Episode notes

525 days ago, I began looking at the state of the world every century, then every fifty years, and finally every twenty-five years as the pace of change accelerated.

After almost a year and a half, we have finally reached the present….or at least the world as it was three weeks ago.

The first quarter of the 21st century was a period of dramatic changes, and in some ways, very little change…..and most of you were there for the whole thing.

Learn more about the world in the year 2025 and how the world changed in the 21st century on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
