  • A Space to Remember / Michael Arad

    A Space to Remember / Michael Arad
    May 27 2019
    We humans remember things on a uniquely grand scale. From the pyramids to the Washington Monument, we build memorials so we won't forget our past. Today, I try to understand why with Michael Arad, the visionary architect behind the 9/11 Memorial at Ground Zero, in New York City. When an act of terrorism changed the world forever, how could we do justice to physical and emotional destruction that occurred? Michael answered that question the only way he knew: by creating a memory space. Join me for this powerful conversation about history, truth, healing and how the spaces we live in and pass through can change our story, both personal and global.

  • God versus Aliens / Leonord Mlodinow

    God versus Aliens / Leonord Mlodinow
    May 20 2019
    Is there more evidence for God or for aliens? Can true reality be described by science or will it always remain a mystery? Are there limits to our imagination? These are some of the questions I debate with Leonard Mlodinow . Not only has he co-authored books with Stephen Hawking, he's also written for Star Trek, which make his perspectives among the most unique I've encountered. But we don't always agree. And over the years that has turned us into close friends, as well as collaborators. As a man with many layers, our journey today is sure to expand your mind, as it has mine.

    Sex is Complicated / Dan Savage
    May 13 2019
    Sex is powerful, and no one knows that better than "sexpert", writer, podcast host and relationship extraordinaire, Dan Savage. In his decades of experience, Dan's seen a lot, and he's paving a unique and profound new path redefining what it means to love and to be in a relationship, or rather, to be in many relationships. Is the human species meant to love one person? Or is love provisional like our identity? Join me as we paint new colors on a very old practice.

  • You Are Not Your Brain / Rebecca Gladding, MD

    You Are Not Your Brain / Rebecca Gladding, MD
    May 6 2019
    Who are you? If you've ever stopped to ask yourself this question, a myriad of adjectives have likely swirled around your...brain. But, is that really you? My guest today, psychiatrist and author Rebecca Gladding, MD, says, not necessarily. In fact, you may be working from a set of deceptive and tenacious, maybe even false, narratives in your brain. So join me to investigate how our identity is shaped and by whom —or what. And most importantly, how to reimagine the very idea of who you think you are.
