  <description><![CDATA[For more than thirty years I've been on the radio talking about what's coming next, from technology and work to money, food and how we live. In Then and Now I play you what I actually said, with the date on it and nothing changed, and then I tell you how it turned out and what I make of it now. Season one is The Years: one short episode for every year from 2006 to 2026, from MySpace and the financial crisis to the iPad, 3D printing, lab-grown meat, COVID and AI. Some of my calls held and some missed, and you'll hear both. I'm Morris Misel, a futurist and keynote speaker. The Tuesday email: https://welcome.morrismisel.com/join]]></description>
