Hi Friend,

Hope you're staying cool if you're in the Northern Hemisphere.


We're mostly lucky here in the SF Bay Area with our natural air conditioning aka the fog.


But we had a few hot days where the glorious fog didn't make its daily morning appearance.


We're traveling next week to the East Coast to visit family and -- oh boy -- I'm getting myself mentally read for the oppressive heat!


(And making my must-visit tourist list for DC and Chicago. Any recommendations? Send them my way!)


Who here loves learning? Raise your hand!


Trick question!

Interview with Michael Kilman, co-author of Build Better Worlds, part 1 of 2

“I think if you’re writing truthfully, because that’s what we’re trying to do a lot of times as author, telling a good story, but being honest in our writing and in terms of the human experience, I think it really helps to have some sort of guidepost for how do we build these human experiences?”

– Michael Kilman


In this episode

  • Michael shares his history and interest in anthropology

  • How this helped shape chapters of the book Build Better Worlds, co-authored with Kyra Wellstrom
