Michael Evans is our guest today on TSP. He is the author of post apocalyptic thrillers that combine near future technology scenarios gone wrong with flawed, captivating characters facing extraordinary odds in order to survive and fight for the future of humanity. He is the author of a dozen published novels and is a creative entrepreneur, speaker, and futurist committed to using the power of story to propel the world to a better future. His most recent series, World Gone Mad (A Post Apocalyptic EMP Survival Series), explores what happens when wealth inequality and automation collide to create an apocalypse designed to destroy humanity, and one man’s mission of survival and redemption in a world gone mad.
He is 18 years old and will be attending Harvard University in the fall of 2020. He enjoys exploring abandoned buildings, going for long runs to dream up new story ideas, and reading about future technologies, political systems, and survival techniques. He has spent most of his life dodging conventional dogma whether that be graduating high school a year early to take a gap year to write and publish books from his room, investing tens of thousands of dollars out of pocket from part-time work to build his business from scratch, and foregoing four years of foreign language that traditional education systems have mandated to learn about technology while still managing to get into the world’s most elite university.
He resides in Charleston, South Carolina, with his fluffy golden doodle but is originally from Long Island, New York. To find out more about him or his work you are welcome to visit here: mevansinked.com.

An awesome young man right there. That is what I want for my kids as they grow up… that drive and a sense of purpose. Or at least a strong internal drive towards exploring and finding that purpose, whatever it ends up being. It took me a long time to get those qualities “back to normal” after my school experience subdued much of it, but by then my teens and half of my 20’s were over. I’d rather not have a shitty school experience waste their time during (and after) their school years.
Was going to skip this episode, glad I didn’t. This is a bright young man and I enjoyed the interview. Jack, you challenged him where maybe he was naive. (heck, he’s 18) I thought your discussion on the usefulness of Apocalyptic Fiction was good, my wife (who does not like End of the World books) read One Second After. The thing that she remembered was having to eat the dogs. Yeah, more than a weeks worth of cat food seems like a good idea. More canned food for us; yeah , not so crazy.
