Boldly going where no podcast has gone before: William Shatner; Wonder, Awe, and Questions, Questions...

I first met William Shatner a little over 19 years ago when we were filming a TV inspired in part on my book, The Physics of Star Trek. The show was ultimately titled, How William Shatner Changed the World. I am not sure what I expected when I met Bill, but what I got was something completely different. After a brief period during which I felt a bit like I was being auditioned, and which I passed after we filmed a scene in which I was required to use a teleprompter to spout a long series of Star Trek technobabble, we settled in to begin to discuss the world, and I fell a bit in love. Bill reminded me in many ways of my Uncle, who had long been my favorite relative, and the patriarch of our rather small family. His humor, his confidence, his energy, and his curiosity emerged from the crumbling armor he had originally amassed to potentially protect from him what he may have expected to be a pestering nerd. (And which, for all I know, I may have been). As the days wore on (I think we spent 3-4 together in total), we began to talk about science and the world, and I was impressed not just with Bill’s intense curiosity and enthusiasm, but his native intelligence. Once again, I guess I had not been prepared for that. A decade later, and perhaps seven or eight years ago, we spent a week on a Star Trek Cruise together. He of course was the headliner, and I gave some science lectures, and ended up doing two programs on stage with him—one on the program, and one more impromptu. While perhaps billed as a dialogue, the provided an opportunity for Bill to pepper me with questions about all things physics, trade jokes, and overall have a blast. I suspect that is the norm. He invests everything he gets involved in with the same joy, and charm. So, I was over the moon, when after discussing the possibility of doing The Origins Podcast for over 2 years, Bill finally, in a weak moment, I assume, agreed. It took about 30 seconds for the same sense of fun and joy to take over, a deep friendliness to be transparent, and for Bill to basically take over. From there, I held on to my chair and just tried to enjoy the wild ride. It was fun, and informative. I had 5 pages of questions to ask him, and I managed to sneak in about 3 or 4 questions. Instead the conversation went wherever it went—most often to questions about the Universe—and it was one of the most enjoyable 90 minutes I have spent in awhile. It also gave me a chance to reconnect with Bill, and I don’t plan to wait another decade before doing it again. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did.

William Shatner’s Enduring Love for Planet Earth

The actor’s flight into space in 2021 left him with an urgent desire to make us aware of the fragility of our home—a feeling that has yet to fade away. Media reports at the time, as well as Shatner’s own writing about his voyage with Blue Origin, focused on the grief he experienced looking into the blackness of space. But there was always much more to it. As part of an exploration into the power of awe for Outside, contributing editor Florence Williams spoke to Shatner, now 92, about how confronting forces larger than ourselves—be that beauty and wonder or horror and sadness—can be overwhelming yet ultimately transformative.

The Doctor Who Helped Save William Shatner’s Life

When William Shatner was diagnosed with stage four melanoma, he turned to Dr. Omid Hamid, a leading oncologist and pioneer in cancer immunotherapy. Today, William is in remission, thanks to treatments transforming the outlook for patients with advanced cancer. On this episode of NO TIME BUT NOW, Dr. Hamid joins William and his daughter, Melanie Shatner Gretsch, for a personal conversation about the breakthroughs changing cancer treatment and the future of immunotherapy. Drawing on their own experiences with stage four cancer, William and Melanie ask: Why do some patients survive against the odds? Can a positive attitude influence recovery? What role do genetics and lifestyle play? And what happens when cancer returns? From Keytruda to the next generation of cancer therapies, Dr. Hamid explains the science and promise of modern oncology—and what it means to not just survive cancer, but live fully beyond it.

You're full of SHIT! Piers Morgan & Brian Keating take down Moon Landing Denier

The Artemis II mission to the dark side of the moon will be the furthest human beings have ever travelled from Earth. It's the precursor to a return to the lunar surface and perhaps even reaching Mars. But still, there are those who say humans have never set foot on the Moon, such as Bart Sibrel. Once punched in the face by Buzz Aldrin, he says he’s on a CIA hitlist because he blew the whistle on the original moon landings being fake. He speaks to Piers Morgan opposite Dr. Brian Keating, distinguished professor of Physics at UC San Diego and host of the ‘Into The Impossible’ podcast. Then Piers is joined by former astronaut Charlie Duke, who was the youngest person to walk on the Moon, and Star Trek’s very own Captain Kirk, William Shatner.

What Makes a Life Worth Living?

Dr. Ezekiel “Zeke” Emanuel has spent his career confronting medicine's toughest questions—how we care for the sick, how we face death, and whether living longer always means living better. An oncologist, bioethicist, and one of the key architects of the Affordable Care Act, Zeke has helped shape American healthcare while challenging conventional thinking about life, death, and what makes our years meaningful. His controversial essay, Why I Hope to Die at 75, ignited a fierce debate about aging, longevity, and what makes a life worth living. In a candid and provocative conversation on NO TIME BUT NOW, Zeke, William Shatner, and Melanie Shatner Gretsch explore the difficult choices surrounding end-of-life care, breakthroughs in cancer treatment, and a healthcare system where money too often comes before compassion. Drawing on their own experiences with stage four cancer, William and Melanie join Zeke in exploring the toll of illness, the realities of aging, and his remarkably candid views on how Zeke wants to live, how he wants to be remembered, and what he's unwilling to sacrifice for more time.
