Mizter Rad records this episode 11 meters underwater in one of Ocean Builders' revolutionary SeaPods off the coast of Panama.

Grant Romundt, CEO of Ocean Builders, shares how they're solving humanity's space crisis by building high-tech floating homes that create marine habitats instead of destroying them. From smart toilets to liquid-cooled AI brains, from jet ski elevators to waste treatment systems that clean water better than land-based plants - discover how ocean living might become as common as city apartments in the next 50 years. With floating cities already under construction in the Maldives and Saudi Arabia, Grant reveals why the ocean might be our next frontier for human habitation.

What if technology could make you feel like a whale or walk with elephants in the Serengeti?

Ulrico Grech-Cumbo, founder of Habitat XR, is using virtual reality to create "empathy at scale" - connecting millions to nature through immersive experiences that make your body believe you're actually in the wild.

We explore how XR might replace traditional zoos, why virtual nature creates real physiological responses, and whether digital experiences can solve our disconnection from the natural world. From filming lions in 360° to building the "zoos of the future," this conversation challenges everything you think you know about conservation and human connection.

Is this the future of environmental education, or are we just building more sophisticated barriers between humans and real nature?

The answer might determine the next 50 years of life on Earth.
