18:00Event start time
SundayAugust 30, 2026
“The broligarchy gets its day in court. Andrew Maxwell hosts CNN's Donie O'Sullivan, disinformation expert Mark Little and economist Eric Lonergan on populism, platforms and the billionaires treating the state like a startup to be disrupted. The weekend's closing Leviathan panel, and probably its loudest.”
This event is part of Leviathan Stage
MindField's public forum, where the weekend's most insightful conversations happen out in the open. Andrew Maxwell hosts the big panels — on America at 250, populism and the broligarchy — while ambassadors, journalists and campaigners take on Europe, Gaza, Amnesty and the housing crisis in between. Mornings open gently with Salon du Chat and the Human Library, where the books are people and the borrowing is a conversation. Come to listen, stay to disagree.
