Green Dreamer: Seeding change towards collective healing, sustainability, regeneration

How do we listen to the land when so much ecological change and disruption have already taken place? What do we listen for, and how do we know what it all means?
Today, we’re speaking with ethnoecologist Timoteo Granzotti, who co-founded People of the Forest and supports the work of Indigenous food sovereignty in the Amazon and beyond.

What might we see when we look to AI as a collective mirror?
Philosopher, writer, and poet Dr. Bayo Akomolafe joins me today for the second time to explore how AI troubles our ideas of individual authorship, ethics, and human exceptionalism.
When it comes to AI, issues of labor, ecological impact, and data mining are pressing and real — and they call for dedicated episodes that we'll be planning for.
This discussion is not so much about AI itself as it is an invitation to sit with questions that are more ontological — reflecting back on ourselves, and on how we've come to define the human.
As we spiral into the violence of inclusion toward the end, I ask: What does it mean to resonate with something philosophically while acknowledging that there are urgent material conditions that need to be addressed?
Join us not to find resolutions but to be stirred.

Jon Jandai of Pun Pun Organic Farm and I sat down for an in-person dialogue when I visited Chiang Mai, Thailand, back in March of this year.
It builds on our podcast conversation from years ago, during which he shared about how he grew up in rural Thailand, was told by people on TV that rural people are backwards and poor, and consequently moved into the city to work a job to make more money.
But that led to an eventual revelation.
As Jon reflected in our conversation: "I thought, ‘Why did I work 10 hours per day in the city, yet not make enough to feed one person, but when I came back to the land, I worked only half an hour per day and I had enough food to feed six people?”
Thus seeded Jon's pathway to simple living.
Join us in this discussion as we chat about a different kind of wealth and security, how Jon views GDP growth as a sign of what we've lost, and more.
