Working Until We Drop? Aging, Labor, and the Future of Pensions

In a world where lifespans are rising and pension systems are creaking, are we all destined to work into our 70s — or beyond? This episode dives deep into the changing nature of retirement, the politics of aging, and the hidden costs of demographic shifts. From Germany’s push for “active retirees” to the global scramble to patch social safety nets, we ask: Is the future of retirement a soft landing or just another uphill climb? Featuring historical context, personal storytelling, and ideas from leading philosophers, this is a candid conversation about dignity, work, and what it means to grow old in a fast-moving world.
