In this episode of Event Horizon, John Michael Godier speaks with John Gertz, philanthropist, author, and longtime SETI supporter, about his new book Reinventing SETI. Gertz argues that the traditional search for extraterrestrial intelligence must evolve, offering new strategies for detecting technosignatures, interstellar probes, and communication across the stars. From rethinking the so-called “Fermi Paradox” to exploring white dwarfs as prime SETI targets, he presents bold ideas that challenge
