Mills reputation as a master of the long-form audio documentary was further solidified through his lead production role on Caliphate, a groundbreaking series that took listeners into the haunting inner workings of ISIS.

Currently, Mills is the creative force behind The Last Invention, a high-profile series for Apple Podcasts that investigates the existential trajectory of Artificial Intelligence. In this project, he pivots his lens toward the “godfathers” of AI and the skeptics who fear we are witnessing a self-sustaining technological snowball effect. By questioning whether AI represents humanity’s ultimate achievement or its final mistake, Mills continues to occupy the intersection of philosophy and breaking news. His work on The Last Invention serves as a sonic deep dive into the accelerating momentum of the future, delivered with the same curiosity and technical precision that has made him one of the most influential voices in the “Golden Age” of podcasting.

He is the founder and CEO of the Income To Support All Foundation, host of the Basic Income Show, author of Let There Be Money, and also serves on the board of directors of the Gerald Huff Fund for Humanity. His home is in Washington, D.C. where he moved to from New Orleans in 2022.

He is a researcher, writer, and advocate for Universal Basic Income; the cofounder of the U.S. Basic Income Guarantee Network; cofounder the academic journal Basic Income Studies; and former co-chair of the Basic Income Earth Network.

He has published 11 books, including Universal Basic Income: Essential Knowledge (MIT Press) and The Prehistory of Private Property (Edinburgh University Press). He has appeared in many media outlets including The New York Times, The Guardian, and The Atlantic Monthly, which called him “a leader of the worldwide basic income movement.”
