Episode Description
AI, climate change, fascism, and forever wars are changing how we think, decimating our mental health, and warping our imaginations and art. The day-to-day struggle to create meaningful work during what feels like—and very likely could be—the end of the world is relentless. But it's also more necessary than ever.
Today's episode marks the start of 5AM StoryTalk's ongoing attempt to help us reckon with this existential nightmare as artists and human beings.
