Who doesn't need a miracle? As the lyricist for many timeless Grateful Dead classics, as a privacy rights activist, or as the founder of the biofuel company Algae Systems, John Perry Barlow has used creativity and sheer will to advance a wide array of "miracles." That is until a devastating illness left him hospitalized for most of 2015. Host Alex Wise sat down recently with Barlow, who's still on the mend, along with the CEO of Algae Systems, Matthew Atwood. They discuss the company's technology which turns waste water into fuel, and the current Indiegogo campaign to raise new capital for Algae Systems. They also delve into Barlow's relationship with Edward Snowden, his recovery from this illness, and the unfortunate tale of how he missed out on the Grateful Dead's "Fare Thee Well" mini-tour.
