  • AI Will Decide What's True. Are You Ready? | Vance Crowe University of Florida Lecture on AI
    Oct 15 2026

    Vance Crowe joins Dr. Kevin Folta's University of Florida classroom to explain the biggest shift happening on the internet right now: the move from the Google search era to the agentic AI era. For decades, truth online was decided by backlinks. Now AI decides what to surface based on who answers questions directly, publishes primary sources, and makes information easy to retrieve. That changes everything for anyone who wants their work to be found.

    Vance discusses his hypothesis: most of human office work is 80% focused on Copy/paste/search/schedule all of which AI will do for us going forward.

    Vance shares the four rules he discovered while making his own content visible to AI, then takes questions from students on misinformation, AI-generated content feeding on itself, consciousness, the wealth gap, corporate monopolies, and why he believes large companies secretly love activists. He closes with the single biggest opportunity young people have today: while the last generation spent 30 years in copy-paste jobs, students entering the workforce now can build with AI from day one.

    Plus: why human taste and preferences become more valuable, not less, in a world where AI can make anything.

  • How to Run a Business When Things Get Tight | Chris Barron
    Oct 8 2026

    Chris Barron returns to the podcast to talk with Vance about what happens when a business comes under pressure — and how the best leaders keep financial stress, poor communication and difficult decisions from pulling an operation apart.
    The pair also discuss leadership & employee training, investing in the right people, bringing outside perspectives into a business, managing margins instead of trying to predict markets, tracking where your time actually goes, and knowing when to delegate.
    Chris also explains how good businesses inevitably go through difficult cycles and how better data can lead to better decisions when things get tight.
    The conversation concludes with a look at the upcoming AgView Executive Business Conference in Hollywood Beach, Florida.

  • Passport to Freedom | Dr. Nizam Missaghi
    Oct 1 2026
    This week Vance sat down with Dr. Nizam Missaghi who shared the remarkable story behind his new book, “Passport to Freedom: From Tehran to Triumph”.
    Nizam grew up in Tehran after the Iranian Revolution as a member of the Baha’i faith, where he faced religious discrimination and repeated obstacles to his education. At 18, unable to leave Iran legally, Nizam was smuggled across the mountains into Turkey — carrying an American passport that was literally his passport to freedom.
    In this fascinating conversation, Nizam shares his experience of growing up under the Islamic Republic, religious persecution after the Iranian Revolution, his dramatic escape from Iran, becoming a doctor in America, the various meanings of freedom, and his perspective on Iran today.
    His memoir, Passport to Freedom: From Tehran to Triumph, is available in print and audiobook at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and all other good booksellers.

    They discuss how they are using Artificial Intelligence, and how it will reshape work, the economy and ultimately human values.
    The couple also explain their “Techno-Puritan” religious framework, concerns about demographic decline, and their efforts to shift the Overton window on issues they believe will shape the future.
    The conversation also explores politics, culture, the “nerd right,” U.S. foreign policy and competing visions - with Vance challenging several of their more provocative ideas.

  • Montessori and the Independent Child | Kerry Moran
    Sep 17 2026

    This week Vance sits down with Montessori educator Kerry Moran of Kirkwood Children’s House in St. Louis. The pair share a wide-ranging conversation about how children learn, how independence develops, and what education may need to become in the age of AI.

    Kerry explains the philosophy behind the Montessori classroom — from hands-on materials and mixed-age groups to uninterrupted work periods, nature, observation and “freedom within limits.” She discusses why Montessori teachers act as guides rather than the center of the classroom, and how giving children meaningful responsibility can help develop problem-solving, self-control and confidence.
    This conversation explores the importance of attention and curiosity, why young children need physical experiences, and how parents can recognize a strong Montessori school.
