Best of TGS: What Would You Do With a Magic Wand?

This year on The Great Simplification, we heard from 54 guests, 18 Reality Roundtable panelists, and Nate shared his thoughts across 31 Frankly episodes. But even after releasing 300+ hours of conversations and reflections since this show began, we are only just beginning to connect all the moving parts that make up The Human Predicament.

As 2025 approaches, we invite you to reflect on this compilation of answers to a question that Nate asks every guest: "If you could wave a magic wand – and there was no personal recourse to your decision, what is one thing you would do to improve human and planetary futures?" 

While some of these answers would truly take magic to achieve, and others involve actions that we have the power to enact on the individual level and within the communities around us right now, we hope you feel motivated and inspired by the magical thinking of these experts to wave a wand wherever you find yourself in the unfolding story of The Great Simplification.

Thank you so much for your continuing support, and for caring so deeply about the topics of this show.

So, what would you do with a magic wand?
