Description

Silicon Valley supremo Peter Thiel has quite the CV, including co-founding PayPal, backing Facebook in its early days, links to Tesla, and co-founding Palantir Technologies. Lately, however, the billionaire has turned his attention to more apocalyptic fare as he delivers lectures around the world in which he warns that the Antichrist is among us. Why has Thiel gone down this route? And where do the likes of Greta Thunberg and Bill Gates fit in? Host: Adrian Weckler Guest: Massimo Faggioli This episode comes from our sister podcast The Big Tech ShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
