Hosted by comedy writer Nate Dern, each episode interviews someone trying something new. It's dedicated to all of those who get outside of their comfort zone and try something different, learn a skill, or just experience something new. The topics range from the silly (eating a ghost pepper or learning to roller skate) to the serious (saving endangered wolves or changing how elections work). Nate is a comedy writer and a sociologist, so each episode tries to make you laugh and hopefully make you learn something, too. Nate writes for The Tonight Show and is the author of the book "Not Quite a Genius." Whatever it is you're trying to do, I hope you keep on trying.

Will Hines is an improv teacher and actor who lives in Los Angeles, and this past year he has been trying to finish a series of video games to 100 percent completion, including the cowboy survival story of Red Dead Redemption 2. We talk about the addictive quality of video games, how time just seems to disappear while playing, and yet how moving and immersive of an experience they can provide. For more Will Hines, check out one of his podcasts, like "I Will Write Your Book" or "Screw It, We're Just Going To Talk About Comics."
