Description

Host Andy Richter asks the same three questions to each guest: Where do you come from? Where are you going? What have you learned? These three simple questions, when answered honestly and thoughtfully, are enough to provide a pretty complete picture of who a person is. The answers are what Andy always wants to know about people. This will not be a one-sided process, as Andy won’t shy away from getting personal himself.

yeah I realize Waze sucks LOL I drive about an hour and 20 minutes each way to work every day always wants me to go through the toll booths instead of just bypassing it with my iPass. I am not driving through Chicago to get to work when I can take the other wave and get to work on time. as I don't work in Chicago I work in the suburbs but it always wants me to go through Chicago. so what GPS would you recommend Andy? By the way love your podcast!

I sure wish Andy would have let Jane speak. He's just yammering onnnnn with his stories rather than interviewing his guest. Ugh.
