Episode description

A.J. Jacobs is an author, humourist and journalist, who has written four New York Times bestsellers, including 'The Year of Living Biblically' , 'The Know-It-All: One Man’s Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World, and 'Drop Dead Healthy'.

 

Jacobs discusses his unique life as a 'human guinea pig,' exploring different ways of living through immersive year-long experiments such as living according to all biblical rules, striving for physical perfection, and living like America's Founding Fathers for his latest book, 'The Year of Living Constitutionally.'


A.J. discusses his motivations behind these experiments, and recounts his experiences with radical honesty, health regimens, and biblical literalism.
