Episode 165 - The Don's Top 20 Countdown: 4 Ben Jones

A Pint With Seaniebee

The Don and Seaniebee deliver their US Election post-mortem and discuss why so many people voted for more of the same from Trump and how the trajectory "The Left" is taking right now may be doing more harm than good. The Don also continues her top 20 "best of" with technology and blockchain specialist, Ben Jones. *********************************** Ben Jones is all over the future of technology. As the founder of Bull In a China Shop, he advises brands and organizations on how best to navigate what’s next. He joins the pod to explain the workings and importance of the emerging Blockchain phenomenon and how the Internet has been hijacked to the point that its founder, Tim Berners-Lee, has recently re-emerged to try and course-correct his invention. We discuss the possible future of Facebook and why it may come crashing down; how we are all heading towards a “glassless future” with chips in our brains; and we speculate on which person might best represent the achievement of the human species over the past century.
