"Program or Be Programmed": Rushkoff's Digital Rules from On Point with Tom Ashbrook Podcast

We talk with big thinker Douglas Rushkoff about his "ten commands" for living right in the digital age. His new book is "Program or Be Programmed."

Listen to the full show here, and make sure to listen to the part about the car analogy. He's so on point with this book. It's all about "driving" versus being the passenger. And this is completely true. This is what our blog is about, in essence; it's about not being passive with the content that you're consuming. And to a large extent, you're seeing passivity reign through venues such as Facebook, even, where you simply just fall in line with certain things. You've got to check out the author's other books as well, super good reads: Life Inc.: How the World Became a Corporation and How to Take It Back, Coercion: Why We Listen to What "They" Say, Nothing Sacred: The Truth About Judaism,
