Duality of Symbiosis & Technology Ethics
What is the true definition of Symbiosis? In this riveting episode of Positively Pedestrian, Kris Tyte and Sean Snodgrass brilliantly address this question: How is humanity actually defined? Not only do they do an in-depth exploration of this topic, but add their own unique perspectives and takes on this topic, such as building a moral code in regards to what will benefit humans the most. Join us for laughs, intellectual discussions, and what it means to be a technology philanthropist.

Wired for Life - Natures Secret Code
In this wandering-yet-profound episode, the hosts explore the interconnectedness of life-natural and artificial-through stories about pollen, memes, IT nerds, elephants, strip mall economies, and gut bacteria. What starts as a walk through muffler-laced streets quickly dives into deep symbiosis: how trees may chemically communicate, how gut flora shapes our identity and choices, and how memes might be distracting us from climate collapse. Along the way, we meet the "Gigachad of IT nerds", examine fecal transplants, explore breast milk vs. formula, and ask if free will is just another chemical illusion. It's science, sarcasm, and social philosophy, all tangled up in data-both digital and biological.

Symbiosis - Humanity, Technology & the Web of Life
