Future Grind is focused on exploring the possibilities, ethics, and implications of emerging science and technology. Hosted by television producer, entrepreneur, and futurist speaker Ryan O’Shea, Future Grind is dedicated to having the difficult but important societal conversations about the creation, distribution, and implementation of world-changing technology. We wish to increase technoliteracy by democratizing access to science and technology, and we strive to welcome more voices to these conversations.

As a podcast, Future Grind features in-depth interviews with innovators and thought leaders that are working to build our future. Artificial intelligence, robotics, human augmentation, space exploration, and the societal ramifications of these advancements are frequent topics of conversation.  As a VR explorer, Ryan live-streams virtual reality content from an Oculus Rift to examine the ways in which immersive, room-scale virtual experiences can be used for entertainment, education, and escape.
