The award-winning tech podcast that asks : "Are we the ones breaking the world?" Most tech podcasts are an echo chamber for builders. We step outside. We talk to the observers, the social scientists, and the deep thinkers who study the friction we create and the human systems we disrupt. Lianne Potter and Jeff Watkins strip away the industry fluff and pit academic research against the harsh reality of real organisations and real human incentives. We don’t just talk about AI, security, and automation; we explore the unintended consequences of our own "elegant" solutions. We’re here to look at tech through a different lens and ask the uncomfortable questions that the industry usually avoids. Because if you’ve built a system that has become everyone else's problem, you have to ask: "Am I the compromising position here?"
