Infinite Lunchbox Podcast

When I was in second grade, I had a lunchbox with Bert and Ernie on it. On the lunchbox, Bert was carrying a lunchbox, with Bert and Ernie on it. On that lunchbox, Bert was carrying a lunchbox...and I wondered: how far do the lunchboxes go? Am I in a lunchbox too?? You're opening the Infinite Lunchbox, for a fresh take on what's going on. I'm Stephanie Lepp, your monochromatic host. If you're new here, start with DEEP RECKONINGS, How to Transcend Post-Truth, and How to Agree on Science.

    How to imagine our better angels

    NEW INC invited me to give an artist talk about Deep Reckonings, moderated by the illustrious Kat Cizek. In it, I do something I've never done before: guide people in writing Deep Reckonings scripts! In other words, guide people in imagining our better angels. In this case, the better angel of Jeff Bezos. This episode is better watched on YouTube: http://bit.ly/newincsteph In related news: Deep Reckonings was nominated for a Webby Award! LET'S WIN :) Please take a minute to vote: bit.ly/deepwebby

  2. Steel Man: From Call-Out To Call-In

    Steel Man: From Call-Out To Call-In

    Call-out culture is all about straw manning: representing the weakest version of someone's position (or the weakest version of something they tweeted a decade ago). So call-IN culture would be all about STEEL manning: representing the strongest version of someone's position. But what would that actually look like in practice? This video is a teaser for a NEW INC talk I'm giving *this* Friday 4/16 from 11am-12:15 PT / 2-3:15pm ET. Join me to build some steel versions of our straw men: http://bit.ly/steelsteph Check out Deep Reckonings: https://www.deepreckonings.com Be in touch on Twitter: https://twitter.com/stephlepp​​​ Join the party on Patreon: http://patreon.com/stephlepp

  3. Post-Pandemic Education

    Post-Pandemic Education

    The New York Times has a headline this week: "Online Schools Are Here to Stay, Even After the Pandemic." The article does the predictable tug-of-war between online and in-person learning, ultimately arriving at the obvious conclusion that online learning works better for some students than others, and that online and in-person can be mixed-and-matched. Perhaps that conclusion is the place to start? And if we STARTED with an understanding that different schooling styles work better for different students, where would we END up? Show Notes: • New York Times' "Online Schools Are Here to Stay, Even After the Pandemic": https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/11/technology/remote-learning-online-school.html • Infinite Lunchbox episode on the integral matrix & integral strategy: https://bit.ly/integralstrategy Be in touch on Twitter: https://twitter.com/stephlepp​​ Join the party on Patreon: http://patreon.com/stephlepp

    How about a new game, Bezos?

    Amazon workers in Alabama are trying to unionize. And influential people are trying to convince Jeff Bezos to support the campaign: Bernie, Danny Glover, even THE PRESIDENT. But what might actually move Bezos to support unionization, and more broadly, *change the game*? Also -- for those of you on Clubhouse, I'm hosting a conversation about the future of journalism! Friday, April 2nd from 10-11:30am PT / 1-2:30pm ET.

  5. Influencers, Greek Gods, and LeBron James

    Influencers, Greek Gods, and LeBron James

    How are religious myths metaphorically true? What if influencers are our modern-day Greek Gods? In which case, perhaps the issue is less the fact that there are influencers, and more *what* they're influencing?

    COVID: Health vs. economy?!

    After a year of living with the pandemic, it's painfully obvious that we can't treat health and economy as either/or. So how to we treat them as both/and? What's the equivalent of sustainable development -- which economic development with sustainability -- for integrating economic development with *health*? And....what could such a phenomenon be CALLED? Put your ideas in the comments below :) Say howdy on Twitter: https://twitter.com/stephlepp​  Join the party on Patreon: http://patreon.com/stephlepp

  7. Disney and the Evolution of Consciousness

    Disney and the Evolution of Consciousness

    Have you noticed the evolution of Disney? Have you noticed how the concept of good vs. evil, the women characters, and other aspects of the storylines have evolved over time? WELL THEY HAVE. But does that mean I only want my daughter to watch the most recent Disney movies, with more redemptive conceptions of evil and empowered women characters? Not necessarily :) If you appreciate this video, please tweet it at Chloé Valdary: https://twitter.com/cvaldary And if you appreciate this channel, please become a patron!: http://patreon.com/stephlepp

    Gun Legislation and the Power of "Formers"

    In the aftermath of the Atlanta and Boulder shootings, we're doing the gun legislation impasse rigamarole. What could move things forward? Might it be helpful to hear from public servants who *expanded* their views on gun control — to include both gun rights and gun safety? Introducing the power of FORMERS.
