  • 461: Are tech billionaires the new gods of a secular age?
    Mar 3 2025
    This week, Christian chats with comedian Garrett Millerick about his standup show, Just Trying to Help, which is available to watch on YouTube now, and is recommended.

    The thrust of the conversation is about our relationships with people like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg (and to a lesser extent Richard Branson...) and how they influence the modern world.

    While it might be a slight diversion from the usual conversation on this show, we do refer to generative AI, a regular topic of discussion here.

    Our wide-ranging chat takes in everything from baby names to iPhone-based immortality, and I think you will enjoy it.
