Two-time Oscar winner and nine-time nominee Nancy Haigh joins us to explore the art of noticing.
As a production designer, art director, and set decorator, her work has shaped iconic films like The Truman Show, Forrest Gump, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, No Country for Old Men, Moneyball, and Big Fish—not to mention one of my all-time favorites, Barton Fink.
Beyond her incredible filmography, Nancy is kind, insightful, and a lot of fun.

Author Kurt Vonnegut is our guru today, a man who truly believed humanity was one big cosmic joke. We study both his fiction and his personal life to figure out how someone who has seen so much horror can still have faith in humanity and find meaning.

My guest today is David McMahon - a naturalist and adventurer who has spent his life exploring the world's most remote ecosystems.
David has travelled the globe, coming face to face with some of the most dangerous species on the planet, learning from survival techniques from local and indigenous communities. In our conversation, David said he could be happy anywhere in the world. He knows the secret to fulfilment. I think we can all learn a lot from him.
