If the world were ending tomorrow, and you could have one Last Meal, what would it be? This simple question provides a platform from which to tackle life’s big questions. The conversations we rarely hear, but need to be having. Standing firmly in the impasse between food and philosophy, Last Meal explores the deeper discourse of our lives — wisdom, legacy, regret, ethics, beliefs, and the experiences that shape who we are. From world-renowned thinkers to cultural icons, guests are presented with their choice of Last Meal before sharing an intimate, thought-provoking conversation. The idea is simple: when faced with the ultimate moment of reflection, what truly matters? Often introspective, sometimes humorous but always personal and profound, Last Meal unveils a unique side of some of the most brilliant and compelling minds. The act of sharing a meal creates a unique space for honesty, allowing conversations to flow in unexpected and revealing directions. At its core, Last Meal is about what people hold onto when everything else fades away. The final meal itself is more than just a dish — it’s a representation of memories, culture, and personal significance. A childhood comfort food, a decadent indulgence, or a nostalgic favourite — each choice tells a story. Through these candid stories, each guest reveals something essential about themselves, before exploring the digestible wisdom they’ve accrued over their time on the planet. Season One of Last Meal premieres Wednesday, March 12, 2025, with weekly episodes running through June. With a diverse lineup of guests, including world-renowned scientists, authors, activists, and cultural icons, the series offers a rare glimpse into the minds of those who have shaped industries, influenced societies, and challenged conventional thinking. This is a show that goes beyond small talk. It’s raw, unscripted conversations where nothing is off-limits. Some discussions are deeply personal, others intellectually rigorous, and many are unexpectedly funny. In a world where conversations are often superficial or performative, Last Meal offers something different—an honest, meaningful exchange that cuts through the noise. Because when the clock is running out, people tend to speak the truth. This is Last Meal — Conversations to have before you die. ***
