The Change Optimist
Welcome to The Change Optimist podcast hosted by Mathew Growden (a.k.a. Growdy). A weekly podcast of interesting conversations with interesting people.
Episodes
Megan Leslie and I talk about the carbon bomb, we reminisce about university (I guess I do that a lot), and Megan explains that she's always wanted to work on issues related to justice, which led her to become the President and CEO of the World Wildlife Fund Canada.
It was wonderful to catch up with Aimée Morrison and talk about her knack for going viral, how we need to embrace the physical nature of learning, and how AI writing isn't writing. We also got a bit nostalgic for our days in university.
Kara Swisher and I sit down for a chat about tech, automotive, the state of autonomous vehicles, and how probably only San Francisco lesbians can save us. We cover a lot of ground in what Kara calls "a lovely, thoughtful chat."
Her new book, Burn Book, is available now.
In this introductory podcast, I explain a little bit about how this podcast came into existence. And I also talk about what you can expect in the next few episodes.
