  • Peter Kowey, MD, on Healthcare's Real Crisis
    1 Nov 2026

    Why do so many people feel lost in today's healthcare system—even with all the incredible advances in modern medicine? In this episode, I welcome renowned cardiologist Dr. Peter Kowey to discuss his eye-opening book, Failure to Treat. Together we explore why communication between doctors and patients so often falls short, how fragmented care and misaligned incentives can affect treatment decisions, and what we can all do to become better advocates for our own health. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, Dr. Kowey offers candid insights, practical advice, and a hopeful vision for a healthcare system that puts people—not just diseases—at the center of care. Whether you're a healthcare professional, patient, caregiver, or simply curious about the future of medicine, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and leave you better equipped to navigate your own healthcare journey.

  • Why Cars Matter: Greg Stanley on Automotive Culture and Collecting
    1 Oct 2026

    Why do cars matter? In this episode of Living a Life in Full, Greg Stanley—collector car specialist, Ferrari judge, host of The Collector Car Podcast, and author of The Enthusiast's Guide To Collector Cars—joins the conversation to explore why automobiles are far more than machines. From Enzo-era Ferraris and first-generation Mustangs to Shelbys, survivor cars, resto-mods, and modern hypercars, Greg explains how cars become rolling works of art, cultural time capsules, and emotional vessels that connect us to history, family, identity, and place.

    Greg brings more than 25 years of market insight and historical expertise to a wide-ranging discussion about what makes a collector car meaningful, valuable, and unforgettable. He shares insights from judging at major events, working on record-setting sales—including the 1962 Ferrari 330 LM / 250 GTO sold for $51.7 million—and helping enthusiasts understand provenance, documentation, auctions, restoration choices, clubs, valuation, and stewardship.

    At its heart, this conversation is about curiosity, craft, memory, and meaning. Greg helps make the collector-car world accessible to newcomers while reminding seasoned enthusiasts that the best cars are not just owned—they are held, understood, preserved, and passed along. Whether you love concours Ferraris, muscle cars, JDM, barn finds, or simply asking "what's the story?" this episode offers a thoughtful look at why cars move us in more ways than one.

  • Jamie Metzl on the Paradox of Using AI to Build a More Human Future
    1 Sep 2026

    In this episode, I sit down with futurist, author, and policy expert Jamie Metzl, PhD, JD, to explore one of the defining questions of our time: how can we use artificial intelligence to build a future that is not less human, but more so? Our conversation moves beyond simplistic visions of AI as either salvation or catastrophe and instead asks what these technologies reveal about our values, judgment, and moral seriousness.

    Jamie is the author of The AI Ten Commandments: A New Moral Code for Humanity and a leading voice on the intersection of AI, genetics, biotechnology, and geopolitics—argues that AI should be understood not as artificial human intelligence, but as a powerful alternate intelligence that can serve as a moral copilot when guided by human wisdom. Together, we examine how AI can amplify both our strengths and our flaws, and why dignity, accountability, and ethical depth must remain at the center of innovation.

    This is a thoughtful, timely conversation about civilization, character, and the future we are willing to create. Whether you are excited about AI's promise or wary of its risks, this episode offers a nuanced framework for thinking about technology, responsibility, and what it means to live fully in an age of accelerating change.
