In the latest episode of The Last Stand Podcast, we discuss the looming challenge of automation and the case for a universal basic income with Taylor Jo Isenberg, managing director of the Economic Security Project.

Co-chaired by Natalie Foster, Dorian Warren, and Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes, the Economic Security Project is a two year fund that will support exploration and experimentation with unconditional cash stipends.

During our interview with Taylor, we explore the future of work and discuss the components of universal basic income and other cash stipend programs. We also examine the need for a more nuanced discussion about the potential impacts of automation on our nation’s workforce and economy.
