Hello everybody, welcome back to the show. My guest today is Steven Shaw, he's a data scientist

and a filmmaker. Over the last seven years, Steven has visited 24 countries and analysed millions

of pieces of data to work out what is happening with global birth rates and predict the Earth's

future population. The answer is shocking and literally every person needs to be aware of it.

I expect to learn how 70% of countries on Earth are below the population tipping point. What the

cause of such rapidly changing birth rates can be attributed to why women seem to find motherhood

hormonal birth control or environmentalism is to blame, and much more.

This is a very, very important conversation. Steven's platform is nowhere near as big as it should be.

The documentary that we're discussing today has 5,000 plays on YouTube, even though it was nominated

for a bunch of awards. I am so happy to have got him at this stage of his career, where I think

maybe even take some notes for this because it really does change a lot about how we view the future.

If you think that living on a world where there are too many people is a bad situation,

wait until you're living on one where there are too few. It's not all doom and gloom. There are

glimmers of hope in the future, but we do need to do something about this. And it is, I guess,

one of the most important conversations that I think almost nobody is having right now. So I get

ready for this one. In other news, this episode is brought to you by Jim Shark. They've just released

their brand new Rest Day collection, which is for both men and women. And it's awesome. If you are

off training for the day and you want to lounge about or you're traveling somewhere, you're going

on a plane. This stuff is just phenomenal. Premium quality fabrics, amazing fits, super comfortable,
