I wrote a dystopian science fiction novel last year, and early in the book, I included this footnote...
Perhaps you’re thinking, Dear Reader, that the “world-building” in these pages is a little weak for a science fiction novel. That’s because I’m portraying the near future, and the near future won’t have flying cars and space empires.
Due to declining IQ across civilization, we no longer get macro-innovations like air travel and space flight. We get micro-innovations (better smartphones, faster internet, better AI, etc) that entrench technology deeper in our lives. Until we break out of the statist paradigm (organizing society as a cult around the cathedral of corruption - the government) or the widespread implementation of human gene editing (producing an abundance of +150 IQ babies), all we’ll have is micro-innovation in technology. Which is portrayed in this novel.
Civilization is starving for macro-innovation. And my guest, Dr. Andrew Colarik--a traveling scholar, nomad, and entrepreneurial academic--has a solution in the form of his Problem-to-Publication Method (P2P Method).

Listener takeaway: Is there a topic that you've always wanted to master but procrastinated on diving into that you could devote 20 hours to this year?
My conversation with Dr. Colarik inspired this song about academia...
