Today on a special in-person recording of Bankless we welcome special guest and best selling author, Yuval Noah Harari. Yuval is best known for his book Sapiens, and today, he is introducing ideas from his next book Nexus. 

We go deep down the history rabbit hole and explore the question, if human beings are so wise, why are we so self destructive?
