Last day is a show about the moments that change us. I just don't think I will ever get used to this. I'm Stephanie Whittleswax, and I have had one of these moments. We all have. So let's unpack the chaos that is our human existence together.

I don't believe things happen for a reason. I don't believe the universe has a plan. Each week I sit down with a new guest to explore happy, sad stories of transformation. It's leaning far. Far into the pain.

That's what it is. Listen to last day wherever you get your podcasts. Pushkin. Many years ago, I was on the board of a think tank called the Rand Corporation out in Los Angeles. It was one of the coolest things I've ever done.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is $1.
