About this listen

A quiet shift is coming. "This Might Actually Work" is a blunt, clear-eyed breakdown of global solutions—from food banks to fiber optics, from desalinization plants to mobile classrooms. It’s not theory. It’s not utopia. It’s the literal receipt for what it would cost to solve the biggest problems humanity faces… and how little it would take.

Written in the voice of someone who wandered into the control room by accident and decided to hit “optimize,” this book doesn’t preach—it points. It runs the numbers. It invites you to see for yourself. What if poverty is a design flaw? What if awakening is just logistics? What if this really might… work? From the author of "I Brought Receipts," this book builds the timeline where we get it right.
