Introducing How We Got Here, a new show from AI Daily Brief host Nathaniel Whittemore (NLW). It's a show for people who want to understand everything.

How We Got Here explains the present by telling the full story of how it got this way. Each episode takes one important current trend or phenomenon and in about an hour, traces it back through the economics, politics, technology and culture that produced it.

It starts October 26 with How Tech Lost America, a deep dive on how tech went from the most trusted industry in the USA to something that everyone is mad at for some reason or another.

New episodes every Monday.
