1KHO 856: The Opposite of AI Slop | Malcolm Guite, Galahad and the Grail

English poet, singer-songwriter, Anglican priest, academic, YouTube sensation, and bestselling author Malcolm Guite joins us today! In this episode we explore why stories, poetry, imagination, and childhood wonder matter more than ever in an age of algorithms and artificial intelligence. From climbing trees with a wooden sword to reading great books aloud as a family, Malcolm makes a compelling case that the things shaping our humanity are the very things technology can never replace. This episode is an invitation to recover beauty, rediscover the classics, and remember that the richest life is still lived with real people in the real world.
