Timing is everything, and at this insane political moment, I got to record these words - the final ones of Hacking Your Mind, our show about the modern perils of our ancient brains - just now. #democracy #decisions #bias #future #voiceover
Workdays like this are so enjoyable it’s embarrassing. Here’s the sound studio, run by the amazing Chris Hedge, that I get to use for VO as we finish Hacking Your Mind, a documentary about the science of bias and human manipulation. (All praise to producer Carl Byker, who makes it possible to be here.) And the second I finish tracking and walk out the door, bang, I’m practically in the Pacific. May this work never end. #bias #documentary #hackingyourmind #NSF #voiceover

I learned that I loved public speaking in part from this appearance on @thejoeroganexperience, where @JoeRogan held me to an impossible standard: three straight hours of off-the-cuff, razor-sharp questioning on everything from where dreams live in the brain to the ethics of automation. That guy’s a monster. #GlobalSpeaker #Speaker #AI #AIandEthics #PublicSpeaking #NewTechnologies #Disruption #Innovation #Change #InnovationsandInequality
Bought on a business trip to Hermosa Beach when I realized all I’d packed was dress clothes, this, my favorite piece of summer clothing is about to disintegrate. I’ve worn it to the gym at least once a week, I planted trees in it, camped in it, my kids and wife occasionally sleep in it. I’ll miss you, fake lifeguard jersey. #hermosabeach #lifeguards #beachpatrol #fakingit #california #summer
Happy 4th, all. Portrait c/o @asherald
