Through stories of wit, friendship, and one final unfinished collaboration—the “Legacy Project”—they reflect on the moments that truly endure.\n\nBecause in the end, it’s not the résumé that people remember.\nIt’s the stories.\n\nThe ones that get retold.\nThe ones that make us laugh.\nThe ones that quietly shape who we become.\n\nThis episode is a tribute to a friend, to the power of storytelling, and to the idea that our real legacy lives on in the lives we touch."}
