Are we ready for a driverless world? | Corey Clothier
Devin speaks with Corey Clothier, a longtime leader in autonomous vehicles. Corey is the co-founder and CEO of ARIBO Autonomous Solutions, where he helps government agencies and private companies deploy autonomous tech in the real world. In this episode, Corey and Devin talk about autonomy as a shift in how systems work. Good design considers not just what machines can do, but also how they fit into the complex realities of human life. The two explore what that looks like when the human element is a family on vacation, an airport manager struggling to hire staff, and a wounded veteran looking for care. Longtime listeners take note: autonomous lawnmowers make another appearance.1:34 Fort Bragg's wounded warrior problem2:23 Convincing a two-star general6:30 Most useful robot for Marines? 8:53 Vegas says yes to robot shuttles12:01 "There's no steering wheel!"13:12 From Johnny Cab to real autonomy16:35 The curb space conundrum17:38 Difference makers: the people in charge18:21 Michigan leading by example20:32 Evil robots and American pop culture21:18 Painted forklifts23:06 Autonomous lawnmowersLinksDevin Liddell on LinkedInCorey Clothier on LinkedInTeagueAbout the Host: Futurist Devin LiddellDevin Liddell is the Principal Futurist at Teague.

When design enters the battlefield | Robert Walker
Devin speaks with Robert Walker, a senior design leader who recently transitioned from a two-decade career in automotive design into the world of defense. He previously led design for some of Ford and GM’s most iconic vehicles. Now, he’s applying that experience to the radically different challenge of designing tactical vehicles for military use. It’s a dramatic shift – one that raises big questions about how design adapts when the stakes are high. 1:47 Welcome to the defense industry 4:01 The designer's ”curse”5:13 Humvees and backup cameras8:44 Success redefined – getting soldiers home11:38 Humans vs machines on the battlefield13:13 Leading both design and engineering teams15:18 Prototyping: build first, get permission later 17:49 Lightening RoundLinksDevin Liddell on LinkedInRobert Walker on LinkedInTeagueAbout the Host: Futurist Devin LiddellDevin Liddell is the Principal Futurist at Teague.

At Anduril, design is a sign of respect | Jen Bucci
Devin speaks with Jen Bucci, VP of Design at Anduril Industries, a defense company specializing in autonomous technology. Jen leads a hands-on creative team that covers everything from industrial and graphic design to film and photography.Jen shares how her love for James Bond films shaped her approach to design, how branding ties into accountability, and why designing for defense means developing a clear, cohesive design language that touches everything from hardware to typography. It’s a strikingly modern approach in an industry where user experience is often overlooked. Plus, Jen tips her hat to Virgil Abloh — because sometimes the label is the design.1:22 When missiles get the anime treatment5:18 Designing for the 18-year-old warfighter7:26 Virgil Abloh and the art of labeling everything11:02 If your brand color is blue…14:35 Function as features: design under constraints16:42 Respect for the user in high-stakes design17:49 Hard questions: ethics and transparency20:33 Inspiration from Minority Report to Cyberpunk22:35 Lightning roundLinksDevin Liddell on LinkedInJen Bucci on LinkedInTeagueAbout the Host: Futurist Devin LiddellDevin Liddell is the Principal Futurist at Teague.

Building the world’s largest aircraft | Bruno Bachinger
Devin speaks with Bruno Bachinger, Chief Engineer at Radia. Radia is building the world's largest aircraft. This airplane will be ten times bigger than a commercial jetliner, with a cargo capacity that pushes what we think is possible in flight. Bruno brings decades of aerospace experience to the table, including more than twenty years at Boeing. In this episode, Bruno explains how prioritizing heavy-lift logistics could open up possibilities for renewable energy, defense, space, and humanitarian work.

What it takes to make a car feel magical | Eric Wood
Devin speaks with Eric Wood, Senior VP of Product Experience at 42dot, a subsidiary of Hyundai. He's also the former head of design at Rivian. Eric has been at the forefront of using software to transform the automotive world – not just in how cars are built, but in how we experience them. In this conversation, we explore what happens when you stop designing cars around horsepower and steel and start designing them as programmable machines instead. We also dig into the global competition shaping the future of cars and the rare moment when science fiction actually gets it right.02:01 Camp Mode: origin story04:41 Rethinking power and unlocking new features07:24 Software vs. hardware: the changing nature of cars11:07 Nostalgia and the evolution of car experiences12:33 Designing features out of existence15:57 Global competition and iterative speed22:25 Lightening roundLinksDevin Liddell on LinkedInEric Wood on LinkedInTeagueAbout the Host: Futurist Devin LiddellDevin Liddell is the Principal Futurist at Teague.

How to build a bionic hand | Aadeel Akhtar
Devin speaks with Aadeel Akhtar, CEO and co-founder of Psyonic, a company designing advanced bionic limbs for both humans and robots. What started in academia has grown into a startup pushing the boundaries of human-machine synergy – including applications as ambitious as outer space. Devin and Aadeel talk about how PSYONIC’s work with EMG technology and direct nerve integration is reshaping what prosthetics can do, why Aadeel will always build for humans and robots, and – why future AI androids will be plenty smart, just not in a C-3PO kind of way.1:52 Aadeel’s journey to bionic hand innovation2:36 Serendipity in Ecuador6:39 From academia to startup: founding PSYONIC9:00 EMG technology10:57 Direct nerve integration12:32 Human - robot synergy14:09 Bionic hands in space 18:26 Lightening roundLinksDevin Liddell on LinkedInAadeel Akhtar on LinkedInTeagueAbout the Host: Futurist Devin LiddellDevin Liddell is the Principal Futurist at Teague.
