Walter Isaacson: The Future of the Human Race

On this episode, Donny talks with bestselling author and former editor of Time Magazine, Walter Isaacson. Walter and Donny dive right in, discussing Elon Musk’s unprecedented purchase of Twitter and Walter's prediction for the future of the platform. They then dive into Walter's new book, The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race, and why we need people like Steve Jobs and Jennifer Doudna to stand at the intersection of humanity and science. But first Donny takes us through his "Brands of the Week,” naming Nancy Pelosi, Asa Hutchinson, Amazon, Samsung, and many more as either "up" or "down." THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS:Freshly - Go to http://www.freshly.com/DONNY for $125 offChime - Go to http://www.chime.com/DONNY to get startedDon't forget to rate, review, and follow to get the latest episodes as soon as they drop. Follow: @donnyjaydeutsch @walterisaacson See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
