The Sprint of Transformation: Why the Future is More Human Than You Think
Between 1837 and 1903, humanity invented the lightbulb, telephone, automobile, and airplane—all within a single human lifespan. Today, we're experiencing that same scale of transformation, except we're not walking through it. We're sprinting. In this special episode of The Good News Is..., Rachel explores the three revolutionary shifts happening right beneath our noses: how we heal, how we connect, and how we create. While headlines focus on AI replacing jobs and technology destroying humanity, we want to show you the signal through the noise—the remarkable ways technology is making life more human, not less. What You'll Discover: How brain-computer interfaces and AI are democratizing healthcare access globally. Why we're witnessing the birth of a new internet where you own your data and digital identity. How the creative renaissance isn't replacing human artistry—it's amplifying it The surprising pendulum swing toward ancient wisdom happening alongside digital acceleration. Why the stories we tell about technology will determine the future we create This isn't naive optimism. It's necessary hope backed by real examples of technology serving human flourishing.

Context S4: The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Most Visited Museum in America Dives into NFTs
Blake speaks with The Metropolitan Museum of Art team who recently released Art Links, marking The Met’s first foray onto the blockchain. Art Links is a 12-week game that invites you to connect the dots between seeming disparate art works (whether centuries apart, completely different mediums, etc.) according to different themes, rewarding you in the form of NFT badges and IRL prizes. Blake has played religiously every week, and has learned a tonne! 3 of the project leads are here to talk about the game: Destinee Filmore, Assistant Curator in the Department of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Met, Brett Renfer, The Met's Senior Project Manager for Emerging Technologies and Audrey Ou, co-founder and CEO of TRLab. They dive deep into the project, from how long it took to plan and launch, to the intended audience, to why they chose Base, to the art they included. Blake also couldn’t resist asking Destinee about if (and when) the Met will collect their first crypto art works. If you want to get a read on the traditional art world and how they are engaging with NFTs…you can’t really get bigger than this. The Met is the most visited museum in America, and one of the most important cultural institutions in the world.
