This is a show about the moments that change us, fundamentally and forever. Each week, host Stephanie Wittels Wachs (Lemonada’s co-founder and award-winning queen of darkness and light) is sitting down with a new guest to explore happy/sad stories of survival, resilience and transformation. After three seasons of exploring the "last day" of people’s lives in an effort to understand mass epidemics, Steph was ready for a change herself. Some “last days” are hopeful. Some are tragic. But at the heart of every “last day” is also a new beginning. Laugh/cry with us.
Any day could be the last. It's a harsh reality of life driven home by the tragic nature of the 24/7 news cycle. Last Day is a podcast that confronts these painful realizations.
While undeniably difficult, certain subjects demand open, honest conversation. Understanding the problem is crucial to finding the best path forward. Last Day takes a unique approach to finding that understanding.
Each season addresses a pressing concern in modern society. The approach on Last Day is gentle yet earnest. It gives the subject matter respect while examining every nuance.
Equal parts witty and critical, Last Day faces the tough conversations head-on. Stephanie Wittels Wachs guides the conversation and interviews with grace. The result is a deeper comprehension of complex issues. Through genuine conversation and human connection, perspectives shift, and understanding flourishes.
When humanity discovers new threats each day, it's essential to stay informed. Headlines aren't enough. People must go beyond the superficial and carefully examine the issues.
Listeners tune in for first-hand stories from those closest to pressing problems. Stephanie and her guests discuss how to make progress and uncover potential solutions to society's existential challenges. Last Day is a staple for any podcast playlist concerned with the state of the modern world.
