Tech it or leave it: what is the best technology?
The bed, writing, antibiotics? In this podcast we ask: how do we define technology, and can we objectively measure the best of it? We take a look at potential metrics - from the number of people who benefit to quantifying the overall happiness created - and wonder whether the best is yet to come.
A few things we mentioned in this podcast:
- Estimates of historical world population https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimates_of_historical_world_population
- Timeline of inventions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_historic_inventions
- The philosophy of intellectual property https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/intellectual-property/

On the hunt: what does it take to be a National Treasure?
In this podcast, we discuss what it takes to be awarded National Treasure status: from niceness metrics and longevity to likeability and media endorsement. We reason why David Attenborough most definitely is a National Treasure while Bradley Walsh—alas—probably isn't, and predict who might be bestowed the honorific in decades to come.
