In each episode of the recently launched Mattasher Show, I invite one of today’s top thinkers to join me for a journey of intrigue and discovery. In conversations with everyone from mathematicians to musicians, best-selling authors to actors, astronauts to fortune 500 CEOs, we delve into topics ranging from philosophy, culture, science, to the arts.
We begin in Key West, where my guests visit a special location in and around the city. After cruising the sites, they head to Moray Bay. There, my guests settle into a relaxing atmosphere where free-flowing thoughts and inspirations unfold. The heart of each episode is a long-form conversation about topics the guest knows deeply, but rarely gets to discuss. Visit your local PBS affiliate to find showtimes!
Radio show & Podcast
I am host of the Mattasher Radio Show on Keys Talk FM. The radio show is a continuation of The Filter podcast, and every episode of the radio show is released to the podcast feed as well. The Filter is about how we perceive the world, the lenses through which we view our reality. The radio show continues this theme, but also highlights the fringes of science and culture.
