With the new class structure resembling that of the Medieval times, freedom of choice around how to live and work is quickly disappearing for small business people, property owners, skilled workers and private sector professionals.

CHECK OUT THE TRAILER for the upcoming new podcast presented by Chapman University, where world renown author Joel Kotkin and tech entrepreneur Marshall Toplansky are exploring what it takes to liberate the global middle class -- sitting down with business, government and citizen leaders to uncover the trends and share insights and tools to forge a better future.

Subscribe to the show on Apple & Stitcher (Spotify coming soon), and on YouTube for show video clips and highlights. Show notes will be available at joelkotkin.com/feudal-future-podcast.
