Hey, it's Rachel. We're bringing you a special encore episode this week from one of my very favorite

guests, because it seems like he's everywhere these days.

Ted Danson is in a new show called A Man on the Inside on Netflix.

The other week, he got a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Golden Globes, and it turns out

he's really good at being a podcast host too,

because the show he launched after we talked to him last summer is a big hit.

So yes, I am riding shotgun on the Ted Danson Bandwagon,

which means we're putting my conversation with Ted at the top of your feed.

Enjoy.

How often do you think about death?

Oh, a lot.

I had so much fun doing a classic spy, but halfway through it, I went, oh, don't die.

And then I go, wait a minute.

What you're really saying is you are so happy to be doing what you're doing, having so much fun, don't take it away from me,

life.

I'm Rachel Martin, and this is Wildcard, the game where cards control the conversation.

Each week, my guest chooses questions at random from a deck of cards.

Pick a card one through three, questions about the memories, insights, and beliefs that have shaped them.

I will say, Teddy, Teddy, this is your life.
