About this episode

The episode discusses the rise of data centres and the community's response to the AI infrastructure boom.

Data centres are popping up in backyards, town halls are erupting, and a new kind of populism may be quietly forming—one that cuts across left and right in ways we haven't seen since 2016. Mark, Liddy, and Daniel explore what the AI infrastructure boom actually looks like on the ground, why ordinary people are pushing back, and what the church's response to an increasingly extractive world might simply be: showing up, staying local, and getting on with it where you are.➡️ For subscriber chats and resources, head to ⁠rebuilders.co⁠
