Bill Gates is a busy man. The Microsoft co-founder has a Netflix docuseries that will be dropping this month. In it, he’ll explore some of the most pressing issues that are facing humanity, from AI to income inequality. Guests include artists and leaders, including Lady Gaga and Anthony Fauci, and young people who want to enact some change in the world, like his daughter Phoebe Gates.

“What’s Next? The Future with Bill Gates” shines a light on the uncertainties of the future, Gates remains hopeful, introducing his daughter as a part of one of the next generation’s problem-solvers.

“It’s fun to see her energy,” said Gates of his 21-year-old daughter who recently graduated from Stanford University.

He revealed that while shooting the episode, Phoebe brought some bubble tea for him to try. “It has a strange texture that drinks are not supposed to have,” he said. “So she may keep trying on that because she’s a big fan. I don’t know.”

“What’s Next? The Future with Bill Gates” is a five-episode series built around Gates’ desire to learn and understand the world, something that has defined his life and achievements. “Whether at school, Microsoft, or now, as a philanthropist, I consider myself a student,” said Gates to TUDUM.
