For people who want to understand everything. Every week, NLW takes something about right now that doesn’t seem to make sense and explains, in about an hour, how we got here. Why tech went from America’s most trusted industry to one of its least. Why every phone has a sportsbook on it. Why so many people you know are on GLP-1s. Why we’ve been scared of AI for as long as we’ve had computers. The answers run through economics, politics, culture and technology, and they’re almost always more interesting than the version you’ve been told.
