The game has changed, and not in your favour.

In this episode, Prof Guy Standing talks bout how rentier capitalism is quietly eating away at your future, turning workers into disposable pieces while the top stack cash just by owning things.

He breaks down why the “precariat” is growing fast, and why most of us are way closer to it than we’d like to admit.

We also get into how technology, artificial intelligence (AI) and automation are reshaping who gets security and who gets left behind… and no, the market won’t fix it on its own.

Basic income, political pressure and a total rethink of power? It’s not idealism. It might be survival.
