She offers up the latest proven research that shows how small movements are so important to health, longevity and your overall level of fitness. And she explains easy ways to do it. Juliet is co-author of the book Built To Move (https://amzn.to/3ZwADHH) and her podcast is The Ready State (https://thereadystate.com/podcasts/).

He joins me to take a peek into the fascinating world of invention and engineering to see how the things you use every day to make your life better, came to be. His book is titled The Things We Make: The Unknown History of Invention from Cathedrals to Soda Cans (https://amzn.to/3zhGpm3).
