52 Future Now - New Luna Landings, Evolutionary Chiral Current Tech, Interview - Randall Lee Hopper on Free Food, Vitamins, and Tech for those in need

Listen to 52 Future Now Randall Lee Hopper

Some great space news this week, including a new US lunar lander touching down this month; if successful, the Nova-C Lunar Lander by Intuitive Machinesfirst US craft on the moon since 1972! We also explore what are known as ‘chiral currents,’ a new approach to tech which may be as significant as electrons are to modern day electronics!  

And we had a great interview with Randall Lee Hopper, a local visionary/entrepreneur who shares with us how is able to procure and distribute an abundance of free food, books, tools, vitamins, and consumer tech from both local, domestic, and international sources. We think you’ll appreciate his understanding of our region’s food recycling ecosystem.  He also shares with us his enthusiasm for of a new kind of social space where people can freely eat, drink, talk, read, and connect to create a better life.  Enjoy!

51 Future Now - Storming in CA, PACE Mission, Whale Tech, Master Now Georgia update, Glowing Plants, Bacterial Plastic to Silk transformers, STOL planes, IO Volcanism

Listen to Future Now 2.6.2024

We recorded this show in the aftermath of a large west coast storm, and if you listened in realtime, you would have heard the numerous tech glitches that happened, including dropping off the air multiple times.  But for the podcast version you get to focus on what we found most fascinating this week, not the glitches. In Space News, for example, the PACE mission will dramatically improve our tracking of life and weather over the Earth’s oceans, and led to a conversation on how other creatures of this planet may also benefit from our planetary tech.  If you like glowy things, consider the first commerical glowing house plant, a petunia with a biolumenescent gene from  a South American mushroom!  If that is too silly for you, consider deploying bio-engineered bacteria that eat our waste plastic, a relatively low cost/low impact approach to cleaning up our polymer messes.  We also have fun looking at the new Short TakeOff and Landing aircraft under development, the the exciting new infrared NASA photos of Jupiter’s highly volcanic moon, IO.  Hot spots all over, enjoy!

50 Future Now - Moon Lander falls over, Robots attacked, AI prevents potholes, Obelisks- a new life form, Russian Spirit Fest debuts

Listen to 50 Future Now Show

Even though the Japanese moon lander kind of crashed, it is still sort of functional..better than nothing! Robots are making their way into society, but not without some issues from the street..Obelisks-a new kind of life smaller than viruses than live within microbes..

This week we covered the “Spirit Fest,” a gathering of mostly Russian families in the Bay Area interested in mind/body/spirit aspects of life.  In a way it was reminiscent of the great Whole Life Expos of the 1980’s, yet very different in that most of the workshops were based on traditions from Russia and conducted in Russian. It was relatively small in size, with a few hundred folks in attendance including, I might add, many very beautiful women. There was evolution and change in the air, a good feeling! It was a day filled with workshops, meditations, tantric practices, music, dance, and mind-blowing transformational experiences .

We were guests of Svetlana Doroganich, a psychologist who had trained with Stanislav Grof, M.D., famous for his pioneering work in LSD Psychotherapy. In this week’s show, you will meet several of the festival’s presenters, including Svetlana, Dennis Zaika on cosmic energy, and Nikita with Alexaner, pioneers in the integration of spirit and psilocybin. Enjoy!

49 Future Now Show - Deep Fake Biden call, DNA Facial Recognition, 1K mile EV battery, Interview - Gingi Cia Medina update on green manufacturing

Listen to 49 Future Now 1.23.2024

Well, the next phase of deep fakes has begun, with a phoney  call from the Prez  during the NH primaries. And generating faces from DNA is now here as well, bringing new light into cold cases. But how accurate is it, what could go wroing? Plenty..  Meanwhile, a new bar for EV batteries has been set, with the introduction of the thousand mile battery, invented at MIT and funded by Lamborghini (now owned by VW).  

In our interview we catch up with organic clothing designer Gingi Medina and her beloved, Cia, as they are about to embark on a global adventure, with plans for creating a very green manufacturing facility for the fashion industry and the implementation  of a new super textile for clothing, thanks to behind-the-scenes work from NASA scientists.  Enjoy!

48 Future Now - Peregrine's Fiery End, Growing New Teeth Breakthrough, Medium Wendy Freeman Connects your Higher Self, Gabrielle and Billy Sunshine on an Abundance Economy and the Psychedelic Renaissance

Listen to Future Now 1.17.2024

The exciting  news this week is promising research showing we can grow new teeth later on in life! This is possible thanks to an antibody that can disrupt what’s known as the USAG-1 protein, in a way that allows the growth of new teeth while remaining healthy. Bobby Wilder gives us the download on this milestone of progress.  

Medium Wendy FreemanFeeling like there’s more to you than you are experiencing, a ‘higher self’ ready to serve you? You may be right, and if medium Wendy Freeman has anything to say about it, more people than ever will be making such contact this year, leading to a better reality for us all. After all, what are we here for?

We complete today’s show with our favorite talk show guest host colleagues, Billy Sunshine and Gabrielle Cianfrani.  Today we look at the Iowa Caucus, immigration, an abundance model for the economy, safety nets, negotiation strategies, and considerations for implementing psychedelic medicines into our health care system. Enjoy!
