Have you ever realized that every person, no matter what they do in life or who they are, has at least ONE story that was so ridiculous, so unbelievable, so extraordinary...that it can't possibly be true? But they ARE. Every person has an interesting story to tell and some of those stories even evolve into life work for some of our guests, charting their future before they even knew it. Cassandra Young and Munir Meghjani uncover these stories while highlighting important perspectives, ideas that challenge our everyday thinking and stories - that in the end - make you sit back and think.
