Is The World F*cked?
Welcome to "Is The World F*cked?" - a weekly raw and irreverent look at the future... starting today! We look at where the world's going in technology, economics, social policies and lots of other crazy sh*t!
We get real about where we could be going if we got our act together, what scares the hell out of us, and what makes our heads spin.
Your hosts are Dr Bruce McCabe, The Global Futurist, and Bruce's mate, "PJ" Jones, one of the original digital marketers in this world. We kick around the big issues everyone's thinking about but might hesitate to raise in polite company, while keeping it real and having some fun. Because, without the laughs, what's the point? And then we try to decide in the end, is the world f*cked, or not?
You can check out our "day jobs" at www.brucemccabe.com and www.alexim.com.au respectively, although this podcast was never meant for our clients (we're scared to death they'll find it). This podcast is for YOU - if you're thinking about the big stuff - and whether the world is f*cked, or not!

#42 - Do BMW Drivers Share Their Bananas?
In this episode, we tackle the deepest of questions: "Are all BMW drivers assholes?” and needless to say, it’s all downhill from there!
After performing an irreverent dissection of driver behaviour and car brands with sordid marketing campaigns, the banter takes a surprising turn regarding wealth, privilege, and entitlement before unveiling a genuine university study aimed at answering the burning question, "Are BMW drivers assholes?"
We then investigate what a Mr/Ms LOMBARD is and which industry takes that term very seriously, before finding out what all of this has to do with bananas.
Tune in for the answers, but be warned—laughter is the main ingredient! And when the laughter subsides, why not spread the joy? We'd love you to share the episode, the ultimate Christmas gift, with your friends. It's free, and you'll know who to send it to first, based on the car they drive!
