Summary

Happiness can be found in unusual places. Dr Laurie Santos returns with a new season that takes us to the fun frontiers of fandom with Star Trek's Wesley Crusher; to the world's happiest country in the depths of winter; and inside the ranch that inspired The Grateful Dead's Mickey Hart to exclaim "YOLO!".

And you'll hear what it's like to chug the hottest hot sauce on the planet to get a rush of pleasure.

The Happiness Lab Returns September 6 - wherever you get your podcasts.
