Looking at North American History through a More Real Refreshing Lens

 

Listen Now to The Dr. Future Show

According to award-winning journalist and historian Colin Woodard, North America is made up of eleven distinct nations, each with its own unique historical roots. With the help of Dr. Future’s mother, Irene Lambert, we use this lens of our collective past to gain a deeper insight into our real roots, beyond the simplistic national story of “One Nation Under God” into something more real, as we hurtle through the corridors of time, towards a future worth living.

Major NIH study on Living Past 90, Neanderthal update, Big Volvo Autopilot project, Smart Phones Change the Web 

Listen Now to Dr. Future News 5.06.14

The Longevity report covered in this week’s 60 Minutes caught our attention, dispelling typical myths about diet, alcohol, and coffee.  We also take a look at the oldest people still alive, to see how they stack up with this groundbreaking study.

We also take a look at the latest research in the times and lives of our cousins, the Neatherthals, and how our myths about their intelligence and capabilities, just might be completely wrong.

It’s also fascinating to see a major car company, Volvo, make such a big move into the autonomous car future by placing a test fleet of 100 autopiloted vehicles into circulation in their home town of Gothenburg, Sweden, with the help of  key players: legislators, transport authorities, a major city, a vehicle manufacturer and real customers. This will be an interesting experiment to follow!
