phil Gramm to his role as the driving force behind Trump’s plan to dismantle the so-called “administrative state.” Vought declined to be interviewed. Kroll’s account is drawn from dozens of interviews, thousands of pages of documents and hours of videos and recordings of Vought’s briefings to supporters, including one where Vought says he wanted to put federal workers “in trauma.”
Read Kroll’s profile of Vought, co-published with The New Yorker: https://propub.li/497DlMk

Operating from their base in Jakarta, where permissive export laws have allowed their surveillance business to flourish, First Wap’s European founders and executives have quietly built a phone-tracking empire, with a footprint extending from the Vatican to the Middle East to Silicon Valley.
It calls its proprietary system Altamides, which it describes in promotional materials as “a unified platform to covertly locate the whereabouts of single or multiple suspects in real-time, to detect movement patterns, and to detect whether suspects are in close vicinity with each other.”
Altamides leaves no trace on the phones it targets, unlike spyware such as Pegasus. Nor does it require a target to click on a malicious link or show any of the telltale signs (such as overheating or a short battery life) of remote monitoring.
First Wap emphasizes that its technology is used by law enforcement to “fight against organized crime, terrorism and corruption.” It sells Altamides directly, as well as through third-party resellers. The company said in a statement that it does not provide “any tracking services to government entities or similar”—that is, it does not perform any tracking itself—and that “after installation” it has no further involvement in or knowledge of how its product is used. It said it sells solely to “government entities, which have a clear and verified legal mandate to obtain and operate such products” and it “vets and verifies” users “for sanctions compliance.” The company’s contracts state that customers must comply with anti-corruption laws and “there must not be any business transaction with a sanctioned entity,” and First Wap said it adheres to these rules “no matter what any sales personnel may state verbally.” Of the company’s interactions with undercover reporters at the Prague conference, it said that “misunderstandings evidently arose” and that the statements by its executives referred merely to “technical feasibility.”
Last year the investigative newsroom Lighthouse Reports obtained a secret archive, containing more than a million instances where Altamides was used to trace cell phones all over the world. This data trove, the majority of which spans 2007 to 2014, is one of the largest disclosures to date of the inner workings of the vast surveillance industry. It does not just list the phone numbers of people who were monitored; it offers, in many cases, precise maps of their movements, showing where they went and when. Over months of research, Lighthouse, Germany’s Paper Trail Media, Mother Jones, Reveal, and an international consortium of partners dug into these logs to understand who was being spied on and why. We identified surveillance targets in 100 countries and spoke to dozens of them. We obtained confidential documents and communications outlining how Altamides—an acronym for “Advanced Location Tracking and Mobile Information and Deception System”—was marketed and deployed. We also interviewed industry insiders and former employees of the company about its operations and clientele.
What we found changes what we know about the history of surveillance technology, demonstrating the proliferation of dangerous tools well before Edward Snowden brought the issue to global attention.
