In this extraordinary episode of CRAVE, we are honored to welcome physicist and engineer Federico Faggin—the legendary inventor of the microprocessor and touchscreen—for a powerful conversation that bridges technology, consciousness, and spirituality.
Hosted by Samantha Ferro, the episode opens with a special tribute and video message from Iacopo Gori, our Milan correspondent from Corriere della Sera.
Together, we explore key themes from Faggin’s book Oltre l’invisibile, including:
His personal spiritual awakening
The nature of consciousness beyond the brain
Why science must embrace spirituality
Why AI can never replace human consciousness
The concept of “Seità” — the essence of being
And the transformative force of love

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life.
