    Today's guest is Marjorie Kelly, Distinguished Senior Fellow at The Democracy Collaborative and author of an incredible new book about how Wealth Supremacy is an emergency equal to climate.

In this episode we speak about how solving climate for the future goes hand in hand with solving the finance emergency, talk about how collective ownership of companies is the way forward, and discuss the issues that so many of us in society are feeling today through the lens of an unprecedented cost of living crisis that is the product of a globa, emergency we need to address.
