Introducing season eight of ‘What Happens Next?’

What happens when we stop playing? Are humans on the verge of evolution? And are we becoming more rude?

An all-new season of the multi-award nominated What Happens Next? podcast launches later this month, and will tackle these questions and more.

Your host, Dr Susan Carland, addresses a new set of topics looking at the future we’re facing if we don’t change, the future we could have if we do, and how to get the kind of future we all want. This season, she sits down with world-leading experts and thought leaders from across the globe, who will share their insights and research on play, climate anxiety, transhumanism, influencer culture, escapism and civility.
