Mitch Albom joins Tim Green to revisit the guilt that brought him back to Morrie Schwartz, the dying ALS professor whose joy exposed the emptiness of Mitch’s own success. Their conversation moves through ambition, regret, faith, grief, and the lesson that giving can make us feel alive when achievement is not enough.

In Part 2 of our conversation with Alison Armstrong, we explore why many relationships fail long before people admit it, how resentment and misunderstanding quietly destroy connection, and why Alison believes relationships are “bad investments” when people stop paying attention to each other in the present. The conversation dives into masculinity, competition, happiness, faith, communication, and the hidden dynamics between men and women that shape whether a relationship becomes a partnership or a constant battle.

Dr. Tommy Wood is a neuroscientist and physician focused on brain injury and long term cognitive health. This conversation challenges common assumptions about how the brain works and what actually improves it.
He explains why many treatments that succeed in lab models fail in humans, and why outcomes are driven more by environment and behavior than single interventions.
A central idea is that the brain needs both stress and recovery. Constant stimulation without rest creates a state similar to overtraining, limiting performance and adaptation.
They also examine the tradeoff between optimizing health metrics and living well, and why most benefits come from simple foundations rather than extreme routines.
