  • 47. Building Cities on Water: Grant Romundt's Vision for Floating Communities
    Jun 30 2025

    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.

  • 46. Building Empathy at Scale: How XR is Rewilding Human Connection with ⁠Ulrico Grech-Cumbo⁠
    Jun 3 2025

    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.

  • 42. Government as a Service: Building Tomorrow's Cities with Titus Gebel
    Jan 16 2025

    Imagine being able to cancel your government subscription, just like you cancel Netflix. Sounds crazy? Not to Titus Gebel.

    With a PhD in international law and an entrepreneur's spirit, Titus is pioneering "free private cities" - places where the relationship between citizens and government works like a service contract.

    How these cities are already being built (and sometimes fought against) Why traditional governments might be outdated by 2074 What daily life looks like when government is a service How free private cities could solve issues like overregulation and high taxes The fascinating experiments happening right now, from Honduras to seasteading pods in Panama

    Whether you're frustrated with current political systems or curious about alternative ways to organize society, this episode offers a glimpse into a possible future where you choose your government, not the other way around.
