  • S3E13: The Future of Work Is Being Rewritten: Hybrid, Remote, AI, and the New Workforce Reality

    S3E13: The Future of Work Is Being Rewritten: Hybrid, Remote, AI, and the New Workforce Reality
    Mar 31 2026

    In this episode, Brian speaks with Dr. Laura Reeves to unpack the realities behind one of the biggest shifts in the modern workplace. From productivity and trust to fairness and generational expectations, we go beyond the headlines to explore what's actually changing — and what isn't.

    They discuss why hybrid work looks very different depending on your role, why some employees benefit far more than others, and how organizations are struggling to balance flexibility with performance. This show also examines the return-to-office debate, the growing influence of Gen Z in shaping workplace norms, and what all of this means for the future of organizations.

    Finally, they explore how artificial intelligence could fundamentally reshape jobs, decision-making, and productivity in the years ahead — and whether leaders are prepared for what's coming.

    In this episode:
    • What "hybrid work" really means in practice
    • The tradeoffs between flexibility, productivity, and trust
    • Why fairness — not just flexibility — is becoming a key issue
    • How Gen Z is redefining expectations around work
    • The real impact of return-to-office mandates
    • AI's role in shaping the future of jobs and organizations

  • S3E11: A Conversation About Misinformation, Disinformation and Propaganda with Peter Pomerantsev

    S3E11: A Conversation About Misinformation, Disinformation and Propaganda with Peter Pomerantsev
    Feb 3 2026
    In an age where misinformation spreads faster than truth — and reality itself feels increasingly hard to define — how do information wars actually work? In this episode, Brian is joined by Peter Pomerantsev, one of the world's leading thinkers on propaganda, disinformation, and political warfare. Peter is a journalist, author, and Senior Fellow at the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University where he co-directs the Arena Initiative. His work explores how modern power operates through narratives, identity, and emotional manipulation rather than facts alone. We discuss how authoritarian regimes — and increasingly, decentralized digital ecosystems — use disinformation not to persuade, but to confuse, exhaust, and fragment societies. Drawing on Peter's books Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible, This Is Not Propaganda, and How to Win an Information War, this conversation traces the evolution of propaganda from Cold War radio operations to today's algorithm-driven reality distortion. We also explore the unsettling ethical dilemma facing democracies today: Can open societies defend truth without resorting to the same manipulative tactics used against them? In this conversation, we cover: How modern disinformation targets identity and belonging — not belief Why confusion and cynicism are often the real goals of propaganda Lessons from WWII "black propaganda" and their relevance today The limits of fact-checking and media literacy What actually works to defend democratic reality at scale This is a wide-ranging discussion about power, psychology, technology, and the future of truth itself — and why the battle over information may be the defining conflict of our time. 🔔 Subscribe for more long-form conversations with leading thinkers, journalists, and experts shaping our understanding of the world.
