He’s back for the fourth time!

Dan Buettner—National Geographic fellow, explorer, longevity expert, and creator of the Blue Zones—returns and this time we’re diving into his brand-new New York Times best-selling book: Blue Zones: One Pot Meals.

Dan and Rip roll up their sleeves and go page by page through his delicious new recipes—from savory Tex-Mex breakfast skillets to mushroom walnut bolognese, roasted cauliflower, creamy mac ‘n cheese, and even chewy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies.

They talk about:

  • Why long-term consistency is the only real longevity “hack.”
  • How the world’s longest-lived people eat (and why beans are still king).
  • The flavor “secrets” revealed by analyzing 650,000 top-rated recipes with Stanford’s AI lab.
  • How Dan is bringing Blue Zones wisdom into kitchens, frozen food aisles, and even entire cities.
  • Why all five original Blue Zones are sadly waning—but also, the exciting announcement of a brand-new Blue Zone that’s on the rise.

This conversation is equal parts mouthwatering, inspiring, and hopeful—and if you’re ready to supercharge your longevity with easy, affordable, maniacally delicious meals, you’re in the right place.
