About this listen

 Learn to connect better with others in every area of your life. Immerse yourself in spirited conversations with people who know how hard it is, and yet how good it feels, to really connect with other people – whether it’s one person, an audience or a whole country. You'll know many of the people in these conversations – they are luminaries in our culture. Some you may not know. But what links them all is their powerful ability to relate and communicate. It's something we need now more than ever.Alan Alda Science Social Sciences

Listening to these intimate conversations between smart, evolved, thoughtful and interesting people never gets old. Or at this point, even optional in my life - that’s how much I get out of this podcast. All of them unique in every way too! Thank you for the inspiration, the motivation, and most of all - at times even restoring my faith in human kind.

Seriously do yourself a favor, listen to ALL!

I could have listened to this for another 12 hours. It was just a lovely homecoming at the end the there was a disappointment and a longing to give each of them a hug of thanks.

Guest selection is refreshing. Topics are varied yet Hollywood is pleasantly avoided. I never miss an episode, regardless of the topic.
