Each week Joss Stone speaks to a host of guests from deep thinkers, to cultural figures - in an effort to find some answers. Expect outlandish theories, occasional disagreements and a whole lot of laughs.

Robert Waldinger - Lessons From A Zen Priest & The World’s Longest Running Study Of Adult Life
The Harvard Study of Adult Development is one of the longest running studies of adult life the world has ever seen. In this episode, the study’s director, Professor Robert Waldinger, explains to Joss how it has enabled researchers to track the lives of 724 men - including one former President - since 1938. After sharing some of the study’s findings, Robert explains how he came to be a Zen priest, and just what this entails.
