Wild will be taking a pause for a few weeks over the summer period and we’ll be running a bunch of my favourite episodes that you might have missed along the way.
I know a bunch of you have watched the Netflix series Blue Zones and some of you know that I worked on the project briefly and became friends with the National Geographic explorer - Dan Buettner who coined the term, wrote the book and started in the series. We actually caught up for dinner in Paris recently - we try to find each other in the world when we can to talk not so much about longevity, but how to max a life, short or long. I hope you enjoy this one...OH and if listening on a road trip heading off on Christmas holidays or some such and ur in the passenger seat…please do take a minute to rate Wild, give it a review share it amongst your friends. It helps out a lot.
