In this episode of Tomorrow Comes Today, Matt and Rob are joined by technologist Azeem Azhar, writer Karla Starr and social engineer Jenny Radcliffe to discuss the importance of accessing a new way of thinking in which our minds must be clear of the panic of the here and now, in order to help us plan for the problems of the future.

Season 2, Episode 2: Moving beyond our assumptions

In this episode of Tomorrow Comes Today we ask the questions: How can the biases we hold within us affect the decisions we make and the work we produce? Ultimately, how do they shape our future?

Matt Potter, Rob Gardner and Vicki Foster explore these questions through three different lenses with our guests this week - the future of the world we live in with futurist Mark Stevenson, the future of aging with Professor of Economics Andrew Scott and the algorithms that shape our lives with Dr Safiya Umoja Noble.

Season 2, Episode 1: Talk is cheap

How do you get past the easy answers and arrive at meaningful action? To mark International Women’s Day, Matt Potter, joined by St. James’s Place’s Rob Gardner and Vicki Foster, talks to journalist and author Annabelle Williams about just that – exploring why women are poorer than men and what to do about it. He also catches up with the ex-head of finance and planning at one of the largest banks in Syria when the war broke out, Louai Al Roumani, about how to manage in a crisis. And he asks the former director of operations and intelligence for the British Secret Intelligence Service, Nigel Inkster, who will win the looming techno wars.

How can shining a light on different perspectives encourage us to learn, grow and develop? In this episode, hosts Matt Potter and Rob Gardner talk to some very special guests who are helping to shine that light. George Magnus, one of the world’s foremost experts on China, tells us how stepping away from the media narrative can increase our understanding of what’s really going on. Astrochemist Ashley Walker discusses how she is working to get black and female voices into science, while Barnaby Spurrier and Greg Nugent talk about their documentary, Rising Phoenix, which looks at the advent of the Paralympic Games and the future of the Paralympic movement.
