823 - P.J. O'Rourke (Re-release): How The Hell This Happened? and Rest In Peace, P.J. O'Rourke

One of my favorite political commentators, author, and journalist, P.J. O'Rouke has recently passed away. So I decided to re-release an older episode with him, and may he rest in peace. ----Everyone’s favorite topic… Trump. I interviewed PJ O’Rourke back in May. But today (the day this show releases) is pretty much the one year anniversary of President Trump’s inauguration. And so I explore alternate realities with PJ, a 2x New York Times bestselling author, journalist, Irish Catholic hippie and a world of other contradictions.QUESTION:  “What would the country be like if all the First Ladies ran the country?”ANSWER: “We’re out of slavery in 1800 because Sally Hemings would’ve abolished it.”(That’s a chapter in his book. PJ tells you how the world would be different. He gives you scenarios to dream up a new world.)He also asks you to vote differently… Hypothetically, who would you vote for if you picked the president based on who you’d go on a road trip with.Our conversation makes you think. And laugh. And wonder. Which are the three keys to a free mind.So I give you, PJ O’Rourke, author of “How The Hell Did This Happen: The Election of 2016”Links and ResourcesThe National Lampoon, PJ was the Editor in Chief in the 70’s (back in John Belushi days)“Parliament of Whores: A Lone Humorist Attempts to Explain the Entire U.S. Government” by PJ O’Rourke“Give War a Chance” by PJ O’Rourke“On The Wealth of Nations” by PJ O’RourkeEzra Pound (poet)East Village Other (a competitor to The National Lampoon)The Village Voice (another popular magazine back in the 70’s)NPR’s debrief on BrexitMy interview with Ron Paul“The Art of The Deal” by Donald TrumpEisenhower’s Farewell AddressMy new book Skip The Line is out!

821 - Amy Webb and Andrew Hessel: Is Rewriting Life via Synthetic Biology the future?

As the world population grows every day, and methods of transportation get safer and safer every passing minute, will we run out of food supply? And will the organ transplant waitlist get longer?I was joined by Amy Webb, an American futurist, author, founder, and CEO of the Future Today Institute, and Andrew Hessel, microbiologist, geneticist, and entrepreneur, to talk about their new book, The Genesis Machine: Our Quest to Rewrite Life in the Age of Synthetic Biology.In this episode, we talked about will the fusion of biology and computers can help us prevent a potential food hunger, the especially limited amount of organs that needed for an organ transplant, and also potentially editing the gene of your offspring, your descendants to make them either stronger or cure them of the genetic disease.However, all this also comes with a bigger question. The ethics. Is editing the gene of your soon-to-be-born baby ethical? Or are we going against the law of nature?  Or using genetically engineered livestock for more food or organ for humans ethical?Listen to the episode, and tweet at me @jaltucher to let me know what do you think!My new book Skip The Line is out!
