    A 93-Year-Old Shares Secrets to a Creative Life

    What can a 93-year-old teach us about life, creativity, and happiness? Mandy Patinkin and Kathryn Grody sit down with a 93-year-old artist to talk about aging, staying creative, and finding joy at every stage of life. They also answer a listener question about how to raise hopeful kids in difficult times, and a game of Would You Rather? takes an unexpected (and hilarious) turn.
