Hey there, it's Sanjay. Our next season of Chasing Life begins next week, and we're

0:09.0

going to explore the remarkable ways in which we all perceive the world through our senses.

0:15.5

Spoiler alert, there's more than five of them. In the meantime though, I want to introduce

0:21.0

you to a brand new podcast, something courtesy of my friend and my colleague, Anderson Cooper.

0:28.2

It's called All There Is, and I want to share that very first episode with you right here.

The idea for his podcast came about when Anderson was sorting through his mother, Gloria Vanderbilt's

0:39.1

belongings after she died in 2019. He documented all of this, an extraordinary journey, coming

0:47.0

2:05.6

sold a few months ago, and so I have a couple of weeks to pack up all my mom's things and

2:12.8

move out. I came up with this idea a couple of weeks ago while I've been going through

2:20.6

my mom's things to make this podcast about going through all the stuff that's left behind.
