Description

In this episode of Read Between the Wines, we welcome Dan Buettner—National Geographic explorer, Emmy Award-winning producer, and New York Times best-selling author. Dan is the visionary behind the Blue Zones, regions from Okinawa to Sardinia and Costa Rica where people regularly live into their 90s and 100s in remarkable health.

We explore the secrets of longevity: plant-based diets, strong communities, daily movement, and storytelling that makes science memorable. Dan shares insights from his Netflix documentary Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones and his new book The Blue Zones Kitchen: One Pot Meals.

And yes—wine lovers will discover why moderate red wine is central to Blue Zone cultures, enjoyed daily as part of meals, joy, and connection.
