Marshall McLuhan Called 2020 Years Ago Digital Poets

This week we're looking at two modern poets & prophets, Marshall McLuhan and Wendell Berry. Both their messages paint a remarkable picture of what life can look like once we take control over technology (rather than letting it take control of us)…and serve as a warning that we ignore at our own peril. Their ideas will serve as a foundation for the next several episodes focused on a new way to look at social media in an age where our privacy, data, and self-worth are at stake.
