Benjamin Crockett is the Director of Content at Longbeard and host of the Catholic Futurist Podcast. In his conversations, he bridges the world of tomorrow with the moral and intellectual heritage of the Catholic faith.

A California native, Benjamin holds an undergraduate degree from the University of California, Berkeley. His intellectual curiosity led him to study philosophy at Harvard Divinity School, concentrating on the ethical implications of emerging technologies and participating in the inaugural virtual reality course at MIT.

His interest in technology and the Vatican's moral voice led him to Rome, where he introduced virtual reality to the EWTN Vatican Bureau and covered the Vatican. He currently lives in the Eternal City with his family, exploring the intersection of humanity and machines in pursuit of human flourishing.
