Here’s a scorching hot take: modern workplaces make it nearly impossible for employees to forge real connections. But according to third space culture expert Adam Tanaka, it’s not the connections themselves that are impossible – it’s the space where they’re (not) happening in.
So we took this episode into a wood-fired Finnish sauna pop-up on the Brooklyn waterfront to test his theory.
Topic Highlights:
– The power of physical space design to create real human connection
– The case for wellness as infrastructure, not luxury
– What the "dinner party rule of six" tells us about why most meetings and offsites fail
– The analog advantage: why real human experience offers an exponential premium in an AI-saturated world
