Leo "Bud" Welch began his recording career at age 81. A Mississippi native who spent 30 years as a lumberjack, he embodies the sound of the working class bluesman, a craft he's gracefully been maturing since the young age of 15 when he first picked up a guitar. We talk about perseverance, hard work, and the way songs move.

Mike Foster is the founder and Chief Chance Officer of People of the Second Chance, a nonprofit organization championing not-so-perfect people. We talk about shame, the Muppets, and what to do with a purpose that won't let go of you.

Shauna Niequist is the author of The New York Times Bestseller, Present Over Perfect, as well as Bread & Wine, Bittersweet, and Cold Tangerines. We talk about the struggle to stay present in a culture that demands perfection.

CJ sits down with storyteller, curator, and illusionist, Harris III, to discuss how stories restore order, why imagination can cause worry, and Harris' latest endeavor, Story Gathering, a place where the senses and soul collide.

Krista Tippett is a Peabody Award-winning broadcaster and New York Times bestselling author. In 2014, she received the National Humanities Medal at the White House. She is the host & executive producer of "On Being," a social enterprise with a radio show at its heart. We talk about why following your dream may not be the most important thing, why movements are local & particular, and why her latest book, "Becoming Wise" is striking a chord with a generation.
