About this listen

Insurgent conversations with the dissident thinkers, scientists, and activists shaping tomorrow. The people Ezra Klein won’t interview. Expect turbulence. Veteran activist & strategist David Fenton's podcast challenging the conventional, insider conversations of mainstream media. The Fenton Forecast asks: what future will we choose? AI-driven mass unemployment… or shared abundance? Climate collapse… or a livable planet? Billionaire control… or democracy? Media platforms of falsehood… or honest journalism? A sick health system… or regenerative agriculture and medicine? The Fenton Forecast is the anti-establishment podcast. It features leading dissidents and doers, not the usual pundits.© Fenton.Earth LLC Political Science Politics & Government Social Sciences
